McLaren’s 12C is no stranger to competition, but whilst we’ve seen the best that the Ferrari 458 Italia, the Lamborghini Aventador, the Pagani Zonda and even the Porsche 911 Turbo can offer, we didn’t imagine Cadillac’s CTS-V would emerge on the radar, even with that brutal 556hp 6.2-litre V8.

We imagine that the model in the below video has received a tweak or two about the engine bay – plus some aftermarket performance tyres – since the Caddy has the 616hp $251,000 McLaren well in-hand throughout this rolling start drag race.

One wonders how the brand new 650S would get on…
