Default Ran a Busa

Well I was on my way to the house when I see a Hybusa (however you spell it) at the light coming up. He was in the left lane and I was in the far right lane with one car between us. My car is loud as hell and lopes pretty good. I took off normal and looked over and it looked like he was getting on it. I nail it, hit 2nd, then 3rd and he is even with the back bumper. I don't know if he was not on it or just can't ride but we were going 70 mph in a 45mph zone. We had to slow down cause the next light was red. Same thing at this light but I left alittle harder. Let off at about 60mph because I'm not trying to go to jail. He was starting to pull me after about 55mph both times. I know he would smoke me after 70 mph but it was still fun. This was the first time I got on it hard since I installed the rest of the BMR suspension and the car hooks damn good now.

That is alot of bike to try and keep the front wheel on the ground from a dig.....They put down some 155 - 160 to the groud Stock(If I recall that right). They run the Quarter(WITH IDEAL conditions and agood rider) just under 10 sec.....

That guy might have been messing.....or to sceered to get into it and run for real! But then again you do have quite a list of mods yourself...so you could be just that fast!!

Good kill man.....Have a good one

Yeah....He must have been either a complete noob or not trying....

It probably wouldn't even take 2/3 throttle to whip a h/c fbody...without leaving 1st gear.... ...
