      Real cool until he started flying around on normal roads. Idiots like this get innocent people killed. Keep this kind of crap on the track.

        the vid wouldnt load for me, but i think this was in C&D a few months back, the guy that does twin turbos on lambos and GT's. they talked about the lambo bieng hard to drive because it would continually lose grip on all four wheels if you tried to nail it

            wow, i'm kinda surprised he cant pull a turbo'd busa. i have friends with 700 rwhp cobras that walk mildly-modded 1000's on the freeway. i woulda thought his top end woulda beat a 1300

              If a car ever beats a bike, its because the car has way more time invested tuning than the bike. Take that kinda money and put it into the bike.!!!! You'd crap yourself. Bigger motor, twin turbos yada yada ya. On the track Im positive that a tuned liter class bike would still lay the smack down. You cant go fast on the straight unless you can get outta the corner! Somone should set up a time attack event with that car and a 1000rr or something.

              I definatley agree with the bullcrap of street racing. That kinda power especially belongs on the track.

                Bikes will usually win off the line and through the twisties... but if you're just going straight I'd bet on the car most every time [provided it isn't a 94 Grand Voyager ]

                  well considering most 600cc rockets are 10 sec bikes right off the factory, but some mods on that and the car will never touch it. It just depends on how big of balls the rider has


                  I just want this stuff gone, super low prices

                    even if he has 1300 horsepower he has to remember hes has 3400 pounds to slow him down and 4 wheels to cause friction. dont get me wrong his car is super nice and id take it anyday

                    but a turbo busa... sick

                    around 20 seconds to reach 220 mph

                      Im all over the turbo'd bikes, but I do have a certain disgust for Hayabusa's. They're just not a superbike. Although in the realm of balls out power wars, the longer more stable chassis is an obvious choice and let me just say that I wouldnt mind riding one myself .

                      This guy doesnt plan to slow his ambition for power until he beats a modded rocket. He comes off as very ignorant.

                        That car is insane. Latest info on the car that the new GT42R's are on the car. New numbers are 1320rwhp and torque is in the 1000's too. Apparently the MAF is pegging out and the boost controller is maxed at 30 lbs. Once all that is fixed its gonna be unreal.

                          After watching the first few seconds on the track it showed me this guy is flat out stupid...

                          These cars are VERY bad about the back end coming loose anyway, toss this much power at an unstable platform, and you have someone who is going to go out and kill himself, we can only hope he doesn't take anyone else with him when it happens...hell, he couldn't even drive it in a straight line

                            The owner wasn't the guy driving it at the track, the guy driving it at the track was the guy from the shop who is doing all the mods.

                            And in the video he mentions that the tires they have on it aren't sufficient for what they are doing and they are looking into better tires.

                            I agree with the street racing though. Watching 120hp civics race on the highway is bad enough. A 1000+ hp monster is just asking for a massive accident.

                              bikes are way faster. Ok a 1000cc GXR can hit 60 in about 2 seconds add nitrus or a turbo and there is no way a car is that fast.
