C5>GSXR600 / M3<Challenger

We will start with the recent corvette races. I stopped at a local shop where a bunch of guys in a local car club work. Think nyspeeders that own a shop lol. Two of the guys rode gsxr600s, one a geared 2000 one a stock looking 2005.

They wanted to run on zee highway, so I figured why not. From a 2nd gear roll verse the 2000 motor he got the jump on me and pulled maybe a car, but I ended up pulling that back and passing him at about ~130. Buy ~150 I had a solid 2-3 cars on him. We ran 2 more times with the same results.

We get back to the shop and talk and the guy with the 05 wants a run. He says he pulls hard on the 00. So we run from a 2nd roll and he destroys me motor. Time to turn on the :snky: Run him again and end up running really even until about 120 ish where I pull maybe 1/2 a car. We race one more time on the :snky: and I pull about 1 car at ~130 on him. I do not know what was done to the 05 bike.

Awesome shop, I got an oil change, tires ballanced and my allignment checked and put into my secs for $20 lol. yah -1.5 degrees of camber.

Friday night I stayed late at work installing a 3.91lsd in the M3. It deffinetly gives the car a little more get up and go. On the way out I did a nice little burn out to make sure the diff was good. :slight_smile: Well I’m driving home on zee highway once again and a black Challenger R/T (smaller hemi) flies up on me. I figure why not give this guy a run? We slow down to about 45 and run to about 120. He has an exhaust and it is a 5 speed. He only manages to pull 1/2 car! We run again about 50-130, he might have had 3/4. We run again with the same resaults. I was pretty happy with that for the daily driver. 350hp 5.7L V8 VS 3.2L I6 :lol:

I’ll be back at the track to see if she is braking into the 13’s yet. :slight_smile: haha

Awh a slow race is still a race right?

Nice. Now you just need some :snky: on the DD.

Nice kills.

What all is done to your c5?

heads cam spray … etc etc.

seriously? :lol:

a friend of mine had a 2000 gsxr 600 it was a track only bike (road race) and one day he took it to NYIRP and i watched him run a 10.6 on it… it freaking screamed. (it helped that he was a great rider) but still.

05 gsxr 600’s have gorgeous bodies imo, they were the best looking gsxr ever to be released.

almost as good looking as a 636… :-p

I purchased it ok!?

I love that body style gsx as well as the 636. Ugh if I had the money and my fiancee wouldn’t kill me.

We already settled that I won’t buy a bike again, but I get to have a permanently open cockpit car.

1400lbs :slight_smile: ~25K
