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!!
