The bike rider was a gear too high. At 40 MPH he should have been in 1st and ready to go. When I heard him down shift after the go, I knew it was over for him. He needs to get into the 8-10,000 RPM range as quick as possible to make any power.

SS actually makes 530whp in this race

Heres another video of that same 600 doing some racing along with my buddies 750. Both are legit riders. The white GT500 in this video that races the 600 made 612whp

It was a full bolt on/pullied/ported eaton car. It still pulled some quick cars. Dont judge it by the race against the 600. He beat the 128mph 403ss pretty good.

OPs car would lose to that 600 fairly badly.... not as a dig to the OP... but it took a car that has went as fast as 10.2 at 138 to be able to really pull that 600. And even then... they were side by side till around 115-120 or so.

I dont recall seeing that race against the SS. How the hell did he beat that car "fairly badly" when it didnt even beat your car that bad. Only at the very upper MPH did it start to pull you.

Also that heavier 650hp?-ctsv pulled that 750 up top yet the Shelby was getting raped by the 600. Idk. I could be wrong but it came off as a little weak for the hp...

No the 600 beat the 403 SS. Not the Shelby. And the car im talking about that went 10.2 at 138....was the 650whp CTSV. And the CTSV could only catch the 750 if they started from a high roll. The first race when they went from 40... as you can see he couldnt catch the 750....and that car has trapped 138

TF?? How does a 650rwhp ctsv trap 138?? lol They have low reading dynos but the one he used needs to be recalibrated! Unless hes got a ton of weight out of the car.

How does a 435whp Boss 302 stay next to a 530whp 403 SS?


Efficiency my friend . And the CTSV is an auto. And i said the ctsv has gone "as fast" as 138. Its also gone 132 with the same power and weight.

Best trap speed for the V was 135.9 mph. Race weight was between 4480 and 4520 lbs if I remember correctly.

OP, good kill!

It's so funny to watch people fail so bad on a bike. I really don't know how they can do so badly...

So basically, unless a bike is ridden by an anorexic midget who's also a professional rider, your car lost! LOLZ!

Rickey Gadson himself could have been riding that 600 I ran, and he would have still lost.

Not really, the bike in the OP is very slow makes like 80whp stock, thats 30whp behind what normal stock 600s make now. basically a low 120 mph bike at best.

Actually it makes 100hp stock, and he had jetted carbs, exhaust... so figure maybe 103-105? And based on what I saw checking online, it is a low 11sec bike at around 130mph or so.

Edit: nevermind.. looked at another site and it shows 87.5hp stock. The R was rated at 100
