So basically this is a full out race bike??? I want to run you on motor, but I bet you end up spraying against me because losing to a stock motored Porsche would be completely embarrassing for a 1000cc with as much done as you have done...

Just here to stir the pot, just like you are doing...

Regardless I know even on motor you'd kill me from a stop, even with me being AWD (now) and hopefully RWD on 27" Drag Radials (TX2K10). But from a 60+ roll on it's a totally different ball game We will pick a 3 lane road for sure though, I want to make sure you are safe, because AWD right now the car gets pretty violent at 60mph.

compare it to a car, in terms of mods. I really don't have much for power upgrades at all.

Take a camaro.
Pull the air filter
put on a cat back system
put on a small shot
change the hood
change the gears
short throw shifter
a tune
and some suspension work

can't be that fast, come on maaaannnn.

sounds good. From how things went last year, I fully expect only roll races.

I just hope mine hooks as well. I'm on a stock tire and plan to be around 70'' wheelbase.

I'm the only person making that kind of power though. The next highest car makes roughly 720rwhp SAE @1.67bar. I make 868 on 1.79 bar. How long it will last I dunno honestly. I know it won't live forever, but I hope I can keep it up enough till I can build the motor. I've ran more boost then what we dynoed at many times on the street. About 2 more PSI almost. So only the man up stairs knows how long it'll last. LOL!
