For sure they are very close! I actually couldnt get the busa inthe the 9.20's at swb like I did on the 14, it probalby would have happened but I got frustrated and put the arm on. The 14's clutch is also much better stock. To keep the busa from burning up clutch plates with me on it I had to do the clutch mods.

And it usually does 155-156mph but we had some great air that day! Ill let you guys know if I get into the .80's.

I'm not taking anything from Racers but he is also at the most ideal track as far as great air goes, Sacremento Raceway. If he raced down along the Gulf coast it would be a bit slower but faster than most regardless.

Don't forget, Wee...158 mph is on 87 octane pump gas also. That is probably what is holding his mph down.

The air that day was good, with a DA of 250 feet or so at around noon. Pure magic, I tell you!!

yes, Little Stacy's tail pipe is gray, does that mean bad gas?

Lol after riding all summer in 1500-2000 da days, I look forwar to anything close to 0 DA. Every once and a while we will get -1200 DA, cant wait for one of those days.

Maybe our mph clocks are generous, ill have to make it out to our other local track, Infineon and see if it runs the same time and mph.

For comparison, Nick Mazeika (aka a super-jockey) on Brock's 64" Busa:



I'm pretty sure this guy is 120 lbs. lighter than Racers, and I doubt this pass was made on pump gas, and it was made in November.

Wow 8,5's. Dont know, but this is the same track that I ran my 14 and it would do between 149-152mph depending on the weather. Maybe I got a freak, Others on busa's with the same mods as me were running 152mph (260lbs unsuited) and 154mph (200lbs suited) with similar mods. And there was a guy on a 14 running swb with a bar, brocks exhaust and race gas(not sure which one but his tip was gray) and he was running 152ish.

your bike runs a 3.16 backhalf, takes 230hp to get that backhalf number at your weight.

Not joking, seriously. One of the tracks in Cali supposedly looks like it goes downhill. One of my friends was stationed in Cali for a while and told me about it. That is why I'm asking. I dont know which track.

He was probably talking about Infineon Raceway. It doesnt run downhill, the shutoff area actually runs up hill so it looks like that. But then again what do I know lol.

Shit then smokin's stock motored 09 must be making some good hp too, he runs a 3.151 backhalf. You should plug that into your little calculator and see what it spits out. LOL You should know better than to replace real world numbers with bench racing calculators. Come on man, ease up a bit.

My intentions werent to post my slips here, but someone asked. If you dont believe my numbers thats fine, but Im done defending the bike or myself. It ran what it ran lol.

Hmm? Now there's another stock Busa that runs faster ,with a heavier rider, on pump gas, at a shorter wheelbase than 90% of the runof the mill stroked , stretched NOS breathing beasts that show up weekly around my parts? I'm impressed ,to say the least! Yeah , you deffinitely got room for improvement , Racers! By the way , do you hang out with Maxispeed by any chance? ha ha Crown him!
