Ah did the GSXR not know you guys where racing? Because that's the only way you beat a bike. Unless you are putting down 550+ to the tires.

Isn't the rule "You need The HP of The CC"?

600cc you'd need ~600hp right?

I did catch a guy on a gixxer 1000 earlier this week in a crown vic. Mainly because he didn't know how to drive it and he drove into my car.

The only street car I knew to beat bikes was a 79 Camaro with a fully built 400 and dual stage nitrous.

I bet the bike started off in 3rd or 4th gear.

Continuation of the OP's story...

"But then, all of a sudden I heard a police siren that had a weird "beep...beep...beep" to it. It was a perfect rhythm, but sounded very weird to me, so I wasn't gonna pull over cause I thought it was a fake cop. Then...I awoke from my dream and realized that was my alarm! Damn! BUT, then on my way to Taco Bell for my first shift as "Team Leader" I destroyed the 12 volt monster pictured below! The guy was so shocked he dropped his sno cone! LS1's rule! After the race, though, we did talk for a little while. The guy was pretty cool, but he said he's planning to upgrade to 24 volt, maybe even 36. But, by that time I'll have my two stage direct port 400hp nitrous system on, so I don't think it'll matter...what do you guys think? Also...do you think my stock fuel system will handle it? I know I probably should upgrade, but I just really don't want to go through the hassle right now."





Ok, seriously though...how can you beat any sport bike (or cruiser, really) with a 2.2 60ft and a 13.6x @ 103 quarter?? Did you add a couple of JATO units that you left out of your sig or something?

Formulazr thats funny!!! Seriously I raced a HD sportster or something like it when I was bolt ons only, think I may have had a 3200 converter also, dont remember, We duked it out for six straight red lights going 0-70 mph each time. Neither one of us could pull the other one at all. It was dead even. A 600 cc would have raped my ***, lol.
