A few times a year, some of the fastest and most powerful cars meet in Texas for an adrenaline-filled weekend of top-speed runs called the Texas Mile. The high-performance machines have one mile of arrow-straight runway to get the highest top speed at the one-mile marker.
It was the right mix of conditions for Mark Hennessey and Sean K, who drove their twin-turbocharged Ford GT to a top speed of 235.1 mph down the runway into a decent headwind of 20 mph.
Lucky for us, the Hennessy-built Ford GT was equipped with a VBox, which provides info, audio and video of the session-winning run.
AutoWeek is in touch with Hennessey, and we’ll have the full rundown of parts and mods on the Ford GT later on Thursday. For now, enjoy the two videos. One is the top run of 235.1 mph, and the other has all of the VBox information on a run of 232 mph.
