Turbo SS vs Two Bikes
Keep in mind I am lacking some power because I maxed out my MAF, fuel injectors and MAP sensor.
So anyway I am driving on the highway and I come up on two bikes. The first one is a 750cc We cruise at 65 mph and I brake boost. We take off and I start steadily pulling him. I put a few cars on him. He then points to his friend wanting me to race him. Well his friends bike is a 1000cc. I knew I was toast but I had to see how bad. We go from 65 again and I brake boost. We hit it at the same time. I am with him maybe for 2 seconds. He then proceeds to pull about 8-10 cars on me I pulled up gave him the thumbs up and went on my way. Now I just need to get the rest of my stuff fixed and retuned. I know I probably still wont hang with that bike but I bet it would be alot closer

Sweet, last time I raced a 750 he would always jump on me from a 65 roll because of wheel spin issues love reeling them in and passing them though
Get your issues fixed and it should be a monster

What I need to do is get some new E/T Streets - I was on 40% standard street radials last year, which was a large part of the problem.
Soon enough I will attack the bikes
