Cadillac STS vs 5spd

Just curious if anyone has raced one off the line?? They are heavy cars, but once they get going they move.
0-60 1/4 mile
1991 Cadillac STS 8.6 16.6
1992 Cadillac STS 8.1 16.2
1993 Cadillac STS 7.2 15.4
1995 Cadillac STS 6.4 14.7
1996 Cadillac STS 6.4 14.7
1998 Cadillac STS 6.8 15.1


looking for the 99 plus times...

Bench racers!...Quoting magazine times is so pointless

The results vary widely depending on, elevation, road material, road condition, humidity, temperature, wind, who the driver is, how much skill they have, how much skill they use, shift points(rpm), shift style(on a manual), traction or lack of, torque-converter load up or none, if the car is a factory ringer or a lemon, equipment used to test, optional equipment(additional weight added), level of fuel tank, engine temperature, and much much more.

Ummm... yeah that is why I asked if anyone has raced one???? If I could find one (that would race) then I would let you know how it turned out, but I can't
