U4.2 works pretty good !
I was given 3 1/2 gallons of U4.2 from a guy that tried it Thurs and said it was CRAP ! I just poured
it in and rode to Wareshoals Dragway (w/o leather pants) and was able to make 1 pass.
1.371 3.698 5.716 123.15 - I had no plans of running but there was a guy there on an '08 Busa that was talking a lot of smack about 14s. He weighed 165 lbs, 6" over, air-shifter and Ti-Force pipe, not sure what else but he contributed to my GAS Fund !!! I am 173 lbs - 62", geared , SMeg, PC / No flies. We're suppose to do some roll -ons today.

Thats what I have been telling folks.........
We have been running it, and every bike that poured it in, gained in et and mph.
One guy gained 3 mph from pump gas. I am runnning the same numbers i was on U4.0. Just had to go up 6 percent on the PC like the VP rep told me to do.........
123.6 in the 1/8 in good air........., and 138 in the 1000 ft........, yeah, it did okay.

We rolled on 3 times and he was having problems - missing shifts "twice" from 1st to 2nd (he has an air-shifter ?). The last time we went from 2nd where he stayed in front until the top of 3rd - about midway through 4th we passed a trooper going the other direction and I headed home. He will have MR9 in it later - it should make a difference if it's got a good map.

Yup I just wish some of the guys around here with 14's would come out to the track. One guy thought he would run 9.50s right away and after 3 trips to the track and no 9 sec slip he won't come out and play anymore. Funny thing is he's always at the track watching. Maybe I can sell him one of my 9 sec slips! LOL LOL. I wish he would bring the dam thing back out so I could show him the bike will run 9.30's with a heavy guy on it.

Off topic but Bently are you guys getting any of that flooding up your way ?

Oh ya it's bad. We just went and rode thru parkersburg which is only 25 miles from me and that's where the Tornado went thru and flattend 240 houses. It was like driving thru a Movie scene, words can't describe it! My house is okay I'm 10 minutes from where all the flooding is going on. Iowa is in pretty poor shape right now. Don't know if you saw on the Busa board but my buddies 08 Busa got thrown out in his yard and totaled with less then 1000 miles on it. His 3 car garage was gone. He picked up a new one and I've been giving him a hard time that it won't be as quick as his old one, he went 9.26 at 591/2 inches.

There was actually 6 of the '08 Busas that came "out to play" later yesterday. 2 of them ran real well (seasoned riders) the others didn't fair so well. From a roll-on they do well down low, 2 of them could hold me off for a gear or 2 but after the top of 3rd the 14 seems to ease away. Both of these bikes made over 190hp on the same dyno, so I suspect the ram air effect on the 14 is superior o give it that extra pull on the other end. Today I'm going to ride 00 and watch them beat up on each other.

I have said this before , the ram air on the Busa just doesn't work as well as the zx14 ... Proof is just what happened to you ...The busa puts up bigger numbers on the dyno but the zx14 puts up bigger numbers at speed ..That is why you pull them back in the upper gears .. all one has to do is look at the ram air intakes on both bikes and one will see why ... Nice kills ... Keep up the good work ..
