Default Texas Mile - Here we come!

We're loading up and leaving for texas this morning. We left the tune up at a conservative 1,428rwhp! We have plenty left in reserve for top speed runs.





Wish us luck. If you're headed there, be sure to stop by and say hello. Thanks guys!

Our sales office will be closed until we return.

New Corvette Record for the standing mile! 224 mph by Hinson Motorsports! On low boost!

We loaded up for the night. We decided not to make another pass today when the crosswinds got high. We'll be ready to hit it hard tomorrow morning. There will be another new record tomorrow! Stay tuned as we start turning up the boost!
