Default Congrats to 510 racing on 208mph at Texas Mile
Great to see 510 Race Engineering go 208 MPH at the Texas Mile in March 2013.
Also pleased to see they are using the #1 headers of choice, American Racing Headers

Congratulations to 510.
I ran 215 MPH with a set of 2inch American Racing headers on the same day.

Hoosier A6 or R6. Drag radials are outlawed as they came apart on a couple of cars, Not a pretty sight.

Just to clarify they made contact with the fenderwell from expansion because of miscalculated growth at speed is my understanding, it wasn't purely centrifugal speed that caused seperation right?
