The year I ran the Sandhills Open Road Challenge the outright record for the road race was bumped about 30 mph by a guy in a twin turbo Viper.
The day before, this Viper did a 215.1 in the mile. Good for second place.
A little white Evo did a 215.9mph to win. All the Corvette drivers bowed to him.
True story. and yes, same Mike.
