Default 246mph TX Mile 1300hp Supra

I've always had a sweet spot for these cars. Was just talkin with a buddy about the possibility of a ZR1 doing over 250.

244 run

Says 246, but it really didn't seem like it.

I was at the 3/4 mile mark when SW made that run, as soon as I saw him make that pass I said that it had to be a new record. Watch how fast he travels from the 3/4 mile marker to the mile marker in the 246mph video.

Should be interesting to see if he tops it this spring.
AMS is bringing out their 1100rwhp EVO, that should be good as well.

Bayer, I highly doubt there will be a ZR1 hitting 250 or anywhere close to it, the fastest I've ever heard any C6 Vette run the mile was 226 mph by Norm Kroner. The fastest I've witnessed was an LG Motorsport Vette running IIRC 211-215 mph. Only two types of cars have I seen hit 240+ mph, Supras and Gallardos.

Seems like the ZR1 is pretty aerodynamic, I'd just like to see it get to 250. But it's a pricey car to mod, also.

A ZR1 or any really big CI motor most likely won't go that fast in the mile any time soon without a TON of money. They don't rev high enough, they'd be out of their 1:1 gear before the mile was over.

Here's a vid of a 550rwhp 440ci RX7 doing 196mph. He will be attending the texas mile this year with more power, should be intresting.

I think he is gonna come close to the supra's record.

No sir. I'm talking about AMS performance's (in Chicago) 8 second EVO 8.
They are also trying to squeeze out more power before then: http://www.amsracingblog.amsperforma...s-mile-update/

^ ahhh... ok cool.. I would like to see 250 out of the ZR1, not talking about in the standing mile.. Just to clarify.

Man, I've got a hard-on for soo many different vehicles. I must have been Jay leno in my past life.. Now I've been sent back to live in the middle class to learn about debt..

We shall see. There is a good amount of rivalry between the Supra and Viper crowds in this competition. Only, the vipers haven't been much of a competition lately...
