The 2008 Cadillac #8 Remington Shaving CTS-V is a GT race car by Cadillac.

It appears in Forza Motorsport 3.

Synopsis[]

Based on the first generation Cadillac CTS-V, the SCCA CTS-V was unveiled at the 2004 North American International Auto Show as Cadillac's entry into the GT class of the SCCA World Challenge series. Due to the road car and the race car being designed at around the same time, the two cars share many similar components, including but not limited to, the 5.7L V8 engine, the front and rear suspension, and the steering system.[1]

Prior to the 2008 season, Cadillac would end their factory support of the CTS-Vs and sell two of the cars to McCann Racing who would race as Team Remington Shaving.[2] Even with the change in team, Pilgrim would continue to pilot the #8, while the #16 would now be driven by team owner, Michael McCann. While Pilgrim would end up taking 8 podiums in the #8, he would never manage to take a win in the car. Even without a win however, Pilgrim would still finish 2nd in the drivers' championship, with McCann a couple of positions behind in 7th. Cadillac would once again finish 3rd in the constructors' championship.[3][4][5] Cadillac would fully leave the championship after the 2008 season, but would return for the 2011 season with a new version of the car, now based on the coupe version of the second generation model.[6]

Variants[]

The CTS-V appears in two livery variants:
