I put the pulley/tune on my car a few weeks ago and ever since I have wondered how I would fair against a 600.
Yesterday, I went out for a little drive with a couple of my buddies with bikes. One has an 03 GSX-R 1000 and the other has an 04 ZX-6R Kawasaki with exhaust.
I knew that I had no chance beating the 1000 because I have played with him before in my car. I have also ridden his bike before and I know that it is an absolute beast - truly scary fast.
So I tell my buddy with the 600 that I want to try a race from a 40mph roll. He gave me the jump but he almost instantly pulled about 3 cars on me and it stayed that way until I shifted into 5th gear. 5th gear slowly reeled him in but we had to shut it down because we were running out of road.
After seeing how hard he pulled me at low speeds I decided I wanted to race him from an 80 mph roll. Once again he gave me the jump. I was in 4th this time. When we started off, his front tire was about at my door. He slowly pulled about up to my front bumper but then he had to shift. When he shifted, I started gaining the distance back on him. When we shut it down at about 135 he was back at my door.
Needless to say, I was pumped to be able to hang with a 600. Now that I raced him I really want to get a ported blower and some spray so that I can really pull him next time.
Does anyone know how much hp it would take for a terminator to hang with a 1000? I've seen a video of a 600rwhp Z06 beating 1000's (from 100 to 185)
