I also vote for ******* with you. As 1Revvin7 said, those things turn 10s stock. I think he was sandbagging on purpose. Any idiot knows to downshift if they mean business.

Well we are talking about a bike pulling 3 cars from 100-120, I'd say he was on it at that point. To pull 3 cars at over 100mph in that short of a time is getting you *** handed to you big time hehe!!!! It sounds like he might have layed into it slowly though. Maybe he wasnt sure you were racing at first and then by the time he realized and decided to go wot he was at 100.



Anyway, thats what I think happened, he wasnt sure at first so he kinds rolled into and was at wot at 100 when he ran off and left you lol



I'd love to race a bike on the highway when I get finished with my car!!!!

I am use to fat guys on harleys that only run 14's or so....



So this guy suprised me. Yep he handed my *** to me at over 100 very quickly....

I don't have a lot of experience racing bikes, but if you look at the power to weight ratio, even the "slower" ones are going to be pretty tough to beat, especially if the rider is experienced/crazy enough to run wide open. They don't call 'em crotch rockets for nothing.
