Would probably be LMR's old Tejano blue if I had to guess. Was running close to mid 200s 3 or 4 years ago.

That Blue Z06 got an extra 600hp before it was sold, Im guessing it would be good for 245 in the mile now.

Of course can speculate but before it's done it's just speculation.

Texas Mile, Beeville

ERL short block
Driven by me

Arnold probably has the fastest C6 street vette I've seen at the Mile. Then again, people get rear end hurt over "street car", etc.

Full interior, functional air conditioning, would drive from coast to coast without discomfort...

That's my definition. The second a cage goes in or the creature comforts come out, it's a race car in my book.
