Not trying to rain on the parade, I want to see LSX cars dominating the strip and the mile. But what happened to these?

I guess youre only talking about the Texas record?

And I really wish theyd take that stupid jet car record out of the name, that should not be included.

If I had the money Id build a 3000hp C6 built to do 280+. We gotta show the exotic boys that LSX cars are on top. Hopefully yall have something that is capable of this. May I ask what the setup is on the 4th gen?
