Yup...all of us chemical engineers are good at math.

0 power + 0 Torque + Rice = WRX

See, it's easy.

Now shut the **** up junior. Have nice day!

Actually, I reaced this guy again from a 30 roll with him ready...he got me by about 2 bike lengths to 150...not exactly stupid. And this was a 1000, not a 600. Takes a lot to make my car look stupid...car or bike.

Yes, I am. I have fun on this site and with my cars. Maybe I will grow up and buy a WRX with dual cupholders and go onto other people's forums and defend my poor choice for having bad taste and small *********. Yeah, I think I will not buy the C6 and get a WRX instead.

Damn, where did my ***** run off too....here boys....C'mon back...I was only kidding...

Unit...do what you have to do, big fella. I don't come here to start ****. I come here because I'm interested in your cars. If I'm not welcome because I don't currently drive an LS1-equipped car, fine. I know the way out...

You've made a 10 second car look stupid with just a 750? You must be a hell of a rider then because it's not as easy as the magazines would like to tell you to make a bike run 10s even with a 1200. Bikes aren't what everyone would like to imagine. Just because you read about a stock bike going 9's doesn't mean you're going to be able to even run an 11 on your identicle bike at the track. Just because the guy lost to a 10 second car doesn't mean he's that bad of a rider.

It has nothing to do with not owning a LS1 car. I don't own one either. Non-LS1 owning, **** talkers (generally owning WRX's, S.RT4's, etc) are trolling. Nothing more. Please stick around if that's not what you're here for.

I also killed a 04 GSXR-750 with some mods from a dig...now he was a terrible rider...but killed him none the less....Only bike I have had pull away from me on a 150 shot was a 99 900 with a LOT of work including a 60 shot of nitrous...he pulled me pretty good. Even on the 200 shot he would beat me pretty easy.

You should bring your 750 out here and race me, it might be interesting. My car is capable of much more than high 10's...I run full weight, pump gas, mild 3.23 gears, and radials. If I made my car just for the track I imagine it would go 10.2's or so.

I said the 1000 beat me...but not by much.....and he wasn't the best rider either, but not terrible. I know at the track I can't beat a new 1000 with good rider, but on the street from a 30 roll, driver will make a big difference. Again, I have not beat a NEW 1000 on the street yet, but will keep trying. From a 30 roll, I can go to 150 with shifting ONCE...makes it nice to race bikes in this range.

No at the track in perfect conditions you can't beat a rider that gets lucky and runs perfect. Few riders can pull a 9 on a stock bike 1000cc or not. I've seen plenty of people make track passes on bikes. When someone comes up to you with a 9 second timeslip on a stock 1000cc bike then you need to sweat them. Until then just laugh them off because most "bikers" are just bench-racers anyway. Sorry if I offend anyone that actually has made a 9 second pass. Just sick and tired of all the bullshit from the locals here that are too ***** to prove it but they're always real fast to say it.

1) I don't live anywhere near you
2) I also run full weight (full leathers), pump gas, mild gears, and radials.

I don't beat off to magazines; I ride. Do you even ride?

Also, you should look at SDB's MPH. A properly ridden 750 and 1000 should win even from a roll-on. SDB should pull a 600cc bike after ~90-110MPH if the 600cc bike is ridden properly.

Yea I do ride and I've seen plenty of bikes make passes at the track and made some myself. I've yet to see one match magazine claims maybe all the riders on the road just suck. All I'm saying is you're fast to judge the rider when they lose to a 10 second car did you ever stop to think maybe they were on a 10 second bike or maybe getting the most out of the bike is alot harder process than everyone would like to think it is? In my opinion just because someone doesn't manage to live up to magazine standards with their bike doesn't make them a shitty rider.

It is not hard to ride a bike properly. If one rides a GSX-R1000 PROPERLY, he/she will have NO problem pulling a 10 sec, 128mph car.
