Exclamation **LMR TX Mile Corvette Pics**

We recently made some upgrades to our Texas Mile Corvette. Car has already been on our dyno jet for baseline pulls 18lbs of boost(1300+rwhp). We will be strapping it down to a loaded mustang dyno soon for the high boost pulls. We will be outlining the hole in the hood with Carbon Fiber. Enjoy!!

Nice.

So much for all that aerodynamics work yall did before. Maybe setup a clear aerodynamic bubble for when you're on the mile so you can still show off the goods?
