gsxr 600 vs turbo truck??
 
Got a guy with a gsxr600 with intake and pipe wanting to run my truck tonight, im wondering how you guys think this might go down? Iv seen lots of cars pull these bicks but couldn't find much on how they run against a truck. I trapped 125.9 on 17psi I can turn it up a little bit but not much im about out of fuel, my converter is a bit on loose side so it hits really hard from a roll but suffers a bit after 120. Race will most likely be 50-130

get a lower roll if you can, keep him down lower in the power band in first... but i think you should be able to get him. and the rider is a HUGE factor on a bike!

How big is the guy? 600's are really sensitive to rider weight as they are not the most powerful. I think it should be a good run, most people can't ride them as they are meant to be ridden anyway.

125 trap is not enough man. That's gonna be real close. Good luck

Hes about 150lbs and hes a good rider, I think hes going to beat me aswell but idk, I cant go any slower or ill just spin cause id have to start in first.

I ran a 600 when my truck was trapping 128ish and held him off pretty easy.

Well I raced him, went from 50 and stayed side buy side till I shifted into third and the truck started to miss out for a sec or 2 then it cleared back up but by then he was a truck lenth ahead of me and by 130 he was 1.5 ahead, I really think it would of been a close run had it not missed out, idk what's going on I made like 4 wot pulls before and it was fine, I changed the log manifold gasket yesterday I must have a damaged plug or wire, it went rich to 10.0-10.2 when it misses out so im sure its spark.

Yeah, that sounds like it would have been a good run. Get vid next time!

I ran 600s with my 4.8 on 18psi and it was a massacre every time, no matter what speed. That's with the extra weight of a 4wd. You'll be fine.
