We had a drag race from a standing start... me on a '98 6R, a buddy on a '02 6R, another buddy on a GSX-R1000...
1st - '02 6R
2nd - '98 6R
3rd - '02 GSX-R1000
The gixxer is a beast, but it is WAAAAAYYYYYY harder to launch smooth and inevitably we get a HUGE jump on him in the 1/4 he can't seem to make up. Even more pronounced coming out of turns btw...
I'd like to try it against someone who is better at launching the Gix 1k... supposedly their 1/4 time is quicker in ideal launches... not in my real world...
