Either way it held up pretty well.

if texas wasnt such a redneck mile event that corvette would have never ran over 150MPH the way it was

the ECTA would never let a car do 200+ without a legit cage, head containment system, fire suppression system, yaw sensors that control the fuel system/ignition in the event of a spin, or licensing runs

unsanctioned land speed racing events FTW! errr i mean FTL

UPDATE

they couldnt find any replacement tires for the camaro with the custom 13" wide wheels, so they put on the 20’s…

The car went 239mph

"Well out to lunch with the wife, and got a txt from Steven. Kellys TT Camaro just went 239 mph on 20inch wheels… That’s right 20’s… They didn’t floor it til the 1/2 marker…

Like said in a earlier post, LMR is a group of TRUE RACERS !!!"

^like i said. 230 wouldnt be an issue if everything goes right. 9mph beyond that is doing work. with the correct tire size back on the car i bet it would have done over 245 on that run

well that 239mph isn’t the final number of the day. They still have some more runs to do.
