The team of The Texas Mile that brought Top Speed 1-Mile Competitions to The Lone Star State will bring 1-Mile Racing to Houston in the Spring of 2014. Hennessey Performance is the Title Sponsor.
Houston, TX (PRWEB) August 15, 2013
The folks of The Texas Mile will be conducting The Houston Mile events through its sister company, The U.S. Mile. It will be run with the same “heart and soul” and participant and fan focused values that this team has established over the past 10-years in Texas.
“The Fastest Modern Day Cars and Motorcycles will converge on Ellington Airport in Houston. We are grateful for the opportunity *that the Houston Airport System (HAS) and the staff of Ellington Airport has extended to the motor sports community. Ellington Airport is already home to jet fighter pilots, NASA astronauts, and heroes from the US Military and Coast Guard. Now it will be home to the fastest modern day 1-Mile top speed vehicles on earth,” said Shannon Matus, CEO of The U.S. Mile.
Dave Golder of Hennessey Performance commented, “I am very impressed with the U.S. Mile’s team, their dedication to the sport and how thorough they are. I know this is going to be huge. I can't wait and I know we have chosen the right people for launching Top Speed 1-Mile Competitions in Houston.”
The planning is underway for the inaugural Houston Mile presented by Hennessy Performance. The inaugural event will include a tribute to the late Bill Warner aka “Mr. 300” as he had begun plans for the initial Houston Mile events. The U.S. Mile will also host The Houston Half-Mile during the annual Houston Aeros and Autos festivities at Ellington Airport. Details on contact information, participant registration and opportunities for being a spectator, vendor, and sponsor will be released on the web site http://www.houstonmile.com.
