Its good that there's a new team coming in. But the only thing I know about Cadillac's as a non-USAian is they are lolloping barges.

Cadillac also produces cars like this for IMSA (GTP class) & WEC (Hypercar class).

To be fair, it's a GM team not technically a "Cadillac" team. GM has a long history in racing including multiple GT class wins at Le Mans.

P.S. HOT TAKE - GM makes the best "Drivers Cars" of act company over the last decade and I'll take that opinion to my grave lol

In addition to things like their competitive LMDh cars, they also have their V-Series performance road cars. The CT5-V Blackwing is the most well known.
