I know many of you have seen my previous Texas Mile video from last weekend. But, this new version includes a speedometer overlay (thanks to Mike Bailey). Also, to improve the overall sound, I used the audio from my 2nd GoPro that was mounted on the back bumper during this run. The exhaust is Fabspeed cat delete with straight pipes. Enjoy!

That is soooo sick. I must have watched it a dozen times.

Congrats on a safe and successful run.

Are those the pipes I sold you?
