Default TEXAS MILE. Who is going?

On our way down there with one of the cars, a couple bike and the turbo 700xx wheeler. Just seeing who else will be down here this weekend? What are you guys sending down the strip?

I'll be there tomorrow early, but I'm driving my DD to the event. Granted, I could have the fastest TDI of the day

I will be there but I will be a spectator. My buddy is going to be running his cobra R. Maybe if I get lucky I can get a open slot to run my viper.

It was held in Beeville, TX. Just got back from the 18 hour haul to Saint Louis. Had a wonderful time there. The corvette we brought went 209mph on pump gas and had little to no issues. I think thats a record for pump gas?

I also witnessed Kelly Bise's camaro crash. As horrific as it looked I hear the driver is now doing ok.
