Texas Mile Coverage

The Texas Mile

The standing mile event is located at an abandoned airstrip with a three hours drive away from Houston, Texas. It's straight into no-where-land. 

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"!

We brought 3 cars to run the mile. A Mercedes E55 AMG, a Mercedes C63 AMG, and a BMW M5.

Here are the best slips for the day

E55 176mph

C63 162mph

M5 166mph
