You can rent the runway in Oscoda, Michigan. We might go up there in the next week. You want to come run too? No rules, just 11,000 ft. of smooth concrete.

How did you do on the last 1/4 outing that you went to? Did you get that 8? If you posted I missed it, sorry.

Landspeed Strategy is keeping your name in the record book as long as possible. We still hold the A/BGMS class at Maxton from 2001. It's only 197.3 but has stood for 7 years. Our Viper has tags, insurance and everything legal to run the street class and that's where we will run next time out

I think you've run the mile your first time and broke something in the driveline, right? Did you get a clean run? What was your mph?

I hit 214.7XX at the Texas Mile.. I ran out of gear so I only made one pass.. I didn't break anything that time.
I hope to have more gear in October.. I am going to need it to try to get 230+

That's awesome for your fist time running the mile That was smart to only run the 1 pass after realizing you needed to make a gearing change.

Safety is paramount at these speeds and good luck on your goal for 230+

Oct at Goliad should be interesting

I'm thinking about taking the ACR out in Oct. What safety equipment do I need? How much will it cost to run? Lets see if I can break 150mph N/A...

If you are referring to the Texas Mile. All you need is
4 pt. rollbar
fire ext
fire suit, gloves and shoes
helmet

All of the above will get you the greenlight to go as fast as your car will go for about $250...as many times as you want.

I'm not sure what "tech" is involved with N20, but I know of several who have run the Texas Mile with it.
