Okay, it’s not time yet, that’s not until March, and it’s only racing against myself/the clock/ the radar gun, but it’ll still be fun! What I’m on about is the Texas Mile!
The Texas Mile is a 1 mile standing start shootout in Goliad Texas that specializes in letting you push your car to the limits. This March 26th, I’ll be pushing my 2000 Corvette as fast as it can go in 1 mile. Between now and then, is a lot of prep work and planning. I’ve got my registration in and dues paid, but here’s a run down of what I’ve got left to do:
- Oil pressure sensor replacement [relocating while I'm doing it, thanks TPE]
- New injectors, possibly a BAP – just priced some injectors from Dallas Performance for a nice price from Taylor
- Fuel pressure sensor
- Retune – Will be swinging through Either Dallas Performance or England Green on the way to the mile
- New tires – Thinking nitto NT555′s
- Fix the truck to pull it down there – almost there, just springs to do now
- find a trailer to pull it on
- Book hotels for the way down and down there
- submit medical release and tech inspection forms
- install fire extinguisher
Wow, the list isn’t long but it is expensive and time consuming…
Totally sweet, dude, can’t wait to hear (and maybe see a video?) of how it goes! Rock it out!
