Texas Mile - March 24-25 - Who's Going?
We are going to bring a few cars to this deal including the 996TT. Anybody else going? Should be a cool turnout of cars. the last event had a Ruf RT12 that ran in the 180's (very strong for a street car).
I would be happy if my 996TT ran low 170's.
Speed TV is supposed to be there covering the event too. Should be pretty cool.

Mark it is Standing start, You would represent us very well as when you have
a full mile you can do soft launch. The car that won last year had really funky aero body kit on it (It was a TT Viper I think, it is all on their web site)
My car obviously will not be ready: Go Markski !!
VR Alex said he was going to make a mystery appearance...

I already called and they said I can run with the current safety features I have on the car.
Now I need some tires.... I have all these other tires but not good for this type of high speed... anyone interested in lending me a set just for the weekend? Im assuming good Y or Z rated tires would be good. This 1/4 stuff has put a major dent in my wallet... the axles, tires, subframe mounts, suspension, transportation, renting the track, etc...

That is a fine offer Doc, Marek you should take him up on it.
You should have tires that are almost new and I would inspect them in
good sunlight (off the car) before running. Mark you would have alot of fun,
I intend to do it next year.
