you got both, which one do you feel safer at 150+mph

I have no numbers to show you, I just found it funny how you just make stuff up. Pretty soon you will be running imaginary 8s because you have an automatic transmission and nitrous, based on whatever math you feel applies to you.

So based on my driving, even though I haven't been to the track, with my automatic and god-mode tires, ill run a 10.05 @136. Bone stock. And if you question anything, I have an automatic. And math.

OP, enjoy the car. If its running right, you'll have a blast every time you hit the throttle.
And remember, if you have an auto... Just ask Dennis to apply his math to calculate what you will run and what you will beat.

Meh, I have 3 track-only bikes (see sig).
It's just different.

On the track, cars are fairly boring to me:
Oh no! Don't push that braking zone! If you brake too late you might... go off line? get dirty? If you get on the gas too early/hard, you might... spin? Get dirty? Dont brake too hard.... ABS will engage? Whatever.

There is no connection between the car and the driver in comparison to the bike. It's like playing a video game in comparison. The only rush I get is the fear of a tow and repair bill. That's not fun.

On the street, I like sports cars. I can push it here and there, pull up in a nice car, scare a girl, fishtail a bit, etc. To hell with doing that on the street or even gearing up for a short street ride.

On the street, the only rush I get from a bike is fear of impending death because of an known oil spill or an idiot driver, and that (like the fear of repair bill on the track) isn't fun. On the street, I just have fun with the car.






In short: You can't look at them the same way. Car is fun for spirited little drives and throttle bumps and rolling turns. Driving at 40-50% is fun. You can drive at 70% on the street. Driving 40-50% on a bike is boring as hell on a bike, and that's about as much as you can do on the street.

Can you break this one sentence in to at least 8 or 9?


Not busting on you at all so please dont take it as such.....but how on earth does your car hook at all from a stop light if the tires are cold?

+1.

Also, who cares if it's faster? Faster doesn't mean more fun, especially faster in a straight line. My 06 600RR is way way way more fun than my 1000RR and it's down about 40-50hp (that's a ton on a bike).

all i can say is, experience know how. but i will break it down for you. i have been street racing for 40 years. how do you take a bolt/ons only car to 1.41 60 fts, of the thousands of c6s that have ran at the track you can count on 1 hand. and you can count on 2 fingers NA c6s stock cubic inch that have 60fts 1.34 or better, and on a track that other c6s with LS7 and ran 9s with 1.3 60fts before, but that same
day only ran 1.5sis it magic? of course not its know how. my car is set on kill on the street, you dont have to do a burnout with the right tire the right weight transfer the right shocks and the right shock settings the right amount of air pressure that the tire duplicates the heat of the burnout from driving, burnouts on the street usually makes you spin, extremely hot tire, cold road, makes spinning. try it

I sold my bike and bought a roof and a heater. Now I don't get wet, or cold. The roof and the heater is called a Z06. Plus I have a great stereo, a little moving around room, and can put more stuff in it. I could care less which one is faster, especially in the 1/4 mile. I am 58 years old and have never been down a 1/4 mile drag strip.

lets see if you can get into the 12s firstthe problem with your imaginary 10.05 @ 136 is my 10.16 NA is documented on the fast list

So where's your documented runs in the 9s? Or you on spray, running 144?
I have my run documented with your runs.

In all fairness, a mildly track prepped ninja 250 (very slow) is probably more fun than a Z06 on the track.

Point taken, it's less fun in the snow :p

Hold on, you ran a 10.163 in an auto LS2 C6 with a cold air intake, catback, stall and electric water pump? Right.
Did you notice the guy above you ran 2mph slow, had gears, heads, cam, drag radials, tune, and etc?
Unless your cold air intake is actually an air compressor, no way, no way. You're taking about a 370rwhp car, at best, on street tires. That's basically an LS3 C6 with a converter running damn near 10 flat? What a joke.

possibly but i have ran it on the street many times, and it hasn't, so i will make it easy i will bring it down to a 50 shot, so i think you guess a 10.15 now tell me realistically a 100 shot; i already told you it has a fuel cell with c16 when spraying wideband hp tuners dual rpm switch fuel pressure switch all the bells and whistles, all NX

Maybe I'm missing something, but you're about 150hp short of a 10.1 and 131mph.
505hp Z06s trap ~120mph. did you really gain 250hp from a CAI, exhaust heads and cam?
