I may run the Texas mile.....your thoughts?
I will most likely run the Texas mile in October this year. I have no idea what i will end up at speed wise but have had my ecu speed limiter removed by Z1. I have the 7AT tranny and the GTM TT stage 2 setup but on low psi setting. I will probably remove my carbon fiber hood and put my stock hood back on just for the run. I have the stock bridgestones on the front and Advan Neova AD08's on the back.
Any other performance suggestions you got? |

The issue will not be directly power but also aerodynamics depending on how fast you plan to go.
Put it this way, a stock Mustang GT has broken the 160 group a year or so ago and some boosted ones were in the high 170/low 180. Power was not the issue but aerodynamics.

+1 for aero like taping your seams. power will only do so much since drag increases a lot more with speed.
