Cadillac V-Series.R LMDh Testing on Wet at Imola!
Рет қаралды 54,632
Күн бұрынAfter all, it wasn't so sci-fi to hope to capture the Cadillac V-Series.R in the calm of a test day here in Italy. A couple of days ago Cadillac Racing was at Imola Circuit to test their LMDh car ahead of the 2024 season, during which the Italian track will host a round of the FIA WEC (World Endurance Championship). And they opted to showcase the car in all its glory, in an exposed gloss carbon fiber finish.
I was at the second day, out of two, of testing. This video is all about the afternoon when a couple of rain showers wet the track allowing the team to test the V-Series.R in those conditions. Full dry footage coming soon!
The Cadillac has been developed under the "Le Mans Daytona h" (LMDh) regulations which allows it to be fielded alongside Le Mans Hypercar (LMH) entries in the Hypercar class of the FIA WEC or in the GTP class of the IMSA SportsCar Championship. Compared to Le Mans Hypercar (LMH) rule set, in which there's much more freedom in designing the car, LMDh teams are forced to rely on one of the 4 chassis manufacturers chosen by ACO and IMSA (Dallara, Ligier, Multimatic and Oreca) in order to have a base from which to build their own vehicle. Cadillac continued their partnership with Dallara, taking most of the experience from their previous DPi-V.R into the new project.
The V-Series.R is powered by a Cadillac LMC55R 5.5-litre DOHC V8 linked to a 7-speed sequential gearbox and to the mandatory 50kW hybrid system.

When I was at Le Mans, this was second only to the NASCAR G56 for the most raucous engine sound. Comfortably the loudest Hypercar. Praise be to Cadillac/GM for bringing some good ol' American thunder to the WEC after the Corvette went flat-plane and lost its voice.

@@MattLitkeRacing me neither lol trust me. They do make "jack stand" sleeves that fit around the airjacks to provide a solid mechanical brace between chassis and the pavement, but regular jack stands in the usual spots would work too I'm sure. I just really like the idea of getting all four corners off the ground in about 2 seconds by plugging in an air line instead of dragging the floor jack all over the place and going through that whole song and dance. Especially with a lowered car, it's a pain.

Hi Bozzy. First off, let me applaud you on another gem of a video. You always manage to make filming through all those layers of fencing and trees look so easy and all while tracking the racecars like a Boss.👏👏👏 The overspray and rooster tails make for great cinema as well. Love this beast of a Caddy, especially decked out in a suit of carbon. My goodness, that V8 sounds so tough and glorious at the same time and the shifts sound almost violent. Damn! What a serious machine!🔥 Thanks for sharing, sir. Totally enjoyed it as always and I wish you a wonderful start to the Autumn season.😎🤙🏼

Hello Mick! I couldn't have hoped for anything better, to be honest. The LMH/LMDh car I wanted to record the most this year on a private test day, without any racing livery and with a light touch of rain to see how aero flows work. I still have to get used to the idea of hearing a NASCAR-sounding machine approaching and then seeing an exotic prototype appear 😁 But I'm more than happy with this! Thanks as usual for your kind comment, mate! Greetings 🤗
