Whats your best guess on my Texas mile upcoming run speed?

I going to guess you can hit the 1 mile run in about 20 seconds @ 160mph.

haha assuming he runs a 11 second quarter mile...he would need to average nearly 300mph for the rest of the run to do it in 20 seconds....

I'm guessing 29.5 seconds at 179 mph. That's assuming a pretty spot on launch and shifting. I doubt you could do faster than bout 184 mph (pretty much physics won't allow it...), and under 30 seconds is pretty damn good.

Yeah you're right that would be impossible, lol. Here is a video of a Hennessey ZR1 standing 1 mile run. Based off the timing of the video looks like the Hennessey ZR1 did it in about 29 seconds @ 196.7mph.

I looked at the timing...looked more like about 26-27 seconds. A couple seconds is a huge difference though over a mile.
