I just got the Data logger. it is just hard for me to believe that we are having about 10 to 15 MPH of wheel spin with Randall on the BikeGeared for 215 and on the rev limiter at 199.2 just seems like a LOT to me! So I guess I will have to gear for 225 to 230 just to go 210 to 215? We ran 19 / 43 and now it looks like I may have to go 19 / 40 or 41! THAT IS A SERIOUS AMOUNT OF GEARING!!
19/40 is like 18 / 37 and I have seen Stroker HD Bikes using 28 to 30 tooth Counter Shaft sprockets!

Well, 200 mph is 293 feet per second, and (for example) 200 hp is 110,000 ft lb per second, so the thrust of 200 hp at 200 mph is 375 lb. (Didn't know that till figuring it right now, but knew it was a lot.)
The rear tire really is pushing hard against the pavement in these runs, even in top gear!
Running nitrous your rear tire is pushing with even more force than this!

Hopefully 50% more or about 562.5 Lbs. Now we are starting to get into numbers I can understand
The Max Power my bike will make is 312 HP I fell short of the goal of 325 by 13 HP
