But if I had to guess with you getting 10 car length start against a stock bike while you're spraying, yeah I think you'll win

I don't see how he'll be running 12s. I'd say traction is going to be quite a problem and he'll be running low 13s on a good day. 10 car lengths with the unbelievable launch on the GSXR 1000 I honestly don't think will be enough. He has 3 seconds on you in the quarter...each second is about 4-5 car lengths....so honestly if he's a good driver he'll take you.

Not to pass poor judgement...
I know that on my 2006 gsxr 750, I can get up to 88 in second gear (within only a few seconds). So honestly, with a gsxr 1000 you could probably go faster than that and that means less shifting and more hanging onto your ass and just twisting the throttle. Not to mention the bike pus rider is still almost 3000lbs lighter...
Take a look at these specs and tell me how this car is going to beat a bike that is capable of going 115 mph in only 1/8 mile...
Here's some specs on a 2005 GSXR 1000
1/4 Mile ET: 9.875
1/4 Mile MPH: 141.420
1/8 Mile ET: 6.428
1/8 Mile MPH: 115.540
0-60 Foot ET: 1.735
Temperature F: 83.0
Timeslip Scan:
Car Make: Suzuki
Car Model: GSX-R
Car Type: 1000
Car Year: 2005

I agree.
From the second you take off, you'll be spinning tires, every second wasted there, is a second for the bike to catch up. In order for the bike to lose, you would have to be running 12's. And with your setup, I see you at around low 14's, high 13's at best, depending on tuning and driver. My money would have to be on the bike. Be sure to get this on video. And will this be at the track?

Here's another thing... You are getting a ten car lead on this bike...
Acura CL = 15 feet (give or take)
15 X 10 = 150 feet
1/4 mi = 1320 feet
That leaves you with 1170 feet to win...
So, you figure that you are only getting an 1/8 of a 1/4 mile lead on him.
You think that your car could pick up and go from a dig and win against a bike that does a 1/4 mile in 9.875 seconds???
You see 10 second hondas... Big turbos, no interior, fiberglass (fake) panels and 12 foot diameter front tires...

For that money I say go H22 with bore sleeve, turbo, head work and a evil tune and ull be set. Redlining at 13k will have the bike by its balls.

You're the who got his panties in a bunch because I said "Junior Marine" (Ooooh so derogative)! I don't hate on anything about the Marine Corps, I love the Marine Corps and HAD to get out after nine and a half years because of medical reasons. I'm (was) a grunt and I was great at my job. I never got bad pro's/con's or fit reps. Yes, I was unable to get promoted because I was on a med hold and I wasn't even allowed to go to the field anymore (there is nothing that kills morale more than being in the role of a POG)...
Owell, life happens and you take every dish as it comes... You just deal with that... You don't hate because of it.
There was nothing negative about saying "Junior Marine", you just got all bitchy and Double D'd me... Not cool at all... You double d me and yes I'm going to call you a piece of shit... It's life, get over it and stop using that phrase.
I still help out the Active Duty Marines at the local reserve center as much as I can. That's obviously not hating on them. Thank you very much...
Cursing on the internet...
Who the fuck cares! Honestly, who doesn't curse? It's just life, nothing about being tough. Fraternization... Yeah, I guess you can say that when you got your CO playing Madden with you... Hell, even as a LCpl (obviously a minor at the time), I was drinking with my CO, 1stSgt, XO, Gunny, etc... Owell, it's life... Like I said, I was a great Marine, well respected by senior Marines and got along with everyone except the turds... But that explains itself.
Let's see... When you were 15 yrs old, I was already a Marine, so yeah I'm going to say Junior Marine instinctively. Get over it. If you are actually a SNCO, good for you! Congratulations on moving up the ranks! I do give respect to those who deserve it, just don't double d me and expect me to be buddy buddy...
It's about time that you didn't just type everything in CAPS either, that shit is annoying to everyone, not just me.
Anyways, get off your power trip. This is the internet and it doesn't matter if someone says your a junior Marine who is going to waste his money... It's that simple. You're young and there was no disrespect meant by calling you one...
DEVIL DOG <-- Great phrase for what it means, derogative comment in any other way... You gotta agree with that, just think of when you were called it before...

Wow, I guess you're a brilliant one! You can't even figure out how to quote people on here yet...
Race who ever and where ever you want, I couldn't care less...
I have buried way to many Marines from car accidents to care about any more dying that way...
To many young and inexperienced drivers...
That has got to be the gayest quote I have ever heard... Lame...
Call me "boy" again and you will find yourself in a dark alley with a Columbian necktie...
Sounds to me like you're not even a Marine, just some fag who's brother or father is a Marine and you got some knowledge of them...
I'm done even reading your post, go change your tampon and stop trying to live in someone else's shoes...
