Bike to car not fair??? I'l make the most money off of bike to car races. bike Vs my car.

360's are definatly a sex machine. I raced one in my Rx7 when it was rotary powered. Pulled on him a little bit, guy sucked at driving, shifted sooo slow. Its a delecacy (sp?) to get a race with those cars. VERY far and few in between and always fun to have a go at em. Wether its a bike or car!

So 10's at 130+ just to stick with the 600's??? Sounds like a sweet project

stock 1000's are fine too. Most these tools cant friggin ride. Of course i dont pick on the real riders that might actually know how launch a bike. pro rider on a modded r6 is fine. mid 10s at best. stock 05 r6 w/ a pro rider i guess netted 10.90's. Plenty of 600's to pick on tho. I ride moto and BMX. i can spot a real rider from a cocky bitch with money on a new bike out of any crowd like no other.

90% of rocket owners have that ora of "no car can beat my bike" about them. I see modded r6's run 11's all day at the track, some busa's running mid 10s. Then the hardcores running in the 8's. lol. Those guys are easy to stay away from. bright blue bottle hanging off the swingarm kinda gives it away. haha. I recently had some guy on a bone stock except for a slip on muffler 93 yami 600 claim he'd smoke whatever car i had for $1000. Oh man, i was flipping out. This bloke was sooo cocky, and im just thinking to myself. "act cool this guy is moron, be cool, and maybe i can set this money race up" suposedly going to meet up with him when warmer weather finally hits. I cant wait for that confrontation.

Then this one kid i know, recently bought a 05 Fzr 600 or whatever its called. the ***** version of the real R6, lol. Claims he'll smoke my car and is soo confident about it, it just makes me crazy. He said it tops out at 155, LMAO. Thinkin in my head " **** i almost trap that danm speed in the 1/4. I have this itch about proving points/winning money races. I think its the money and the shitface look of their faces after i beat em. I can on forever, summer isnt comming soon enough. Now im all pumped,,, im going in the garage right now and working on the car.

I have an 93 RX7n/A

from a roll the bike has an advantage. Trying to launch a bike on the street isnt easy, or the track for that matter. Either you bog, spin, or wheelie... Assuming your the average Joe that is. Otherwise youll know how to work the clutch and holeshot the bitch. A car on slicks with VHT on the ground with good traction will outlaunch the bike severely (spelt that wrong) Provided of course your car cuts 1.3-1.5 60's and runs in the low 10's or less. 13 sec cars need not apply, lol. Also, you can always play stupid... "well im going to need some spots here,,, being you have a bike and i have a car and all."
