    2025 5BW updates

    Maybe they should consult with Joe Jacoby?

    CT5-V Floor mats with red piping?

    Anyone know the part number for these floor mats? I saw them in a post for a 20th anniversary car. And look, a red center rear belt!

    What’s next?

    You’re going to need something a little bigger to tow a Blackwing. I’m doing more shopping for motorcycles at this point. Looking to trade in my 1250 GS on a 1300 GS. I’m also really intrigued by the new Royal Enfield H452 as something a little smaller and cheaper. That said, if the 4BW is...

    GM Service Manuals - is the Blackwing version the same as the general CT5 version?

    FWIW, the last thing I ordered off eBay that came with a CD was loaded up with nasty malware. I ended up flattening and reloading the machine I installed it on. They were supposed to be drivers for an OBD II interface.

    I see a lot of people not liking the sunroof option

    Adds a fair amount of weight at the highest point on the car, and takes away headroom that a lot of folks need - especially when wearing a helmet.

    GM Service Manuals - is the Blackwing version the same as the general CT5 version?

    If you go to Site Maintenance you can pay for a 3-day pass to access the actual service manual, then print to PDF what you need. I have no idea what is on that CD on eBay. In the FSM, the Blackwing is just another trim level with some specific options (e.g. brakes and LT4 motor).

    Alignment Advice

    That also could be that the steering wheel was slightly off center. We are talking about 0.035 deg off center.

    CT4 on the Chopping Block?

    I tried last year to order an SS 1LE, all the dealers had lists of folks waiting for an 1LE allocation. For a mostly track car that I could still live with on the street it was ~$15K more to go 4BW over SS 1LE.

    Corner Weight of a Blackwing

    Yes, it is pretty much the YOLO build. No sunroof, with CCBs, M6, CF 1&2, top tier seats with CF backs.

    Corner Weight of a Blackwing

    How much fuel? This was my buddies 4BW and my 5BW, both with full fuel.

    Finally, a good blackwing hat.

    I had to go to the New Era web site to find a sizing chart for the 39THIRTY hat. Based on that, I ordered a S/M.

    The future Blackwing

    It really is a track by track decision. As I recall, what killed it for Summit Point was when they* published standards for the equipment a fire department should have for fighting EV fires. It made no economic sense for the track owners to invest in that new equipment at this time, so they...

    Cadillac V-Club

    I've been a member for a couple of years now and I think it's a good deal. The first year there was no local chapter for me, which definitely limited the activities I could participate in, but the new chapter is small and growing. Nationally, the club did five subsidized cost track days last...

    CT5-V Winter tire set up. Pilot Alpin PA4

    I can’t seem to find those sizes on tire rack.

    Factory carbon issues

    All of GMs carbon fiber has a brownish hue. It’s the UV protectant they add to the clear coat and has been that way since the C6 ZR1. It’s one of the ways to tell OEM from aftermarket carbon fiber.

    This was weird.

    It’s called indexing the windows. Basically the car needs to figure out where all the way down and all the way up are for the one touch open and close. My corvettes all did this too.

    QQ: what's latest status on magnesium wheels?!?

    You’re right. I must’ve accidentally changed it to KG, you can see it in the photo.

    QQ: what's latest status on magnesium wheels?!?

    Nope. There was a set of Mg proofs that ended up on eBay a while ago. I assume they were created for testing. I’d love a set if they were available and would hold up.
