There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. Some kind of high powered mutant never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.

I'm in.

Just to make it more interesting, can we ask them to put a sweeping right just after the finish line. Or even better, maximum blast and hammer the brakes to stop on the line, points for max speed and closest to the line :lol:

Last time I drag raced was on an '86 fzx750 cruiser. 12.95sec in the first run and 12.94 in the second. Good tip, hold the gears out longer than u think and make sure u pull out of the kero with the rear still spinning (I forgot to do this on my second run and west sideways :oops: )

the best i could do was a 10.8. I struggled with wheelies and traction as soon as the boost came on full. i reckon with an extended swingarm i could go to low 10's maybe high 9's but i built it so i could do wheelies and handle in the corners. I have to pay respect to SUZUKIthere was a gsxr750 01' with a yoshi and power commander that ran a 10.6. but i did manage to consistantly beat the BUSA's and even one turbo BUSA.
Bikes make the world go round.
