Top Gun Run will be hosting "The Standing Mile Event" at Dade Collier Airstrip November 14th, 2009. We are looking forward to an exciting event. Things are starting to heat up. REGISTER Early, don't get shut out. If you have any questions do not hesitate to call.

Top Gun Run is an organization that developed out of a growing need for Standing Mile Events. “Local car/motorcycle enthusiasts with a need for speed”. Top Gun Run will host a variety of events throughout the year. If you crave the opportunity to really let your car go, with no fear of tickets, in a safe controlled environment, then “The Top Gun Run Standing Mile” is for you!

The location is the Dade Collier Airport located thirty six miles west of central Miami. The airstrip is 10,499 x 150 ft of asphalt. Go to our events page for dates, and registration. Register early to assure a position.

The Top Gun Run Standing Mile will be held at the Dade Collier Airport.
54575 E. Tamiami Trail Ochoppee, Fl 34141

IMPORTANT UPDATES:

Due to a strong interest in the November 14th event, and less interest in the November 7th date Top Gun Run has decided to combine the two events. The fastest cars from both events combine to determine “The Top Gun”. The fastest car in Florida Mile History.

Top Gun Run is aware of the issues that concern both participants, and spectators alike. Participants, we will be using a Tag Heuer Professional Timing System (accurate to 1:10,000th of a second) which will also provide you with a time slip of your run. You will be able to park your trailers along the taxiway for easy access. Spectators, we will provide a PA system to announce speeds, a car show, food and drink vendors within reach, a shuttle van to transport spectators from the parking area to spectator area’s. We are looking into the possibility of additional forms of entertainment, announcements will be forthcoming. Keep sending us suggestions, we are listening.

Top Gun Run is aware that some of you experienced technical difficulty with the registration process. The system has been modified to work with older web browsers. If anyone experiences any difficulties with the registration process please notify us so that we can correct any issues

9am to dusk .. allday racing , some heads up going on etc etc etc

the local forum i am on went to the first one and it was def lacking in certain areas..so we will def be rolling out to this one....

[Kevlar]

This one promises to be much better... Plus it should be cooler out there which means faster cars.

[Kevlar]

I just talked to the guys at Active Autowerke... they said they will try to make it out to the event.

How many cars are entered?

Is there an entrants list?

[Kevlar]

No entrants list, but I understand they have capped the list at 85 cars so that people get plenty of passes down the mile.

I have been told that the entrants list looks very similar to the other groups, lots of high HP cars hoping to break the 200mph barrier. The fastest runners from the last event are coming back hoping to get more accurate measurements as this event will have timing/speed markers at intervals the entire track, not just the 1 mile mark.

I think they are going to have timing/scoring markers at the 1/8, 1/4, 1/2 and 1/1 mile.

[bstar]

Any news?

[Kevlar]

There was a crazy headwind... best speed out there was accomplished by a Twin Turbo Gallardo... best he did was 197. The Turbo Ford GT came up short at 189. A Ferrari F40 showed up, all he got was 164. An M3 Convertible was there, he got 169 and a M3 Coupe was there he got 165. Bunch of corvettes were between 165-180. Dodge Vipers were in the low 180s. Nissan GTR consistent 173-174 everytime... he did hit 179 late in the day but only once. Renntech Mercedes C63 was there... he hit 189, but his car was prepped for it. Anything unnecessary was removed... even the wingmirrors. CL65 hit mid 180s and a regular C63 was somewhere around the 170 mark.

This event was great... they had a DJ there to keep people busy, food/drinks were on hand, chairs and tents were provided and you didn't have to walk 2 miles to see everything.
