    Texas Mile

    A.R.T has built a bad machine that I ran at the Texas Mile setting a new speed record of 168. The car is incredible, it's like the old days, new school mixed with old school. The car pictured below just received it's new crate 440 Hemi with Kook's Headers, Corsa Exhaust, KW Suspension, Forgeline Wheels and New Tires. I had a blast running this car and wanted to thank A.R.T (American Racing Technologies) out of Austin for the incredible build.
    The car will be featured on several magazines coming up and really makes this car awesome as a daily driver. Hope you guys enjoy the pictures.

    Hey bud, I don't know if your aware of this or not. But we have this football deal. Where if you set the record, you get this electronic football award that goes in your signature. If you can provide proof of the run (post a pic), it's yours now for the NA open class. I think you've earned it.

    WOW, I'm sorry I missed seeing you run. I was sitting w/ Lou in the Magnum. We may have met. I was not aware of ART here in Austin. I will have to get them involved in our local club.

    Nice run!

    The car is still in Texas I believe the slip is in the car. I will ask the guys at ART to post the time slip.

    BTW, I had an email from Cody and it sounds like he is bringing a Challenger, Ford GT & a couple of vipers with him this time.

    This should be fun! Let the records fall or maybe that should be fly........
