Panda vs GSXR 600
 
I normally dont post here but I guess this is something good to post.

Went out for a cruise tonight with my girl to downtown and as we were leaving this guy in a GSXR 600 started following me, I knew he wanted to have some fun, I thought about is and decided what the hell, as soon as we got a good straight away we gunned it, I was running off the wastegate at 10lbs, we were about even with him inching away, so put the boost controller on channel 1 "12lbs" went for it again got him by a car, third race from a dead stop:(, put the boost controller at channel 3 "14-15 lbs, he got me by about 2 cars off the line then started to catch up but he let off, forth race still at channel 2 setting from 3rd gear roll killed him by about 3 cars and he let off...

We stopped to talk after and he was a cool guy, he now wants a 1000 to get revenge...LOL...

Good times, I can't believe my girl was cool about the whole thing, got up to about 150 on the forth race..

My setup
TO4R
Monster V-mount
1300cc secondary and 550cc Prim
dynoed 375WHP at 14 lbs

Killing motorcycles on turns is one thing, but in a straight is freakin' awesome.

KaiFD3S 08-05-09 07:16 PM

I don't really get to race much here in Juneau as a lot of people is scared of the car, but bikes will always want to race...LOL..too bad that I forgot my Iphone takes video, could've had the woman film it....Oh well next time..

Nice kill, people always think bikes are always the best. Funny when they get more then they can handle.

Kai - What app are you using on your Iphone for video or do you have the S? I have the 3G and I can't find an app that works for video.

KaiFD3S 08-07-09 09:32 PM

I have the 3gs, comes with the video

GoodfellaFD3S 08-07-09 10:40 PM

Turn the boost up to 20 psi and you'll be surprised by how much faster your car will be :D

375 whp can beat a 600cc bike? I thought it would take more than that. Any idea on what year the bike is? I thought the new ones would be much faster.

cptpain 08-12-09 08:33 PM

600's are easy...

Its the liter bikes that are trouble

TwinCharged RX7 08-12-09 08:42 PM

Cool, i didn't know that. I used to have an RC51 (older, heavier liter bike) a few years ago and the new 600's were starting to get into that range (mainly the ninja 636) because they were so light and making over 120hp. The new liter bikes are just crazy these days. I tested out a new gsxr 1000 last month and rolling into full throttle in 3rd would bring the front up pretty easily unless you were really leaning on the front of the bike.

Ahhhhh..... I LOVED my RC51.. It just sounded like it wanted to eat one of those lil 600 for lunch every time I started it (Jardine carbon race pipes).

Yeah, 600's are really not too quick from a roll. They don't have the torque. Now, my R1 on the other hand is a different story.

Good kill Kai, I do enjoy reading when a cocky rider bites off more than he can chew. From the sound of it though he may want to hone his skills a lil more before stepping up to a liter bike. They are such a different bike and demand much more talent to pilot. Much like a high HP RX7...

TwinCharged RX7 08-14-09 12:51 PM

Sweet, I got rear ended and the bike was totalled :( I had the full acropovik titanium system with the carbon slip ons. So I know what you mean by the sound oo7.

RotaryEvolution 08-18-09 04:19 PM

yea, it's really not as bad as people think to kill <1L bikes on the straight in a decently fast car. in fact it's more difficult to keep up with most on windy roads with a skilled rider unless you have some seriously sticky tires..

my ducati supersport is actually a fucking dog on the straights but it can take twisties since that is what it was made for.

oo7arkman 08-18-09 09:41 PM

^^agreed. I used to love ripping through the mountains up by where I used to live in colorado on my bikes. I think I could do it just about as fast in my 7, but I think the bike still takes the cake for fun factor. There is just something about nothing around you doing 100+ with 800 foot drops a few feet away. HeebeeGeeBee factor is outrageous.
