took out a gxr 750 tonight ;)
I first did an NA run vs one of my buddies in his SS but during the run we saw two bikes coming up quick, I radio'd my buddy and told him that if these bikes were gonna play that I was gonna spray. We make a U turn on the local "dragstrip". During the U turn I purged the hell out of it to make sure i had no room for any nitrous flaws. We both hit it and by the end of the race I had many carlengths on him. The race was from a 30 mile roll and we took it all the way to 174 mph by the end I had a couple buslengths on him but he did say that he had a problem shifting into one of his gears but none the less I was pulling pretty damn good all the way through. That damn nitrous is like warp f*cking drive. I almost can't stand going NA anymore lol...

I think the race vs the bike should have been closer than that, dont doubt that you beat him however. If he was having problems shifting it would explain it though. The 1100 ninja isnt the fastest bike out there right now, that goes to the ZX12R... its a 1200 ninja and is dubbed the "busa killer"

the 12r is a bad little bitch. It can straight line faster than a busa, and can still take the twisties like a bat outta hell. Something about a 600cc frame with a 1200cc motor in it... that thing dominates.

Thanks man, I was pretty happy with the results myself, I would guess that if he had perfect shifts I still would have still won but not by the amount that I did. Both guys on the bikes were real cool and we talked for about an hr afterwards, the guy with the gxr said he was about to trade it in on and r6 and after that he wanted a rematch after he got it but something tells me I won't like the outcome of that race , he said that bike would be close to the ninja in which case he would spank my ***.
Seems like every other car down here is a freakin monster..... whats up with that ???

Well I think you should run him anyway, losing to a stout bike has no shame! Yeah I am days away from getting my 396 done and will be in the middle of the pack, lol!! I would still like to see you and Dan run, there are a few stout 408's popping up around here, sigh!!!

Yeah I wouldnt mind running him either, Ill probably see him out one day and we will be able to get it done,,, that 396 is gonna be badass as well me and you might have to go at it as well. Seriously I think there are more strokers than stock camaros/firebirs around here lol.

LOL I not sure I'll have enough for you!! Yeah it seems to be the trend , stroke and spray it! Dan will be selling that motor and going to a different combo , can't divulge any info just yet but I am sure he will be on here when it's done. The current motor is going to a good home and will rip the Tampa streets also! I am currently trying to figure out how to get an exhaust some what like yours.

hmmm I wonder if anybody has spoke to Brandon recently? Im sure for the right price he would do it, he seemed like a really nice guy although I only talked to him a few times. The exhaust is nice, I get compliments on it all the time from people who just listen to it all the way to people looking at it up on a lift,, he did do a really good job , I guess I kinda got lucky that he did mine from the sounds of it.

maybe he did say r1 but I could have swore he said r6? I remember him saying it would it would be withen a few hp of the ninja that I raced but they said that the ninja would still be able to kick its *** due to weight or someshit, I wish I was listening more I was just stoked about the race .
