dude, its a cool story and everything, but....man, what is the point in ragging out your bike on a car? There is no way in hell, that a car can keep up with a bike so...i really dont understand. My friend drives a 10 second gsx everynow and then, (usually keeps it garaged) and it wasnt even close to keeping up with a bike in the long run of the race. so there's really no point besides wasting your gas, and ragging out your motor. bikes are fun to top out, get away from cops, do tricks, and pick up girls but for racing? There's really no point unless its against another bike. no offense or anything just my feelings.


That's not necessarily true. I've raced a few bikes from a roll (10-20mph or so) and put a hurting on them until around 100mph. Now...if my car revved to 11K rpm too, I might've been able to hang longer. Most guys cut out around 70mph anyway and then look amazed/pissed that I even hung with them. Don't ask me about models...I'm not a fan of bikes so I haven't a clue. A few times at the strip though I've gotten my ass handed to me by bikes. If I remember right I kept thinking I saw a turbo on this one bike...it ran into the 8's. Wicked fast.
