I learned something new though. I wish it was more acceptable for cars to run us. I'm finding it difficult to run the faster cars because I'm on a bike. Are you guys dealing with the same issues in your areas?

Do the cars just not want to race you?

Tracked350Z

Yup. Even the 600+ ones are a struggle. Hoping next week when I head east that changes.

Depends. Some guys just love to race and use any opportunity to get a run in;win or lose. Others feel there is no point as they don't see it being in their favor and don't wanna take an L.
And then you have the exceptional few who think no bike could even come close...those are the ones I always try and run

I get less races on my bike then when I DD'd my Camaro.

It's funny, the only thing that tries to race me on my bike are usually teenagers in bolt-on loud exhaust imports.

Ok so I spoke with my friend with the GTR,they didn't shoot any vids. Were gonna meet up again Saturday night and get some more runs in&we will both have Go-Pros with us.

My buddy with the 14R is scrambling to buy a different sprocket,front end strap and dogbones to lower his bike because he wants a rematch lmao

Yea a lowering link and -2 rear sprocket helped my bike a TON. I dropped 1.5" with the links and pulled the front forks just about 1" through the triple. Strap the front as hard as I can at the track. First gear on a stock bike is totally useless at stock wheelbase so I had to baby it and short shift. I STILL have to baby it out of the hole now, but I can float the front and actually use most of first gear now lol.

I got the billet dogbones in a kit with adjustable kickstand for $130 on ebay. Strap was like $20. Small price to pay for being able to launch the bike much harder .

Those are the ones I got if he wants to save a few bucks. My bike is a daily rider and I have had no issues with either of them, they are actual billet and not cast or stamped garbage like the real cheap ones.

Any of you happen to run against a gen 3 zx10? How did it go? I'm trying to run some 14's, but the one I was set to run crashed and there's a bunch others but they're random s I see riding down this random street.

What mods?

The Gen3 10 is a nice bike, but some big improvements were made on the gen4s.

Tracked350Z

His is basics plus stretch, mine is swb, slip on, filter, removed secondaries, and reflash but the reflash was done before the secondaries were removed so it needs a new tune. Soon to have full system and tuned on 87.

So tvs gt500's are definitely in liter bike territory. Had one sitting 1-2 car lengths behind a well ridden and well modded 2012 gsxr 1000 today. Very very fast. I'm guessing a high 140's-low 150's trap car.
