08 Busa newest 1/4 mile numbers

Got an email earlier today from Brock and i wasn't going to post it till i got an OK from Brock to post it .. But someone on the Busa site leaked it out allready earlier today ..

9.76 @ 148 Richard Gadson riding Brocks 08 busa , same bike that Brock had on the dyno that made 177 HP ...The bike had Brocks clutch mod and strapped front end NO other mods !!! Brock stated it is FAST !!!


I did some checking in Brocks Diary part one ....Brock rode his 06 zx14 to a 9.76 @ 142 with just a strap and lowered ...

Brock at the time weighed 200 pounds and i believe that Richard Gadson weighs in at 150 pounds..

I will let you guys come to your own conclusions on the numbers ...

Below are the time tickets from Brocks diary part one ...Smokin...

Um Unless I am missing something this isnt looking good for the busa guys Not taking anyhting away from Brock but if he rode the 14 to a 9.76 and Rickey got the same numbers on the Busa as Brock got on the 14 this could get ugly

I think there gonna be close, i really wish it was like a few months ahead so all this talk would be proven. I love shit talk as much as everyone else, and i love Busa's but around here thats all everybody rides, which means they think there is nothing faster!! It really pisses me off. If i could live in another state at the same time i would own a busa. But i like to be different and i love my 14.

Lee I know who Richard is I just misread it LOL that is just as bad though cause Richard is a LIGHTWEIGHT.... ANd this is WITH THE CLUTCH MOD??? Lee does that not sound like bad news to you for the busa guys, I wonder if Brock is gonna put some spin on it or if he is going to just put it out there

No Brock is a stand up guy and i'm sure he will print it as it happened ... Yes with his clutch mod and strapped ...NOT lowered and that could make a difference ...

This is the first test and tune for the 08 Busa that i know of so the jury is still out ....But if it's this close what happens when Ricky get his hands on a 08 zx14 ???? Could get ugly real fast ....

Lee is that 148 a typo that you first posted versus the actual ticket?

I didn't see the ticket .. Brock told me the 08 Busa ran 148 MPH .. Someone else posted it was 147.99 ... That might as well be 148 ...Smokin..

Ricky said the new 14 feels STRONG! I hope it does get ugly LOL i would love to see a blowout, but I dont think it is going to happen and it probably wouldnt matter even if it did we wouldnt be able to convince anybody. That is the real Magic of the Busa they need to change its name to David Koresh or Jim Jones cause people think the busa hung the moon and that nothing can touch it even when the facts prove them wrong

If it went 149 with stock exhaust it's going to fly with Brocks pipe, I can sleep better tonight now knowing it will out run my 06 14, now we will see how it stacks up against the 08 14.

those numbers are good but your comparing a bike with clutch mods oil change no mirrors n 500 miles on it to a no mod 14 with 100 miles on it
