SPEEDRIVEN | SL600 / Oct 2010 TX Mile Pics

.

This picture was taken by one of the Marcins at last weekend's Texas Mile, a few hours before the Lamborghini Gallardo crash that (along with high winds) the Oct 2010 Mile will be remembered for.

The 3 Speedriven cars are shown in the photo above (including the 197.7 mph standing-mile record holder, center), and I'll be posting more 2010 Texas Mile photos to my flickr account throughout the day ... hope you enjoy!

Out of curiosity, do you offer a tune that will just remove the 155mph speed limiter?

We can certainly offer a speed-limit specific tune like this. PM'ed you.

Soulsearcher just added some video from last month's Mile ...

... considering the wind, 191 is OK. We'll be back in March for 200.
