So, after the long weekend I guess I still do enjoy my car. Totally different feeling. I don't feel the pull on the bike like I do in the car. Both have their ups and downs. I do love some AC though! We will see... Both are still pretty new to me. With the wonderful Kansas weather I am getting a lot of time driving... My Jetta, that is...

i have researched the bike, yes it is fast, all i can say is no bike has beaten me on the street, im positive that one wont either, now if its a pro driver track prep drs and work of course it could maybe if he misses no gears or wheelies or spins, and no i have no slips as i have never ran my car at the track on nitrous, as i have chased records NA but you should know that if i ran 132 and sprayed just a 100 shot it will usually pick up 10+mph and even if the bike can hit 160mph you should know i can spray it with more, and im sure you should know that mph doesnt win race's et does, you should know if i can run 9.99 NA i could run 9.00 or even 8.99 with nitrous since i have an automatic it can stay on the whole run, you do know that DPC300 ran10.58 NA and then 9.74 with a 150 shot with a progressive controller, and you do know i 60 ft better and will logically 60 ft better on the street, and you do know i can go to a 200 shot, forget all that you should know and make a boast that it cant be done, just show me your slip with the bike or the ferociousc6, not your uncles, dads or friends. if i beat 10 of these bikes and 1 wins or 9 win i still beat 1, you got to play the game to win![Thumbs Up](https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)

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.

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).

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.

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.

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 1.5s
is 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![Thumbs Up](https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)

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.

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?
I guess so
