I am trying to hook up with a local guy on a turbo busa going.
The plan was 60-230 though not 130 with UGR and the Lambos.
Busa will be making about 400 HP but needs help in the setup department. He's run pretty even with me through the gears when we've run stock motor n/a pump gas so he can ride ok....but night time 200+ isn't his forte and I'm trying to help him get up to speed.

Your spot = Downhill for 8/10th's, 3//8th's mile until right bend afer blind uphill into oncoming passing zone. Let me know if you want to run real 9/10th's and I will set it up with Sal.
Otherwise, please go away...

Shane if you want to run at sal's turf you need to clarify the terms. You're being interntionally ambiguous and vague. You've ducked 3 times now, please clarify because I'm not going 1500 miles for any type of bait and switch shit:
I'll repeat since it may have gotten lost in the shuffle:
Stock motor 14R vs stock motor 12R.
Both run whatever fuel.
Both are stock ride height.
Both are on stock wheels.
Both are stock wheelbase.
You on your 14R, me on my 12R.
Any other details?

page 3, your motor is not stock so stop saying stock vs stock.

You're saying I have headwork done when I don't. I told you already it has 3 stiffer clutch springs. Don't gotta hate on me just cuz I can run some mph you can't. You can ET me at the strip as it is right now....am I saying you're only able to do it because you're squeezing?

Dude, I don't care about your wheelbase, ride height or wheels. Choose what you want...as will I. You have BST's on hand, and you are physically at least 90 lbs lighter than me...
Me and you, 9/10th's....it's that simple. My caveat is this...win or lose, we settle our differences racing. I say one run, but we can work that out....

Ok....now we're moving forward instead of intentionally being evasive and vague.
Since you're dancing around the issue what you're saying is:
Both of us stock motor n/a
12R vs 14R
Anything goes.
Am I correct in understanding that?
Anything means ANYthing.....am I correct?
Lets not cry about my weight after making the challenge there. You are the one making 200+ Hp....not me. You're the one with the HP, TORQUE and STOCK WHEELBASE ADVANTAGE.
If you agree to keeping it stock arm I will accept. If you're coming out stretched we're going from higher than traditional 9/10ths starting RPMS. Remember you are no shotcaller, this is part of the negotiations.

You guys don't have to ride all the way down to Sal .. We got 3 empty 6 mile long bridges here in Saint Petersburg/Tampa ..All concrete ( great hook )... Me and Doc Ryan can set it all up .. Both of you can crash at our shop , so no motel costs ..

I'd be down for that Smok.
Still waiting on Shane to answer though. I've got an inherent weight advantage and he's got an inherent hp/torque advantage. I'm not giving up wheelbase on top of that from a low speed roll-on. He's got to come out stock arm or we're going from a higher RPM roll.

3000 rpms 1st gear is fine with me, traditional 9/10ths style.
I'm fine with 1 run.
Stock wheelbase and I'm interested.
If you're stretching the bike to counter the wheelies we will go from higher RPMs.

I don't care what wheelbase you use with your 90+ lbs weight advantage....

Shane, if you don't want to lock it in just say so dude.
If you're not going to run me from 3000 rpms 1st gear on the stock swingarm like I am just say so now.
Are you stretching the bike or not? Why be so evasive?

I'm not being evasive. I am going to run the most wheelbase I can and hook. Simple as that.
