He is right.... <more inside>
My stage 3 car was pretty damn fast (12.2@118) and I raced my friends completely stock Honda CBR600RR after it was broken in, and while he is a very good rider (used to race dirtbikes on a series) if we would do anything under 75mph roll i would get instantly jumped on 6 cars or so. This was me on racegas @ 25psi (stronger than my 12.2 run).

Its actually believable.. (more inside)
I was thinking about what you guys said, and did a quick google and found "2003 Yamaha YZF R6 runs 11.650 @ 124.700 MPH in the 1/4 mile "
Considering I will trap 120 in the 1/4 and an S4 is MUCH BETTER geared for top end then a 600cc bike, which is when I pulled. Like I said, low end it destroys me.
I actually dont know the year of the R6 I raced, but I think the newer R6's are in the 10's now @ I dont know what trap speed.. So maybe it was an 03? IDK..

Oh, and I'm not discounting your run with the bike. I just think that the biker should maybe
practice more. I still applaud your run, cuz heck, it's tough to beat something that ways less than 700lbs total and have 120hp at the wheels

Looks like it does 60-100 in around 8.5s, which is about the same as a stock Elise (ie, slow)
In other words, it's pretty slow - much slower than a Stage3 S4.
Compare that with a 1 liter bike like the CBR1000RR which does 60-100 in 5.3.
