Looking for a manual 5VBW fully optioned (CCB, CF1-2, PDR, etc) preferably with black interior. Will consider multiple exterior colors if rest of options are there.
Anyone use or seen stud extenders for the Blackwings? Would a C7 or C8 set work? Trying to protect the CCBs from idiots and the foam wraps from GM are a PITA to install. Looking for something like this
If you ever see a Blackwing pop up for sale at DCMotors (or a C8 for that matter), just know it was a Spring Mountain track car. They’ll have 9-10k miles, clean carfax, and no ownership history. SM buys them without a warranty from GM for significantly cheaper so any advertised warranty is a...
Have seen this done on other sites for previous generation V's, so figured I'd start one here for the 5th Gens now that we're starting to see some pretty crazy builds. In this post I will track power levels, track times, modifications, etc for both the 4VBW and the 5VBW. Will allow for...
Roshan at BD sent me a video of them running their exhaust/blower only (Maggie 2650) 5VBW in 97* temps in Texas last night. Waiting on him to send me a copy of the time slips, but he said they ran a best of 10.77 @ 13x with a hot lap right behind of 10.78 @ 13x with their best 60' at 1.69...
Had a graphic designer come up with something since I'm not one of the lucky 120 that got one from Cadillac - would love to get a few extra sets of eyes on this and make sure it's accurate and get any feedback before I finalize the design and go into print. It's not my creation, so don't hold...
Harper Cars & Coffee is one of the largest C&C’s in the Mid-Atlantic, boasting over 6,000 cars and taking over the Knoxville West Town Mall parking lot. They are being featured on Cars and Coffee Exposed n August 6th and are expecting nearly double the usual turnout (10k+). They have feature...
Seems like a ton of people on here are going, so figured I'd create a thread so every can post up if they're going and then upload some of their Pics/Videos afterwards.

So it was recently announced that Hennessey Performance will be releasing their H1000 package, offering a 1000hp package for the CT5-V Blackwing, but no price was mentioned, and very few details. I reached out to...
Need to put some miles on my car to get through the break-in period before an HPDE coming up, so looking to make the most of the incredible roads we have here in the Appalachians. If anyone would be interested in joining me for the cruise, consider this an open invite.
Plan is to start in...
Curious if anyone has ever used a ceramic coating like the XPEL Fusion for plastics on their engine bay trim. Thinking air box/tubing, lid, cover, cross bar and other “big pieces” that would be nice to have easy cleaning of before a show. Could also use the ceramic for calipers on some core...
Looking at long term build out options and everything I’m seeing online and hearing from the shops mentioned here is the best we can do is 650-700whp with ported blower, 103mm TB, and maybe a pulley/belt swap.
Meanwhile the C8 guys with the same tuning issues are running huge TT combos with...
Just traded in a C8 Z51 HTC for a new 5VBW. The C8s are great and handle amazingly, but not as functional with kids and required a backup daily. Got lucky annd ended up finding a 6MT w carbon brakes and the other options I wanted a few states over, should have it delivered by end of week. Big...
