There is one in my neighborhood and I want to run him.

I have heard that these bikes are insanely fast (low 10 second 1/4).

Should I be able to hang? I really do not care if I loose, I just want to know how much smack I should talk before the race.

Thank you.

 

you should take him hwy pulls, 1/4 mile? they make about 160 hp stock

 

They are quick but heavy. Sizewise are similar to a busa but taller. 160hp but supposely have a nice torque curve.

 

How are you going to run him?

If you go from a roll and can take it high enough you will win.

 

You should be able to beat him. I beat an older (2003) 1LTR BMW bike and I beat him in my 120-124mph Cobra back when I was 18. So you should not have a problem!!

 

So maximum smack talk it is

They weigh 499 and make 167hp.

 

The smack has grown weak in you old man... Do you need me to come over and show you how it's done LOL!!! JK!

I'm going to try to make it out tomorrow morning, but probably won't be there honestly. I can't convince my brother to help put my new ProfecB in and my straight pipes on. Plus I'm going to the Woodlands tonight for dinner and drinks.. so god knows when I'm going to actually make it home

 

Chris,

Are you, or your brother for that matter ever going to run me?

Tommorow is the perfect day!

 

It is up to Matt on tomorrow, but I don't think he want's to drive out on slicks cause he's going to need the n2o to beat the GT30 beast now. My car doesn't have a working boost controller right now. So god knows what kind of boost it will make. Matt doesn't want to put the new one in today and I'm going to the Woodlands tonight to see some friends.

He did finally get tuned on the n2o and made 839rwhp Didn't make crap for power on motor because he needs new heads (only 507rwhp on the 7th dyno pull, no real cooldown). I don't think it'll be fair to compare the cars like that though because Matt's hoping for 4.x's in the 60-130 and 9s @ 150-155mph in the 1/4.

 

Get some video if you can so we can all live vicariously

 

Sean, I'll bring my camera tomorrow to film what a "slightly modified" GT2 can do to a "nearly Stock TT".

 

Wxcellent, bring the camera.

 

Doc, Take him from a roll if you can. I took a guy on a 2003 Hyabussa from a roll in second, and he had the "jump" on me at that... We rolled thru 3rd gear and by the time he lifted I'd put about 3 car lengths on him. He was super-cool about it and said I was the first car that had ever beat him...

As with all 1 liter+ bikes they are only as good as their riders.Trust me when i tell you only the fastest cars on here have a shot at one with a really good rider, and that is a stock bike.......Most of them are not stock.Good Luck!

 

This cracks me up.
BMWs are in the same league as Harleys : they are mid-life crisis objects, I wouldn't call them motorcycles.
