Default blown motor

This past weekend headed to a buddys house. I was on the freeway looking in my rearview mirror looking at about six street bikes comming up on me pretty quick. Already having a lifter making a little clatter I was prepared. A GSXR600 Gets next to me as his boys are behind. I see him rev his bike and so I dropped second going about 60, clutch it and take the jump. I pull third and took a nice lead. Pulling forth I throw white smoke and oil all over him and his boys. I finally make it to the feeder and they all cruse by giving me the number one sign if you know what i mean. Currently Im in the shop waiting on heads and cam.

Not the way you want to justify upgrades to your motor. <img border="0" alt="[bomb]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_bomb.gif" /> Good luck <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

I was racing a GT. Kicked his as, and then blew my radiator. Sucks ***. My car has been in my garage for 6 months, cause I don't got money to fix the radiator. Great kill though <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
