So who's rooting for M2k

[testorossa1989]

Texas mile is this week and M2kmotorsports is up shortly in their 05 Ford GT. Previously they were in the 293mph area. If they succeed in 300mph they'll break the Guinness records and be the fastest production vehicle. Literally making history and I doubt Chevy will reach 400mph on a combustion motor so we'll own the record for eternity. Cheer our friends on at m2kmotorsports and wish them luck. It would solidify Shelby and Ford's legacy

If its modified does it count as the production record? Id think it would be the fastest mile car in history but not a production car per say.

Production car speed record - Wikipedia

See Rule #3 for the clarification on the WMI number in the VIN. Since M2k isnt the original manufacturer it would not be considered a production car.

Still seriously impressive and the fact that it does it in under a mile is even more extraordinary.

Either way, it was a car produced for the road. Something about those 05-06 GT's make them monsters in the Texas Mile. A true testament to the engineers of the 4v Modulars that these engines, when properly built up, can handle immense power.

That is pretty amazing.

I hope they pull it off.

I remember when the FGTs were running with the pack in the 230-240mph records and then out of nowhere they busted out a 265mph run iirc and it was all over from there as they ran off with the records and no one could keep up with how they just kept getting faster and faster. Seems like it sort of killed the event too cause the FGT was so dominant. It used to be a super popular event to follow but it seems a lot of teams stopped going after these cars started to dominate. They all went onto the half mile events where the Lambos could dominate.

Definitely am pulling for M2K to crack the 300mph mark though!
