the video itself leaves a touch to be desired, but goddamn!

Thanks guys, the only thing I don't like about the video is the wifey forgot to roll the window up so the wind noise overtakes even my loud ass exhaust!

Was this on or off the juice?

NICE! any street car that will run with (or outrun) a bike deserves some serious respect!

SWEET, I used to love pulling bikes in a car. They all think it will never happen to them

On the bottle, I would like to run a stock 600 n/a. This guy has a brother with a bone stock R6 and he beats his brother by like 5 bike lengths when they race! So I believe a stock 600 would be a toss up against my car off the bottle!

well once I get my clutch hydrolic issue sorted out I'd like to get a run N/A. Im thinking I need an adjustable master bc my car just doesn't want to shift at high rpms. I know granny shifting won't cut it against you lol.

He was running 145 and lifted his body like that?

and was that a pink helmet?

spooled · 05-15-2008, 07:55 AM

I guess so we had to brake pretty hard because we were running up on traffic fast so it is natural (at least for me it always was) to sit up when you brake hard to keep your weight over the back of the bike. Not that is matters but FWIW the helmet is not pink it is red!

Nice. I have a friend with a stock R6 that's been wanting to play. Gives me a little idea of how it should turn out.

FWIW - I had a car that ran 95 / 96 mph in the 1/8 and i ran my buddies 06 636 kawasaki all the time. H e would pull me as soon as we hit it pretty hard [ AT LEAST 8 CARS ] and by the time we got to 130 or so it would level off but i couldnt come back.

the bike was stock and he weighed 130 - 140 pds.

Rider makes a huge diff on a bike [ both weight and skill]

edit - we always raced from 35 - 40 mph.. the faster roll you start with vs a 600 will help ALOT

600's are turds. Race a ~1000cc bike.

I'm kidding, no one get offended. But most 600's you see at the track run ~7.40's

Wish I could find the video off the couple bikes we raced one night on da skreets of Mexico.
