my Z28 against an R1

never mind, not even going to mess with this one, other than I'll believe it when i see some engine bay pics to show the worlds quietest f1r, those things sound like jet engines no matter where it is. Hell my friends lt1 p600 is noticible a few blocks down (6lbs.) over his wide open exhaust( LT's, borla). To pull an r1 like that you would be running at least 8's, so where is the halo and 10 pt cage, plus r1's are better at top end (from a roll), the hardest part about racing a bike is luanching it. If i had a setup like that i would have engine bay pics all over the place.

smoke'um , the exhaust isn't really loud especially at idle, its just deep. and if you put the clutch in you could easily talk to someone with your window down. i agree about the dyno numbers part, the car ran 10.22@138 with the nitrous kicking in and out all the way through third ( on a 100 shot).
redz, the blower is lowd, don't get me wrong. it does sound like a jet engine, especially from the front of the car.
i'm in the middle of relocating to another continent right now ( that includes my PC), so as soon as i get i'll post engine bay pics. it's nothing fance, actually its really bad , the thing was built in an appartment complex garage, its not the prettiest.
as for a cage, i might put on in the near future, but not right now. the car never saw alot of track time, it was mostly for street racing, and when you have a cage people think you are " fast".
and you don't need to be running 8's to pull an R1 like that, as i said before , the rider was "green", he wasn't positioned properly on the bike, and he kept complaining about the front end wanting to pick up.

thats an 04 r1, and i sincerely doubt you could pull a stock 04 r1 much less my modified 04.
it didnt look like any r1 ive ever seen. it looked like the fz1 which is a detuned r1 engine. it traps like 128 or something. so if youre in the mid 130's, i can see you pulling an fz1.
but 04+ r1's will do 145 stock.

wow, you forgot. that kinda sucks, seeing as most everyone here will never race you. what do you have done? i used to have an R1 and i miss it to death. Graves full Ti, PCIII, 1 down 2 up 520, speedohealer, greggs, graves stacks, BMC filter, SS lines, fender elim, pilot powers, ohlins damper, graves rearsets and a puig screen

Nice kill, incredible car!
Like its been said tens of times, rider skill does matter a lot! When I race, my tuck = chin on the tank. I do believe your car can take out liter bikes, but modded liter bikes with skilled riders (funny watching them pull away from you like you are standing still coming out of T7 @ Road Atlanta heading down the back straight, and my 600RR was fully race prepped too)... very interesting races! Post some up when you come accross some! Any more vids of the car?

that car has massive HP and TQ, why cant he beat an r1, he did and thats that! besides its a car, not a bike. all bikes are fast or at least they should be, they weigh nothing compared to a car, apples and oranges
