was on the way home about 1215 and a r6 come onto the highway and pulls up besided to me and waves then points forward so i shift down to third he honked 3 times he pulled for about a car length then when he shifted i pulled ahead of him by a car and a half and held till 140 when he dropped back and continued to peg the speedo off 160 with 1500 left to go. then when i was getting off he pulled up besides me and gave me a thumbs up

r6 are only the 600's maybe yer mistaken with a R1 plus they arent good from higher mph i know from the line ill get destroyed plus it could have been a inexperienced driver.... win is a win though :)

PS i spilt my jack in the box soda on my lap nice ice cold root beer B@ll$

"it dont matter if you won by an inch or a mile" haha, i dont think the rider knew what he was doing tho....not to say your car doesnt fly, but bikes are in another league...

yeah he must have been very inexperienced a 750hp car cant hang with an r1

your talking 10 sec car going against a 8-9 sec bike

Good kill....You can bench race and magazine race all day long ,but when the rubber hits the road anything can happen.There are to many variables on the street,nerves,tires,driver mod.,etc.............

Good job VP,your car is no slouch...
