The Texas Mile ZR-1 (191.51 mph)

[72Mako]

Just got this month's issue of HotRod magazine. In the issue, there is an article about a top speed race called the Texas Mile. Held on a runway in Texas, a number of cars vie for top speed honors. The big dog was an '95 ZR-1 belonging to a Paul Denhert. He clocked in at 191.51 mph. Does anybody know about this car and what modifications it is running? The magazine failed to give any information. Thanks Charles

The car is a LPE 368 TT ZR-1. 6 speed. The car is a bad ass ride.
