I also had a 9" rear with 4.11's. The car had full bolt-ons and was cam only at the time.

My best advice is if you're worried about spraying your car then don't do it. A race isn't worth blowing something up if you can't afford it.
You pulled lengths on a 1000 with a cam only 125 shot?? Are you smoking meth or was the other guy a tard who couldnt ride. Thats a easy 10 sec bike. I dont see how its possible

Cam only car with 125 shot should run 10's pretty easy.

My best advice is if you're worried about spraying your car then don't do it. A race isn't worth blowing something up if you can't afford it.

That's really great run against GSXR1000 .. and spraying in 5th with 4.11 will take less time than 3.42 .. so the heat built will be less in your situation

It is not about blowing something and if I can afford it or not .. it is all about runing that thing safely ..

Let me give you a good piece of advice.

And it's very simple.

NEVER, NEVER, NEVER give anyone the race that they want. If you do you are giving up a chance at the win. Even if it's just for fun.
You are right .. I will take it

That GSXR1000 is either a turd or that jockey can't ride. My buddy's stock motor 05 GSXR1000 with a stock pipe went 9.20's at 148. Good luck trying to run that number with a cam only and 125 shot.

I would say that to be spraying in 5th = to you hauling ***(mph wise).. Why are you running them soo high?

I love how people are so quick to call bs. Why would I lie? I didn't say lengths. I just said I pulled on him and he couldn't pull away from me at all. A few years ago was like 5 or 6 and the gsxr was prob an 02 or 03. I ran the dude form a roll. My car on the spray pulled like a monster through 3rd and 4th and into 5th I shut it down. End of story.

Racing a bike from a roll is much different than racing it in the 1/4 from a dig. My car was no slouch and I can't say if the guy could ride or not.

Carry on.

I didn't say I ran the guy in the 1/4 and that's nice for your buddy.

I cant help but highly disagree with this statement. The main place your going to have a hard time keeping up with a bike is the 0-75 mph area. Im an avid motorcycle racer and trust me take the roll race. Ive done many street races on my bike and I begged for the dig. If the guy knows what hes doing you will never have enough room to catch him. Keep the bottle pressure up and try to get the jump and you should prevail in the higher gears.

No problem man, a couple guys and I have had real good success with the M&H -http://www.mandhtires.com/store.php?...on=show_detail tire setup on our cars. You will like the extra sidewall, should be able to hit it a little harder (with the nitrous)from a roll.

Don't think so buddy. Roll race a 13 sec car against a 10 sec car and you will be surprised how well the 13 sec car keeps up. It may not win the race but it won't be far behind.

I heard about 0-75 MPH is the hard time with a bike from many bike owners and it seems true ..

Most of bike friends advise me to go from a high roll with a bike and arming my nitrous from that gear specially with 750 bike ..

I always heard horror stories about the 5th gear problems too, but I myself have not had anything happen. I have a 4.10 gear tho...what I always do is just spray 2nd, 3rd, 4th and as soon as I shift unto 5th, shut down on the bottle. The people I am running (we usually meet and set the runs up) I let them know that I shut down into 5th on the bottle.

Not entirely true, you need to back up what you are trying to say.

My bone stock c6 only ran 12.80-13.0 @109-110 and 2 of my friends cars that both run mid to high 11's at 115-118 run door to door with my c6 from a 50mph roll.

Its mostly how the car is set-up. Drag or top-end.
