Cadillac CTS-V
During last weekend's One Lap stop at Road America, a tricky, 4.1-mile circuit of asphalt twists and turns, one of the contestants found out just how tough One Lap can be. Road America features multiple heavy braking zones with deep gravel run-offs at most corners and straights where some One Lap cars see upwards of 160 mph.
At turn 12, things turned ugly for a black Cadillac CTS-V piloted by Howard LaFever.
According to Lago, here's what happened:
Reports are conflicting -- LaFever allegedly claims no brakes -- but the recipe is obvious: The CTS-V is approaching turn 12, a sharp left, at over 100 mph. It doesn't slow. The car turns, presumably the driver's effort to make the turn, and skips across the gravel trap before going airborne and flipping onto its roof. The damage looks terrifying, but LaFever reportedly walked away nothing more than a cut on his finger.
