02 WS6 vs 02 ZX6R
I need advice quick. Were racing tomorrow morning. We plan on going from a dig and a 40mph roll. Both races ending at 120mph.
My car:
02 ws6
SLP Air Lid
Descreened MAF
Kooks 1 7/8 LTs
GMMG Exhaust
Vigilante 3000
4.10s
TNT Nitrous Kit (150hp)
MT e.t. Streets
Last time i was at track i ran 11.2@119 spraying off the line with 150hp shot. Had 1.5 60'. Not sure how its gonna do in the street.
His bike:
02 Kawasaki Ninja zx6r
Aftermarket pipe only mod.
So guys whats my best bet as far as what mph to begin and end.
I plan on him walking me pretty steady. Ive never ran a bike before although ive rode my brothers CBR900 and understand how bad they are. Help!

Well by now I assume you know the sweet spots with your stalled setup so use em' . There's not much advice to be had considering you really can't screw up a shift and you have ET streets. At least you know to expect a loss but anyhting can happen.
Here's some advice: Get it on video!

I wanna go from 40mph. That was my idea from the get go. My car runs 4000rpms@40mph in 2nd gear. So with the spray,that bitch just explodes at 40mph. I just gotta make sure i got the bottle psi up! Ill try to convince my buddy to ride and video. If he doesnt ***** out! Hes scared of my car on the spray!

Good luck on you're race. Hopefully you don't break the tires loose after hitting the juice. Check the tires PSI before and fill up you're bottle, 1200PSI no less. You might have a chance, might.

You are in luck.. You should WIN. 02 6r are not much to worry about when your running 11.2's in he would have to be a PRO rider to beat you. going from a DIG. Good luck let us know the outcome . Its the newer 600's to watch out for

Really? Man you just got my hopes up. I was trying not to do that! But thanks for the info. Thats good to know. I just hope i can hook in the street. Theres some real good fresh blacktop down the street from me and it usually hooks very well. We'll see on the spray. Ill go test it before we run.

i just sold an 02' zx6r, great bike, and pretty quick and the kawasakis make pretty solid bikes ( mine was stock motor, and exhaust and i kept up with a exhaust only 04 gsxr 600 ) anyway, with an 11.2 car and spray you should have a pretty good chance, i might see him pulling a little when you get up to around 100 mph. just my guess. let us know man!!

Ok this race finally happened between me and my co-worker. But when he showed up, He was on a Yamaha R1! I was like oh ****, You can forget this. He traded he zx6r in on the R1. We were already there,so we raced anyway. From 40mph roll,i get the hit,he hits it starts pulling and pulls 2 cars past me to 150mph. Did that race again and same result. Raced from 20mph roll(4.10s) and he didnt pull past me until 60mph. I am very happy with the results. I have video,need software before i can post. Ill let you guys know when i get it posted.
