anyone know what a Cadillac Devill would be classified as in autocross?

I looked and haven't found much, if it has a v8 GT stock?

yes my car will be in the shop, yes I may be renting a car and yes I may be getting something more fun then a Cavalier, and yes I don't work on Sunday and there is an Autocross locally.

Cadillac DeVille, let's see...

i think it would run in EFS (Extra F***ing Slow)

actually, probably F-Stock or G-Stock

MSCC might put you in GT Stock though. You gotta figure it's about the same setup as the CrownVic. The only difference is that the newer Deville's are FWD. Because of this you might be in F Stock still. Personally, I hope it's GT Stock. More championship points for me.

Unlawful behavior deplicted thats what.

But the cav as a alterantive to the maro,just to see,I'd rent it over the Deville.
Personally I'd be figuring out how to fix my own,and run it.No offence Mustangeater,people are different.

THe Maro is being fixed, all $1600 of it.

I am picking up the Cavalier tomorrow, the Caddy didn't have unlimited miles on it, and if I do take it autocrossing its a bit of a drive. Only reason I was avoiding the Cavalier slightly is the girlfriend has one, so its sort of a been there done that type of thing.

Good thing I got the Cavalier over the Caddy, I already put 110 miles on it, thats my day limit and I still have to drive an hour to the autocross and an hour back.

I gotta rember to fillup hte tank, they charge $5.20 a gallon if they have to fill it up for me.
