Believable kill on an old 600. Now the new ones and that 636 will (read: SHOULD) be a much different story with a proper rider.
GT500 hooked hard and pulled nicely in the video. What gear was the bike starting in? Not 100% sure on older 600's, but on mine, I would still be in 1st gear on a 40 roll and lean forward as much as possible to keep the front end down.

OP's car is close to 100mph in the 1/8th. Will be hard for a 600 to keep up with it.

2007 CBR600RR Stock except sprockets:
took my 07 600rr to the strip last week. my best was a 10.41 @ 133.25. it's completely stock except for up 1 rear sprocket. had a 1.74 60 ft, 6.74 @109.80 in the 1/8. outran a couple of stretched 1000's too. that was fun. pissed them off though. i really think it will go into the 30's if go back. i might try stock gearing, because it crossed the finish line just barely going into the rev limiter. this is pretty much what you want, but it might go a smidge more mph, hopefully not loosing much off of the 60 ft times

They are...and one tooth up in the rear is hardly far from stock.
Either way, it's been debated here a million times and the truth is less than 10% of all riders can drive their bikes properly in a straight line, let alone the twisties. So finding a properly ridden 600 and getting a race on video will be tough.

I dont have any good ets yet because of traction and second gear grind issues, but the car has gone right at 99mph in the 1/8th. I figure its a mid 120s car in the 1/4. Havent made it to 1/4 yet.

Well hopefully we will see how I can do against a newer 600 soon. As far as 1/8th and 1/4 times, a roll will be slightly different. Bikes lose alot of advantage the higher mph you run. Especially a 600. If they get a jump on me and we stay in it, I think I can reel them in. We shall see. Ill def get video when it happens. Its all in fun anyway. Win or lose, it doesnt matter to me
