I am sure he was surprised. I have a 2006 Kawasaki ZX10R and the bike is scary fast. Any car I have run with hasn't even been a contest. I couldn't imagine if my turbo was as fast as my bike. Guess I have to keep saving my pennies for a real turbo package!

. That Saturday was absolutely gorgeous so when Mark (Sand Bandit) invited me to a dyno event with a bunch of sweet cars I couldn't pass it up.As for the race, I was on it and was trying to ride her as fast as she would go as I figured Joe's car would be fast but I had no idea it would be that fast. I was only able to put about a car length, if that, on Joe's GT2. At one point I wasn't sure if he was still there (focusing on what was going on in front of me) so I popped up from behind my windscreen and looked back, when I saw he was still right there, I thought, holy s**t, and I ducked back down and twisted the grip again, hahaha.
Joe, good race we'll have to do it again
. Thanks for the kind words but I've only just got back on a bike about 9 months ago, I guess riding it every day though helps to build some skills rather quickly 
. As far as speed mods, my bike is all stock except for a Yosh slip-on exhaust. Its a quick SOB but when dealing with these caliber of cars one needs to bring more to the table than 150hp. I wouldn't stand much of a chance against that TT Viper. When you two got on it so did I but that thing is a monster and I could'nt reel it in so I gave up. I think if we started side by side from 60 I'd hang with him til about 130-140 to which he'd then just walk away from me. We'll have to try it .Also, I do believe during one of the races I saw 170+ on my digital speedomoeter. Do any of you have a GPS device? I'd really like to know how accurate, or inaccurate, my speedometer is.
Win or lose, looking forward to more races....
Mike

Joe,
I am going to support the hijacking claim in your sig, but you no longer have the worlds fastest GT2 if measured by 60-130.
However, you did post the all time coolest clip on 6 speed (the one where the Supra jumped in front of you in the 1/4 mile)....that was amazing!
