Sealed asphalt. Much better than the asphalt lots but not as good as concrete

The $40 entry fee is MUCH more affordable! I'd like to try this in the V to see how the magnetic suspension handles and kick a lil Mustang butt in the process

Good luck with that in an auto, unless you have the option of locking the car is a certain gear.

Yes, it has a manual sport mode. Suspension is also adjustable. The CTS-V went around the Ring in less than 8 minutes.

So the manual mode allows you to hold a single gear without any up or down shifts? If so, then it's definitely doable. Wonder how well it would do.

Yes. I can do it with the shifter or the paddle shifters. It would be tricky for sure due to all the instant on tap torque. The V missed it's calling as a drift machine cuz it will murder tires at will. haha.
