That was an awesome video. After that second race ended and SRZ hit the brakes, I stayed in it until the bike topped out reading about 110 (redlined in sixth gear). It took me an awfully long time to catch him even with him on the brakes, though.

It's funny, because to me that bike looks like any other street bike, but it's so slow it's rediculous. I'm thinking maybe it will be a good race for my brother's V6 automatic 2004 Mustang.

Haha, we usually try not to set up one sided races, but we needed a baseline for it so that we can try to get it a more evenly matched race.

Nice Kill!

Love the guys with bikes that think they are unbeatable. Probably wouldn't waste the gas on an oversized dirtbike, but eitherway, nice kill!

I'm pretty happy with this editing software, so I might buy the real version of it. It's usually around $140, but they are running a special and it currently only costs $60.

No, not really. We all know even a stock 600 would be a LOT worse the other way around. This was just for fun.

F that, the system I use is $600, and I got it for free. I wouldn't even pay $60.....but I am a huge cheap ***.

So that they can agree with me that a 250 is super slow
