I think thats pretty impressive for a $60k 4200lb American luxury sedan.
There is a video (on YouTube?) from GM that shows the 'ring run from an in-car camera. Sorry don't have a link, but I think it can I accessed it from a Cadillac Website.

It is pretty cool. As I recall the driver was John Heinricy, a real hot-shoe with quite a few SCCA national championships & many other racing wins.

Check it out.
