So I took the r6 to the 1/4 last friday… It’s a bone stock 2003 with just a slip on. I only ran 3 times…It was MOM racing so we didn’t get a lot of time. my best run was a 11.44 at 122.69 ran a 2.0 60 ft time which should be better (i suck at launcing) my 1/8 was 7.49 at 100.75. There was a bunch of evo’s and sti’s there running high 13’s low 14’s :cjerk: I laugh everytime I hear a sti driver with minimal mods saying he can run in the 12’s because that’s what the magazine says. ---

122 trap seems pretty slow I guess thats why turboed civics have no problem walking 600s ---

They could run 12’s. And if that was your first time to the track those are some pretty decent numbers! Good Work! ---

I’d call your first time launching an effing light bike with a short ass wheelbase to an 11 second 1/4 mile without flipping yourself over backwards a success. :tup: ---

Yeah like I said…my 60 foots are pretty bad… I was having a hard time keeping the front down. I felt pretty good becasue one of the guys I went with had an 06 r6 and ran a 13.5 haha. I also ran a new gsxr 1000 and he ran a 10.9X at 128. ---

well i understand 60’s on a car matter too but when your riding an Inline 4 600 cc bike and you redline at 16xxx rpms… and you launch out of the hole at 1k rpm and are NOT making any power up until 10k, you will never get into the 10s… thats as far as my point goes ---
