Maxton Mile
They used to run at an old airport in Maxton, NC. They have some strict safety equipment rules. It is a standing start one mile run. Street cars without roll bars, hood pins, fire and 6-point belts, etc are limited to 125mph IRRC.
A couple of stock Impalas ran Maxton back in the day. One hit about 130 before he got time out for exceeding the speed limit and John Madley ran
his GiantSS there and did well over 150mph before going to Bonneville and breaking the 200 MPH mark.
