I don't know but it will eventually (like everything) end up on YouTube.

California lost at the start and then kept up pretty much stationary till finish.

CTS-V is considerably more powerful and would accelerate better at high speeds, but it couldn't/shouldn't pull away like that at the start.

Is there a video of the CTS-V vs California race up anywhere yet?

It is a slow and messy track, almost like karting track. Laptimes can get quite random. What I don't understand is how it won California in a dragrace...

Faster than the SLS? Is it possible they want to make this car look good?

How it could be slower than the CTS-V Wagon, and how this two are quicker than the sls amg and v12 vantage?
Very dissapointing about TG US
