You aren't telling me anything.

It is not *easy* to run 10s.. The vast majority of people you run into on the street couldn't run that.

Besides that, it is irrelevant from a roll. They trap 117-122 depending on rider and model. After 110mph or so they really start dropping back because of aerodynamics. They are nothing special from a 50-60 roll.

I've said it more then once here
In the realm of sport bikes, 600s are still small potatos. Just like Lemons said.

Again, nobody said 600cc bikes are slow... just slow in the realm of sport bikes. The new 600s are as quick as 1000s were ~10 years ago, but the 1000cc+ bikes nowadays are just STUPID fast.

It's just that the haters are calling him a liar or bringing other cars into the conversation instead of accepting that he stuck it up a 600's *** with no lube. Everyone gets beat sometime or another, I don't know why it seems impossible that he beat one?

Exactly. For those of you who want to call BS and aren't experienced riders and bike racers then check yourself before you insert your foot. We've already had half a dozen guys post up in this thread that have owned and/or do currently own sport bikes: most like myself have been riding for decades. And none of them called him out on his kill claim. That tell ya something?

We would have, but we didn't: Bikes got there limitations just like every other vehicle on the road. ESPECIALLY slow azz older 600's.

It would be a hell of a run motor to motor but you are right, you spray and I would lose hardcore. Wish I could put a little juice in my motor. POS 5.0 block...

Nice kill! I have stomped a GSXR 750, and one 600 F4i. Gixer was from around 40 and the F4 was from around 65. The CBR kicked it down and try to pass me and another car behind me.. Not even close, Bus lengths on both (more on the CBR) by the time I hit 120-130. Those are the only 2 besides a couple Harley's, etc, that I have really ran. I'm in the 655 rwhp range on my C5 ZO6.

Sounds like a lot of fun. How's traction? I'm thinking a good poked stroked LS1 pushing 500+rwhp and a shot of the sauce would be a fun little car. I'm guessing that even with a decent handling suspension it would still hook up on sticky tires in the 500-550 rwhp range, but couldn't imagine hooking up beyond 600.

Alright, Stopsign's ,mustang vs my van!

Seriously though, beating a 600 isn't that hard if you have a well built car, as some one already said aerodynamics on a bike are about as good as a brick. They just have power to weight in their favor on that battle.

Where do you run anyway stopsign? I see a mustang 5.0 around here, reminds me a lot of yours. They seem to be good folk, they don't harass me but I can get them to romp on it a bit on occasion.

It is 100% irrelevant what a properly rode 600 will do to a squid on a 1000.

A 1000 will stomp a 600s dick in the ground, period. Have you seen what happens above 100mph with a 600 and a 1000? I have first hand from both views. It is not pretty.

600s can be taken down all day by cars with 400-475Rwhp ranging from 3000-3500#s from rolls.

Where do I run as in where do I live? South Carolina. Or where do I run as in what track? Going to be Zmax. Used to be Atl Dragway. Funny, no 5.0 around here reminds me of my car. Most of them are stock or if they aren't they have bolt ons and think they can hang with most current cars. There is a very clean coupe LX with a 347 and nitrous I plan to run here soon for fun if he is up to it.

I think that would be a good run. 347 with nitrous in a coupe fox vs a N/A 331 in a SN95.
