Thanks guys for the comments. I've put about 200 miles on it over the past few days. Other than feeling a bit embarrassed about the odd looks I get cruising back and forth from my office, and around town running errands, I love it!
I am disappointed by the lack of races being set-up so far in my area, so if anyone has a turbo bike or fast highway roller (or knows of someone who is willing to run), I have a trailer and will travel. I didn't spend all this money to get compliments by valets.

Are you willing to race for money? You mention turbo bikes and I'm pretty sure I can get some guys with turbo bikes to run you headsup for cash. Will you run 1/4 mile or is it only from a roll?
If yes, please let me know the terms and I'll pass it along. I'm almost positive I can find a challenger for you...though with your gearing and power I can't see anything walking you, period.
IMO, you were better off keeping the GT-R bro. At least you had some competition lol.
It's lonely at the top, huh?
j/k

Be safe!

It has the capabilities to spank Jamie 1/4 mile though, IMO
. Roll on racing is a different story.
Edit: Actually I just saw this "1/4 = 9.0 @ 177 * on street tires"
Nevermind...GAME OVER!

Anyway, I was told that the baddest GTR on the planet was being built to race Jamie being that they wanted to race the fastest Underground Racing Gallardo. Jamie has a stage 1 R version and not the bigger power builds that make 2000 whp. I still think Jamie @ 1550+ whp will have plenty to take on any GTR from a roll, even if its gutted.

Jamie's Gallardo is the same setup and makes 100 whp more than the Underground Racing Gallardo that went 250 mph in the standing mile. Jamie's car shouldn't be drag raced as he has the wrong combo for that style of racing being that he has the standing mile setup. The mile setup Gallardo's would have a hard time beating a stock LP 560 in the 1/4.

Anyway, I can get a turbo bike to run for money from a roll :-)
Just let me know if you are willing and I will pass the info along and we can get this going!

4th.
GTR is no competition from a roll. Only chance it has is at lower speed rolls. They are only geared to a tick over 200mph, maybe 210...

I'm game for a money run against a turbo bike. Just PM me for details.
