Exactly!

Amen Brother. Damn - I just put up a post to prolong the anguish. Sorry

 

As a pure outsider, have to agree I sort of saw it that way too. Either way, must be nice to be able to scare a Busa rider into backing off... even though he very likely would have beaten the TT, the fact he didnt go at it like a hammer shows he had second thoughts.. which has to be worth something...

Sorry to keep this thread going.

 

Maybe he just thought; Oh, no another cager dick who wants to race my Busa. He probably gets 50 such tossers per day, kind of like us getting Fiat Puntos and Golf GTI's on our ***** tying to race our turbos. .

BDW, rider is wearing jeans, short sleeved T-shirt and a rucksack. Common, I won't ride over 120mph without a full leather kit, I have seen too many people with skin grafts from their *****. If you come off bike at 50mph, jeans are good for 3 metres, then it's all skin. When I am on my bike in such kit I keep it very cool in my head and don't raise to bait.

We can't beat power to weight ratio advantage of bikes versus cars till 180 mph unless serious rwhp as already said by many who know what they are talking about.

Keep this thread alive! .

 

Did anyone notice that the bike didnt even down shift? he was probably in overdrive, if he was in the right gear you would have heard the bike.

 

I beat a group of bikes this morning... They all stopped early on a yellow and I cruised through. Had the flashers on the whole way through the light.

 

Nice kill Powell! What kind of bikes did you slaughter? Too bad you didn't have your camera with you.

They ranged from 600's-1000's. Didn't really get a good glance to see if there were any Busa's this time. It's the same group of guys every weekend that I see if I head over to this part of town in the mid morning.

Oh yeah the best part about the kill is I was in the parents Tahoe. I'm not going to let anyone in on the mods though because it's a special Skinny White Dude Racing setup.

 

I already told the guys on the Tahoe forum about your run-in.

Sounds like a sic race. You are a really good driver to be able to time everything like that.

I mowed down this old lady driving a cutless. We were about to leave church and I cut her off to get out of the lot. The traffic cop was pissed, but I don't give a ****.

 

I love this kill debates, but just for the record guys as knowledge is power;

Busa:

0-60 mph = 2.8 secs
0-100 mph = 4.93 secs
0-124mph = 7.2 secs
Top end = 300.8. km/h

Just a “normal 1000” (my Aprilia for an example)

0-60 mph = 2.9 secs
0-100 mph = 5,3 secs
0-124mph = 8.8 secs
Top end = 280 km/h

You need serious bhp to road kill bikes.

 

The debate was never over whether or not Seans car had the power. He is running GT30's and can make the power easily. The debate was on whether or not the bike was actually running him.

 

I know, this is not my first post in the thread. ;-). And no, the bike was not running him. Data is provided to get a realistic perspective. How many bhp do we need in our 911's to get to 124 mph in just over 7 seconds. ALOT!

 

impressive. but I think it was a one man race.

 

Cutlass - I heard she was on a rascal. Good Kill

Due to company mandated Saturday night stay travel policies, I was forced to remain in Houston this weekend. Fortunately, a colleague from work invited me to his house for a Sunday afternoon BBQ.

We were just in the process of getting the grill started and the meats marinated, when all hell broke loose. His wife and child came running into the house sobbing hysterically. We were eventually able to calm them down and to origin of the grief.

Here is their story:

“We were just riding our bicycles to the McDonalds on Spring Cypress at 290 down in Mexico. The sidewalk ran out, so we were both riding in the bicycle lane on the street. I was on my bike and little Johnny was on his Big Wheel. All of a sudden, this silver Porsche pulls up next to Johnny's Big Wheel and the passenger starts screaming “I saw you belly shove, I saw you belly shove.” The driver honked his horn three times and then stalled his car."


"The entire time the passenger was laughing maniacally and ranting. I was only able to understand a few of his words, something about the Texas Mile and the word wigger not being used as pejorative. The car restarted, the horn honked three more times and off they sped. The really strange thing is that the passenger was capturing the whole episode on video tape.”

Once I heard their story, I let them know that everything was going to be fine and the two guys in the Porsche were probably just a little bit touched in the head.
