Exclamation **LMR now has Worlds Fastest 1-Mile Corvette**

Just went 231mph with a 21mph head wind. Going to add some boost to her and try it again first thing tomorrow morning. Hopefully the wind wont be near as bad.










Also set the record for the worlds fastest camaro with a 243mph run but had a valve cover gasket push out and had a flash fire that hurt some wires. We are trying to fix tonight so we can try for the OVERALL record in the morning. 250+ here we come!!

need to reprash that for Worlds fastest vette in the standing mile. Because there are faster C5/C6 vettes in the land speed arena.

Congrats on the new standing mile record.

The wire issue wasn't caused by the fire is was due to the bump at the shut down area shoving the front passenger tire up into the fender well. The wiring was run under the fender and the tire caught it and ripped it all out. The texas mile official are aware of the bump and planned to have it fixed before the october event.

Sweet. Badass mph in both cars. It would be cool if LMR owned the top two record slots for the new track. Best of luck on Sunday!
