those things are amazingly quick. i had the pleasure of racing one in the form of one of those 89 turbo t/a's(same powerplant, different chassis). had no idea what it was, so i was rather shocked when i heard the thing spooling as the guy was brakeboosting it going about 60. thing sounded like a jet engine!

At the end the bike certainly isn't full throttle. Maybe they ran a 0-100?

Sounded like the bike lifted... Maybe he just was getting pulled and gave up?

Google it. They do it all the time. And a pro can put them in 9's.
A busa can trap 160 + also in the 9's.

The fact is that most 600's can run 10's with the right rider.
Like I said I have owned bike for over ten year and ran the texas mile on my first busa with nos.
Look it up.
