Correct ! |
The Texas Mile is time (and fuel/tires:D) well spent.

222 mph. Wow! Is all that stuff on the cars to help against the kicked up debri?

I believe a stock LS3 will be 160ish.
It takes a bunch more hp to get another 20-40 mph at the top. Just guessing with out any real world experience of any kind but I would am thinking that around 700 hp would be needed to break near 190 mph. Others with experience can chime in, it would be enlightening to know. |
Stock ZR1s have run the Texas Mile in the low 180's...I got to 178. It's all about the shifting...!

I have a ZR1 with the 710 Lingenfilter package and did 183 at the Texas Mile in October. First time to an event like this, so I am sure my shifting left a lot to be desired. It was one hell of a rush to go from a stand still to 180+- in a mile!

It may have taken more than a mile (not sure as there were no markings) but I have hit 175 in my LS3 and it had more in it. Im guessing im putting down about 440hp and 430tq to the wheels.
Suprising the added power needed at those speeds, for the measured mile. |
Cool video, is that an airplane landing strip they use for the event?
