Default **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!!

At mile racing speeds, won't the intake protruding create some unwanted drag / turbelence?

Thanks for all the nice words guys!! This thing is a monster, and I have been driving it to and from work the past two days putting some miles on her! (street car)

Should have some time next week to hit the mustang dyno.

^ Just watched a speed special on Hennesy. I'm not sure when it was filmed but there was a ford GT being set up for the TX mile, expected to be 2500hp...might have some competition there!!
