Thread: (Houston) Some of The Fastest Street Cars in the World

Will be in the Houston area later this week for the TX2K11 event. This event was started 11 years ago by my friend Peter Blach as a meet for Toyota Supras. Over the years it has evolved to include just about any kind of late-model performance car. Mostly street cars with a few dedicated race cars.

I would guess that there will be approx. 100 cars running around with 800+ rw hp and maybe 30 cars running over 1000 rw hp. Again, mostly street cars including: Supras, Lambos, Porsches, Corvettes, Vipers, GTR's and Ford GT's.

The event starts with a road race event this Thursday with a road racing event at Grand Sport Speedway. Then dyno day on Friday with drag racing on Saturday and Sunday - all held at our Lonestar Motorsports Park / Hennessey Performance campus west of Houston.

The dyno day on Friday is probably my favorite event and I will guess that there will be 1500-2000 people there along with some very powerful, interesting street cars.

I would like to invite all L4P members and fans in the area to come out and check out this event. It is truly a one of a kind motorsports event. And I will guess that it is the single largest gathering of diverse, powerful / fast street cars, owners and enthusiasts all in one place for a few days.

If you are able to attend just 1-2 events, then I would suggest you come see the dyno day and then the drag race finals on Sunday.

will be there. planning on lots of pics

John-

I posted a bunch of info in this thread: tx2k11??

Might want to bump that one with a link to this thread. Lots of them are not local to the Southweast.

I figured there were a few threads on here. Just wanted to make sure that the locals knew about it too! The more the merrier!

Heading down there tomorrow night, can't wait!

If that's the case, I know I've seen you post in the Houston CAC facebook group a few times...that would certainly bring out a ton of locals, especially if the group moderator sent out a message to everyone.

I find it funny that my stock GT-R will be one of the slowest cars there LOL

Ha. I've got a tuned E55 and my low 12's/high 11's will only be good enough to haul people from event to event and/or film nightly "events"

I'm with you. Some "mexico runs" and a street racing ticket would literally ruin my life. My livelihood relies on a good driving record. I'll be mostly watching and filming.
