Well, as funny as this does sound, with him beating a r6 w/n2o..i woundent disbelieve it. I had a 07 r6 with slight mods and got beat by a couple cars. If he raced a r6s, then yes since they puttin 15hp less, so his n20 would match a stock r6. But hey, thats just my experiencs with bikes that ive been on since 17yo.

I believe that s2000 is nasty

By the way OP, I asked my friend who owned a turbo s2000 much like the one you have if it was the indeed the same. He said it wasnt. I was wrong. It looked just like it though.

His is owned by some guy in Virginia. I think it has a CF black hood too.

gsxr 1000 run low 10 high 9 quarter times...big difference

Since we are being a dick,

First off BRO a 15 shot on a bike like a r6 which is barely 150 hp is comparable to a 50 shot on a car.

Next I am a member of both www.r6-forums.com and Suzuki GSX-R Motorcycle Forums: Gixxer.com ( I have always been into bikes) and I can tell you that a r6 with a good driver stock height not slamed and streched at sea level ( I live in mississippi maybe you are in elevation or something ) will go low 11's high 10's all day long. They are actually rated (magazine which doesn't count for much ) at midhigh 10's. 10.7-10.8's off the show room floor.

A 1000 gixxer on the other hand which has a higher ride height and a less stable body which causes for a slightly wobbled start are rated at low 10's with a good driver and a pro driver can scratch the high 9's.

So with a 15 shot on a bike you are now looking at a r6 which can now run LOW 10's not HIGH 10's ( where do you get your gd info from anyway maybe you should research ) which puts it right with a stock gixxer.

Which brings me back to why I said it did not add up that you beat a sprayed r6 by 8 car lengths in which race you started at a LOWER speed giving the bike MORE advantage ( which is almost 3 seconds difference in gap time ) over a stock 1000 gixxer that beat you be TWO car ( not bike lengths you said car ) when you started at a HIGHER speed giving the car MORE of a advantage over previous races.

Good job on the races there is no video I take word of mouth and it was a street race same with drag races there are lots of variables that go into a race. But I'm just pointing out the fact that you won't always have the same out come with these bikes.

Keep up the good races.

Later

ive never seen an r6 come anywhere close to a midhigh 10 stock. i think the fastest i have seen one at any track was an 11.0x with an incredible rider who also has a busa runnin 8's.

idk all i can say is i pulled on the r6 and got pulled by the gixxer i woulda got vids if i had a camera at the time and yes it was 2 car lengths not bike lengths but he was my last run maybe my ic was heatsoaked i have no idea all i can speak for are my results.

im glad i did that good against a 1000cc bike on my 580 tune i need to hit up the track with 790hp and see wat she does before i get kicked out after 1 run.

There's an S2000 that's identical to yours in Lancaster Ohio. Wheels, hood, trunk, everything. Its even turbo'd. We sat and talked the other day about it. His makes slightly over 450 to the wheels on 93 with a Garrett BB turbo. Not sure which one. I see him all the time. I'll have to get some pics next time.

I know Im late to the party but.......

May I ask who tuned you? Theyve just had a few s2k's come through a shop local to me that have been making some great power.

and does this guy really not think that a 550+ S2K can take a 600?!? lulz.

I love my honda, just got re-tuned yesterday and will probably be sticking to hondas for a while now.

A new 600 especially a r6 can trap over 130 and YOU WILL NOT beat a bike in low gears you might run it out of gearing but good god you people are saying your pulling frieght trains on bikes in low gears where they really shine. Lets get real here.

*edit* I even forgot what thread this was, not only are we saying a 550 whp honda s2k can put freight trains on a newer r6 which traps high 120's low 130's STOCK we are talking about pulling freight trains on one that has a nitrous shot on it. Regardless if it was in your eyes just a "15 shot" do you realize what a 15 shot does for a bike. That bike is trapping mid 130's with that nitrous shot.

I'm sorry but I actually know bikes, I don't give a **** what your hear say is. You are beating the DRIVER not the bike. You find a adequate driver on that bike and he will pull away from you at the speeds you raced. I know this is css.net where people live in fairy land with unicorns and rainbows but some of this **** gets ridiculous.

Also I am talking at sea level which is where i live, if you live in high alt then yes the out come will be different which I have stated previously in this thread.

OP good races , your car is beast I'm not trying to take away from it I wanted to get that out there. Sorry if I cam off that way.

thank you for the compliment but i trapped 111 in the 1/8 so what trap speed do u think that would be in the 1/4 where my car really shines. s2k with similar traps in the 1/8 were at high 130's and low 140's

Read the whole thread not the last page, I just point out the facts that people causally say they can whip 600's like it isn't a thing. I pointed out that yes you can beat a bad driver but that isn't always the case. ******* unicorns and rainbows I tell you

But once again to the OP nice car thing is a beast. Once again you know I"m not taking away from your car. But I believe me and you have established that through all this lol.
