About

The Texas Mile, held biannually at the Chase Field Industrial and Airport Complex in Beeville, Texas, stands as a thrilling showcase of high-speed racing. During this event, participants from various regions take on the straight-line, one-mile racing challenge, each striving to achieve the highest speed within this defined distance. The diverse array of vehicles on display, ranging from modified cars to high-performance machines, adds an extra layer of excitement to the mile-long competition. Enthusiasts gather to witness the impressive displays of speed and performance, making the Texas Mile a must-attend event for those passionate about the world of high-speed racing.

In 2003, responding to the need for stricter measures against highway racing, Texas legislation enacted stringent laws seizing the opportunity to provide a legal outlet for speed enthusiasts,  Shannon Aulds, owner of The Texas Mile, envisioned a safe, well-organized, and enjoyable environment where individuals could push their cars and motorcycles to high speeds. In October 2003, she introduced Top Speed Racing on airport runways, marking a groundbreaking initiative in the motorsports industry.

 

Since its inception, The Texas Mile has attracted participants from around the globe who converge on an airport runway to race their vehicles, striving to achieve top speeds in a mile and a half-mile before safely shutting down. The inaugural event in2003 featured 35 participants, and over the years, it has evolved into the world's premier Top Speed Racing Event, boasting over 200 participants. Drawing the attention of several thousand spectators attending in person and an online audience through live streaming, The Texas Mile has firmly established itself as a marquee event in the world of high-speed racing.
