Here is true high speed long distance racing. The BV100 Open Road Race right near the Nevada and Utah state line, Total race distance is 100 miles on a public road closed down to the general public so you have all sides of the road to use.
Along with the ORR there also is 1 day of high speed practice, a 3,280 foot drag race where ET does not matter top speed does, carshow and parade lap around the town with your race car.

Within the ORR is also competing TEAMS, if you want to be part of ours contact me.

The road used has straights as long as 10 miles so it would be easy to hit your tech speeds of 165 MPH.
The maximum cars allowed to make the ORR is 200 so get registered ASAP, get your motel room reserved, plan your race method to win and then join us for 3 days of pure high speed fun.

Let's Go a Racing . . .

Sounds like fun !! My wife gives me hell if I get to 80 mph. Also @ that high speed it would pull the wax off my car. I need to get a second car so I can come out and PLAY. :cheers:

Have her be your navigator thus she would be so busy she would not have time to look at the speedo :-)
After the buffer zone of 120, the car levels out and she will think your on cruise control :-)

Really though within about 10 miles at speeds over 140 MPH you get used to the speed aqnd by the end of the race you really do feel like your cruising and the hard part then is after the race to drive back 50 to 100 miles to the motel at legal speeds of like 65 MPH and man it is painful to be going that slow.

This is a good race to make as a vacation, drive out to Nevada, spend 3 days with all of us with Corvettes, maybe even win a trophy and go home with a ton of fish stories to tell :)
If not into racing come out and be someones navigator, be a course worker for that is the only way to see live a bunch of Corvettes hauliung at speeds as low as 120 to 230 MPH.
Or simply come watch all the other parts of this such as seeing cars get tech'd, high speed practive, carshow and parade.
I think every Corvette deserves to haul *** like this once a year for it cleans all the carbon out and trip home the engine is very happy
