Cadillac Racing's lastest weapon is based on the all-new ATS-V. It is built by GM motorsports partners Pratt & Miller, constructors for the infamous Corvette endurance racing team.
The ATS-V.R is now a fully homologated FIA GT3 car, which allows it entry to over thirty international series and events, including the GT class of the Pirelli World Challenge, in which Cadillac has had much success racing the CTS-V.R.
The ATS-V.R would make the perfect accompaniment to the roster of GT3 vehicles already in the game.
