Default TA vs. 05 gsxR

i ran and gsxr 6 from a dig for 100 bucks a race 1/8 and 1/4. both races i pulled a car to a car in half at the beginning and held him off. i figure he would take me in the quarter specially being on the street, but im not complaining. lol. what r yalls thoughts on the driver and the race?

what should a bone stock 05gsxR 600 run at the track (1/8 and 1/4) with a slightly better than average driver. i figured 10.7 to 11.5. what do yall think? would that change on the street?

My 99 600 run 11.3 at TWS in roadracing form (fairly stiff suspension). New ones should be slightly faster.

I've ran 3 600 cc bikes on the street in my car and took them all. 2 from a dig ( they couldn't drive) and 1 from about 50. The two from a dig told me to go first, they probably won't make that mistake again !! lol

i believe they were all R6s though, not GSXRs

ok first off lol the 2005 gsxr is a 9 second bike with a good rider..High 9's i mean. also the guy u raced must have rode like crap lol. that bike puts down 162 hp to the wheel. it moves, and is the fastest liter bike out there... makes the same or more power then a busa and weights a hell of alot less.

He said GSXR 6 - He was implying 600 most likely.

I doubt he would hang with a liter bike even with bad rider.

Yeah he must have meant 600, I raced a gsxr1000 from a 60 roll and killed me to say the least.
