60-130 Event - Lonestar Motorsports Park - July 18, 2009

[houstonT]

Many of you have heard about (or attended) our 60-130 events in the past. This is an opportunity for all of us GT-R owner's to get together and have some fun with our cars without abusing them yet still be able to go over 130 mph legally! The premise is simple:

Rent dragstrip
Put a GPS based driftbox on your windshield (like a radar detector)
Roll through water box
Floor your car at about 20 mph
Hang on and let off around 135 mph
Get a GPS verified time it takes for your car to go 60-130

Here is an excellent article written about the 60-130 measure:

I have exciting news! I just got confirmation from Dusty Womack, Owner and Founder of www.mvpmotorsports.com as well as Owner and Founder of www.mvpgtr.com that he will be in attendance at our event.

He has committed to bringing the WORLD'S QUICKEST/FASTEST GT-R to our event on 7/18/09. He plans to run the 60-130 event and then plans to beat his own 1/4 mile world record... How many of you can make it?
