The complete Cadillac V Series history

CTS-V Coupe and ATS-V in race trim were some of the best GT3 cars ever made. They look great and with Johnny O'Connell and Michael Cooper behind the wheel they didn't do bad either.

Weird how they brag about the "no lift shift" being in the 2022 CT4-V Blackwing when I'm pretty sure all manual V2's have this feature, or so i've been told.

No, the MN6 V2s do not have no-lift shift (at least, mine doesn't). They just have a solid enough driveline that you don't have to give a shit about matching RPMs.

There are a few conversations here about members using it on their V2, as well as popular websites describing our vehicles having it.

News outlets are buzzing with stories of financial struggles at General Motors. Let's hope the General rides out its fiscal troubles, because if the CTS-V is any indication, GM has finally rediscov...

Well fuck-all if I've owned the car for 6+ years and never fucking knew that. Guess what I'll be doing tomorrow?

Do it. Keep the right foot down and just stab that clutch as quick as you can!

Just a warning though; You’re going to start to get addicted.

Sometimes I miss my STS-V until I punch the throttle in my Coupe!.

How'd it go? I'm at 2 years owning and did not know either. Guess what I'm driving to work tonight?

The weather has not been compatible with full throttle upshifts. Need it to get a bit warmer so my tires will be a bit stickier.

No lift shift is to die for. My cup car had it and it rocks.

 

[Akromius]

All I can say is wow, car feels much faster.

I.... I didn't know.
Is this real? Its not dated April 1, right?

I mean.... I cant wait to try this.
Importantly, is it a function that must be 'turned on' ? Or is it already there, lurking, a secret weapon only for those in the know?
I want to know if anyone has timeslips showing the effect.

I've seen some references to it while poking around in HPtuner, but never messed around with it because I didn't know if it was actually implemented or just stuff that was stuck in there (like cylinder deactivation).

My first concern is finding out if the car actually HAS this and that it's enabled... and finding out withOUT 'just trying it". I mean, I can imagine lots of mechanical carnage.
My car does not interrupt engine operation when I depress the clutch that I've noticed

I found a video where no less than Mr. Heinricy, himself, demonstrates it in a 2009 sedan, on a track. He even misses a shift once and the engine did not explode
Jump to 09:24 for the shifting but the whole video is very good
