Sunday morning 10/24/2010, MTI Racing set a new Corvette Record at Texas Mile.
Official speed was 216.2 mph
The record is for the Fastest Corvette of all time at the Texas Mile.
On Saturday, new records were set during practice runs at 213 mph. They were countered by another Corvette, but then the next morning the MTI Racing Z06 blasted from zero to 1 mile at 216.2 2mph.
Reese Cox of MTI Racing holds the N/A Corvette record at 206mph.
On Sunday, October 24th, Mike H. (MTI Racing customer) raised the all-out Corvette record to 216.2mph.
Mike is a humble businessman and dock contractor from Savannah, Georgia. His car is ALL STREET. (full interior, no gutting, no weight savings, pump gas)
The 2007 Z06 is powered by 500ci MTI Racing engine using the RHS block and Corvette Magnacharger MP2300 Supercharger. It puts down approx 890 RWHP. We also did some modifications to the transmission and differential to change the gearing and deliver more power to the wheels. Of course, I cannot disclose at this time exactly what the ratios are because that would be advertising our mathematics of going fast. Forgeline wheels add a sinister look to the car with Mickey Thompson drag radials on the rear.
Congratulations to Mike for piloting the fastest Corvette ever to brave the Texas Mile.
Nice work Mike!
