But I would like to say this, that white Lembo would not stand a chance in a quarter-mile race with my street bike. but here's where it gets tricky, I have no doubt that we could pull him at that speed. But to make the power it would take to beat him on the street and get that power put to the ground on a 5 inch tire would not be easy. On the other hand, he has a 4 wheell drive, and 40 inches of rubber on the ground. That car is basically a fairytale. You will never see it on the street except for a special event like this. You won't see it at the track. Very often, because it really doesn't do good there. I'm sure you'll see it at the Texas mile, because that's where the four-wheel-drive cars do their best. But they still can't beat a motorcycle. LOL

By the looks of the races in this vid- it wasn't so one sided. In the first vid posted here, the races look like blowouts. Talk about video editing, lol!
Both races with the BMW in this vid show the bike matching if not winning the race.
Correction should be made, the beemer does NOT have a 100 shot, and as the owner told me, it picked up 5 mph in the 1/4 mile over NA.
01smokes, I think you would have been "edited out" if your sprayed 14 did a roll with him.

That night he trapped between 151-153. When the bike was stock wheelbase, I saw it trap 156.
He is VERY light, but his bike is not a great example of a properly modded beemer.
No power comander
No muffler (really, stock header and pulled can off)
stock gearing but has shift assist-i used it
absolutely slammed to the pavement (drain plug leaking)
stock slipper clutch- no brock's mod
His dry shot is a "guess" really. Kinda the way we use to slap them on our 12's, Gixx 1k's, etc.
I am just thinking about a hard hitting torque monster ZX14 with a GOOD rider, not a douche like Jon Von.
Hell, someone donate a little cash to the kid with the beemer and do that bike up right, watch out...
In the last vid, a low budget bike, cutting corners for sure, didnt get punked by the Lambos!
