    First Annual Mojave Mile Event

    OCPete. Just to make this really clear, this is NOT my creation. This is NOT a GT School event (Although I kind of wish it was....). This event is being put on by a friend of mine and fellow Open Road Racer, Mike Borders who has MKM Racing along with his wife Marsha and partner Keith. They...

    BlackIce, I do not have access to the rules/requirements yet but would be surprised if there was a significant difference from other 1 Mile acceleration events. Richard Hille The GT School

    Fast Freddy, You're F'ed, I mean that in a good way.... :biggrin I also will be running the Bonneville 100. They do not have an Unlimited Class so I will be running their top class which is 175 MPH average. I will be running that event in the Camaro and shooting for another notch on the 200...

    First Annual Mojave Mile Event

    Here's the latest news. I just got off the phone with the promoter and the 150 car limit is slightly flexible, the entry fee will be right around $200 per driver. Registration will be at a hotel very close to the airport and tech inspection will take place on the airport property. While we will...

    Ok folks, I now show 19 interested and five of those committed. Keep them coming. If we get a good size group committed I may be able to set up a Ford GT Corral (special pit area) at the event. Richard Hille The GT School

    Skyrex, The money, unknown amount, does not go to me!! I am not running this event. The promoter is an Open Road Racing friend of mine. As soon as I know how much and where to send the money, I will post the information. Triheart7 - I didn't have you on the list, but you are on there now...

    First Annual Mojave Mile Event

    Obey My Fast, I just found out that entries will be limited to 150 vehicles. I do not yet know what the entry fee will be, but assume $1,000,000 plus or minus $999,500.00 or so..... :wink I really have no idea what it will be. If I can get firm commitments from our Forum members, I can...

    First Annual Mojave Mile Event

    I believe, and you can take that with a grain of salt, that the speed trap will be using a very accurate timing light system similar to what the NHRA uses. My friend Ed Raether will probably be bringing his very nice system and it includes a large LED readout to show your trap speed. If you have...

    Your Setup & Horsepower

    My GT is Stock performance wise. I have a few cosmetic "upgrades" that I really like. When I run it at the GT School I usually have Hoosier R6 tires, and that's about it. Richard Hille The GT School

    First Annual Mojave Mile Event

    ObeyMyFast, The rules have not yet been posted, but any time you are going this fast it is a really good idea to have a racing harness rather than the very marginal factory safety belts. I've personally crashed at 140 mph in a 1998 Mustang SVT Cobra set up for Unlimited Class Open Road Racing...

    Happy Feet, Just my personal choice, I ONLY buy Bell Helmets for automobile racing. I DO have an ARAI for motorcycle riding. I'll tell you about Simpson (back when Bill Simpson was in charge) but only face to face. Nothing in writing. Richard Hille The GT School

    First Annual Mojave Mile Event

    Obey My Fast, Simple solution, stop by Willow Springs International Raceway on your way to the Mojave Mile Shootout. It is just a few minutes off Highway 14 so it is virtually on your way. Top off with 100 octane, then hit them again on the way home. You should have plenty with a full tank to...
