Guess my bike was a freak but I know people that have seen my bike can vouche for it.
    Did you have that orange 600? If so, that was by far the fastest 600 I've ever raced. It was like a rocket below 100mph.

    Wouldn't say you "never lost" though. Unless you consider victory at some point before we shut down heh

    lol yeah we raced to 155+ that was only time I was passed before I shut down and thats alot for a little 600 haha but you caught me around 135-140 but your z06 wasn't stock hehehe I had to shift 4 times per your 1 haha. And yes it was OJ with the Tribal black on it when I had it.

    Your bike wasn't stock either ;-)

    I also had a passenger. And come on, I had to shift TWICE!! ;-) Shifts are way more "costly" in a car than a bike anyway

    But yeah, it took me to about 130mph to pass you, because I had to makeup the ground I lost at the beginning. I would imagine that my car (and others) probably match or overcome your acceleration around 100mph. Bikes don't have the aero to keep pulling at high speeds like cars do.

    But we also started at 60-150 not my race. I don't care I had fun I know my bike wasn't the fastest thing ever all it had was exhaust slip on and -2 gears. But I don't see how people beat 600' in 300whp cars or even 400whp. And my bike from 0-120 would be ahead of you and you had a low 500whp z06 at the time if I am correct. Not trying to start fights about the past I did say you you where ahead of me I was just wondering why a r6 would race a 400whp goat?

    I've raced several 600's that I would immediately pull on (not having to catch up like I did with you).

    This is going off subject, but bikes racing cars is stupid anyway. They're two completely different vehicles. A 500lb 2 wheel vehicle vs. a 3 - 4klb 4 wheel vehicle is silly. A bike has a much much more rigid suspension and does not suffer nearly as much "shock" to the tires as a car does.

    Whereas a bike has a disadvantage at high speeds, it's not nearly as big as the advantage it has at low speeds or a dig.

    I guess people can have "bragging rights" for beating a bike with a car, but they're just not in the same class and it's not a good matchup at all.
