I finally got around to doing the Texas Mile in my C5. It was a long haul from Florida but we had a great time. We fell a couple MPH short of 200. We just could not keep the IATs down even while spraying a ton of meth. There's a lot more in the car with better meth tuning and maybe a 100 shot of N20 to keep the inlet temps down. Here is a short video:

Pretty cool vid. Good luck on hitting 200mph.

What's the rundown of the car? 364ci with a vortech/procharger? How big of a supercharger are you running?

The car has a ProLine Racing 406ci iron block with TEA 235 heads. The blower is a Procharger F1R producing 15-16 psi. It puts low-800's to the wheels.

So kool! I'd don't have the cojones to run that but I'd sure like to watch it some time!

I was surprised how much the car moves around above 160-170. It's kind of like being up on plane in a boat. You get used to it after a run or two.
