While I was offshore the girlfriend went to take photos of the Texas Mile competition in Goliad, Texas. While there she bumped into a car many of us here know. I told her she saw a legend. Said it sounded rediculous and always had a crowd. I believe in the standing mile it managed 204mph.

Onto the pics...

Again...I'm VERY jealous she got to see this car. I'm very happy however she got pics

Yea I'm very sad I didn't get to go with her. Offshore has me away for a while yet

Yea I heard you had a few issues with the Supra but still setting a new record at 246mph is nothing to cough at! She also saw the red GT TT you had there! I look forward to seeing you again at TWS, I need to stop and chat next time! I was the guy helping Tony with his Viper last time at Drivers Edge.

She didn't know HOW "famous" Big Red was until I freaked when I saw the pics! She's a good girlfriend however who knows to take pics of the old cars as well as the nice new ones

holy crap, first thing I noticed was how high the carb is now and the new intake and spacer... then I saw the later pic with the new cowl hood. Car is such a beast, but I have to admit I liked it better with less cowl - just that much more of a surprise to see what appears to be just a hot rod clear 200 mph (assuming one isn't looking at the massive meats on the thing that is

)
