Smile Played with ZX-10 and C6

Tonight I got to play with a Zx10 and a C6.... The C6 was absolutely no match I pulled him by buslengths....All races were from around 70-75mph...

But the ZX-10 ...I talked to the owner afterwards while refueling, brand new bike just some engine management mods and exhaust put 183 to the wheel and went 9.40s at HRP...Race results: He pulled a few bike lengths on me before we shut down(maybe at 120mph?), but light traffic was hindering a flatout race. We played around some but I know he only really hit it hard once, after I suprised him the first time. I was actually pleased with my Z's showing, because I thought I might be racing a Busa and did not expect to win. When I mentioned I thought his bike was a Busa his reply "I eat Busa for lunch!" Anyway thats one bike that I just would not own. My intuition tells me it would send me to an early grave.

sweet. IMO, the new zx10s are the best liter bikes to buy if you want ridiculous power and handling (and ya he'll take 95% of the busas out there cus there so heavy). what work do you have done?

Its just a cam only Z06 with all boltons, studded heads, 335's out back.... It has trapped 126 on motor. On street tires with a horrible 60' that turned into an 11.70... Never made a pass with the TNT kit I had and sold but Im bolting on an NXL direct port in the near future Also my ram powergrip hd with 910 disk is starting to slip. I have some pics of the car when I bought it about 1.5 years ago if someone could explain how to host them...I have sbc dsl?

he may eat "stock" busas but a busa with equal mods would pose a BIG problem. a new stock zx 10 or gixxer 1000 both have low 160 whp and are 100 lbs lighter but still can't beat it in the 1/4,but they all 3 are neck and neck.
