About the Texas Mile

The Texas Mile has grown rapidly since our inaugural event in October 2003. Participants come from all edges of the United States, Canada and Mexico to test themselves and their motorized equipment on the fastest and most challenging 1-mile track in the world. They achieve their top speed in 1-Mile and shut down in a 1/2-Mile. This bi-annual Motorsports Festival is created for performance enthusiast - Welcoming Motorcycles, Performance Street Cars, Race Cars and Land Speed Racers.

Spectators enjoy seeing the cars and motorcycles on the track and visiting with the participants in the paddock. There are onsite concessions to enjoy while at the event. For more details, see the rules and regulations section for participants and spectators.

Get off the highway and come out to The Texas Mile. It is like running on a straight 1 1/2 mile section of open highway without the fear of tickets and jail time. A High Speed Shoot-out and Land Speed Racing Venue that compares to the likes of the legendary Bonneville that beckons one to "Drive in Your World, Race in Ours"!

Unlimited Runs for Two or Three Days
Show what YOU have on a ONE-MILE straight (run wide open on an airport runway in Texas- 130mph, 160mph, 190mph & 200+mph)
Compete for the best of the best in your class

Get the chance to join the 200+mph club of Texas
Test your equipment, prove something to yourself
Heck, just come out for a good time.

... Honestly, I don't trust my 370 above 120... Going 160 is this thing... Ehhhh, I'll leave that for if/when I get a GTR...
Correction, I trust it will get to 160+, I don't have the balls to be in the car while it's going 160, LOL!!!

Robert_K · 06-05-2012, 06:14 AM

LOL I've had mine 140+ many of times and hit 160 twice.

I don't promote high-speed runs on public roads;

Robert_K · 06-10-2012, 10:36 AM

Anyone interested?

Initial Z · 06-10-2012, 02:06 PM
