Cadillac CTS-V at the Monticello Motor Club in New York.

Apart from the so-called ‘bragging rights’, we really don’t know what Lutz will get out of this, especially if his car – the CTS-V – loses out to rival vehicles.

Then again, it does make for a pretty interesting race. The rules are still murky but we’re hoping that bumping and grinding are perfectly legal.

In any case, GM gave us a quick tour of the Monticello track, the site of what promises to be a wildly entertaining race.
