I'm late to the party, but my Z06 get's skull drug by buslengths from a bolt on ZX-14. That wasn't even a race it was "look and go.....see I won!!"
I know your car is very strong, but 155mph strong to pull that hard? Crappy rider, didn't try, not a 1L bike, or something.

Rob, I love you to man! Hope all is well
Just an idea...but since many of us will be at the Texas Mile....how about lining them up on the airstrip for a best 2 out of 3 to the first 1/4 mile marker? Paulie can armdrop. 
I'm sure a couple of us could talk the coordinators into letting them do this after the first day on Sat.

Being a bike rider he should have seen that coming, I haven't raced very many but I haven't lost a race to a car yet, bikes always have the advantage, but the bigger thing is whether or not the biker was experienced, if he is a noob he wouldn't have a chance... nice race...

I've seen that video of the Supra and Busa somewhere before Art. I think the Supra was around 1000 rwhp or something crazy like that.
I have one of those fast crotch rockets. It's a 06 GSXR 1000 and it truly is scary fast. I hit that thing and it's hold on for dear life, it accelerates that hard. I don't think a 600-700 rwhp car would take a liter bike up to low triple digits. Unless the guy on the bike is a poor rider and ehhemmm aero challenged lol.
IMO it looked like the Busa wasn't racing him.
And that's all I've got to say about that- Forrest Gump

Good, no more mods on your part. Sounded like you were doing more.
As for me, drive up to Denver, I'd run you in a minute and I have no where near as much power as DrJ and I run pump gas only. Stakes bottle of JWB

1. You have too much time on your hands, why don't you come join in on the fun. Come in Sept. for the 60-130 or the TX Mile in October.
2. I witnessed Sean's car make around 650 rwhp on his OLD set-up...on which he ran a mid-high 6 60-130. I quoted that number b/c that is what I recalled. Come to think of it, he now has MORE power and has since run a high 5 60-130 time. In actuality, I have NO clue how much power he is making. Heck, could be 750 rwhp for all I know!!!
3. I never indicated I had more mods coming, I simply said that the car has a y-pipe right now (which based on other's dyno numbers adds about 5-8 rwhp). That is HARDLY modded. I simply said that you never know what I'll have as I may put the car back to stock or may put an aftermarket intake on the car. Time will tell.
Now you tell me. Does it bother you that Sean accepted the race from a dead dig knowing that the GT2 in his form is tough to launch? Or does it bug you more that a car with much less power that weighs much more is going to win? Orrrrrrrrrr, does it bother you that he posted a video of a bike cruising next to him and claim that he beat a Hayabusa when we all clearly saw him floor it while the bike sat there? Be honest!

p.s. Sean, pay attention, this is what it's like when you're having fun and ribbing someone without personally insulting them or calling them a "bully", "wigger" or "cheater"
