Beating A R6

You have to learn to park away from people or atleast park near respected vehicles. Try to avoid parking near cars that are already beat up and it's not too good of an idea to park near suburbans and such since they are likely to have kids which can't really control the door (door dings :nonono: )

See thats just it i park all the way in the back but i think the one time i decided to run in quickly to grab something i parked around the middle and then i came out and it got hit. And as for the bike i was in the last parking spot in the very back of the lot and i ran in for 10 mins come back out to find my bike laying on its side and it couldnt have been hit by a car because it fell on the right side if it was hit it probably would have been hit on the left side with the kickstand and it fell over but there was no damage at all to that side so i think it was pushed over by someone in my school that is mad cause i now have a bike a long with my stang. Guess ill have to start riding my bicycle up to walmart now lol

Bikes are wicked fast, I hate say it but if you held him off, either he wasn't trying or his bike was running on 2 cylinders. My bone stock ZX12R ran a 9.4@148 mph the first time at the strip. R1's are good for high 9's-low 10's, with the 2006's being similar mph to my 12.

ok dude, you must be the best rider around to get times like that. I was at the track on wed. night and there were a couple of bikes running 10s but most of the rest were stuck in the high 11s to the mid 12s. harleys were running 15s. it takes a professional rider to get those bikes close to anything like your saying.

ok. i apoligize. your a professional. but most people arent, so lets go out and smoke some bikes.

I really hate when that happens, on the weekend I finally found time to get the TA back together so my brother who has the same car, same year and I decided to go out to the ummm....track and have a few 1/4 mile runs. My g/f came along with her camera and got two great vids of me getting my a** kicked and one of me winning, then she accidently [so she says :( ] taped over the last vid of me winning, much to everyones delight :bang:
One of my friends has a 92' Mitsubishi 3000GT VR4, pretty cool car.Sure doesn't go like that Stealth of your's though :nice:

Haha it's all in fun though :D thanks for the compliment, appreciate it! The cars so fun it's just unreal all of the features they packed into one ride, cant wait to get the new setup finished this year and hopefully go lay some lengths between the bikes and get some more vids for all ;)

While I'm no longer racing professionally I do still try to get out there from time to time.
Just for the record ,by just saying that there were "a couple bikes" really doesn't mean much, it's like me saying "Cars are slow, I was at the track and there were cars running high 14's but most were in the mid 15's!!!"
Without knowing what make/model/size/year the bikes were, I can't even say wether they were bad drivers or not :shrug: Performance can vary greatly between years [like a 98' and a 99' Mustang ] and makes and models. A Yamaha XV1100 for example is good for a mid 13 second pass where as a YZF1000 is good for mid to high 9's, while an older YZF will only be in the high 10's-low 11's.
