Car guys.. Texas Mile Pics

[2jzmk3]

Texas mile is basically a open air field where street cars get to make a full mile all out run, for top speed records, mostly all street cars.

the one that just passed i didn't get to make it with my car because of last minute problems, but i will be there in march if any local guys wanna come check it out. its a realy good time if you are into cars.
there is a really wide selection of all types of super cars. Ford gts, Lambos, Vettes, bikes, Supras, etc..

its held twice a year, the next one is in march.

It's painter's tape. They use so they don't scratch up the paint on those high speed runs. Gravel, rocks, etc. The tape come right off with no damage to the paint.

Nice. Nice

It's also used to close air pocket gaps. Allows the car to be that much more aerodynamic as well.

It protects the paint from rocks and rubber, and it can be used to seal off parts of the front end for better aerodynamics.
