Rider's lack of Huevos (*****) Or experience! Try that with someone who can ride. The video show the rider was in too high of a gear when the car took off & the rider shifted too early also.

That ZX6R should have at least been able to keep up. The top speed on it is about 155 but the acceleration is much faster than a car. The newer 636 or 07 ZX6Rwould have eaten the car for lunch!

You guys need to stop raggin on the rider, dude knew how to ride, and his shifting was fine. When I get my clutch next week ... any 636 can kiss my ***, ill post a video of one kissin it too = ) .. or if there is anyone in Portland, OR ..bring it on

what kind of ets are you bringing in your m3? i get guys here all the time with 11 second cars trying to race and get smaked down. if you are posting over a 125 trap speed then anything is possible but you better be bringing 150 against a liter bike.

Yeah, I looked up to see how far you were. Portland is a little far for me to ride just to whoop some Beemer ***. JK. I have Euro & Japanese tuner cars racing/ trying to race me off the line & on the freewayall the time and get embarrassed. Most back off when I downshift and accelerate.Only cars I worry about are the ones that can top 180 plus (Vipers & Vettes)and most of those drivers don't have the ***** to do it. You have to be a very good /great driver to beat a good rider off the line and during acceleation against a bike. The power to weight ratio is an advantage to the bike with a good rider. That video looks like the biker backed of or his bike ran out of gas or? If that was your car, I can understand you trying to defend your driving car. Either that or your car is VERY quick & has a high top speed. BTW, What is the top speed on your car that you have gone? And yes, there are some very quickor fast street cars on the road, but not many are both.

Havent ran it on the 1/4, I was snapping axles when the car was supercharged at 300whp (ran 13.2 @ 112mph), I can only imagine what it would do now, maybe when I upgrade the axles and drive shaft, but its not really a 1/4 mile car, more of a freeway monster.

I got something for a liter + bike

And your right the car doesnt stand a chance againts a bike off a dead line unless its got some big slicks and good traction.

The fastest I've gone was 160mph I dont think the car is geared to go faster than that.

With my experience, assuming the car waighs around 3000lbs

It takes about 420whp to beat a 600cc

500whp to beat a 750cc

and 700whp+ to take on a liter bike

With some C16 and 22psi the M3 should put out around 630whp

Now that vette would be a good grocery getter.
