99 Z28 vs GXR and crew

So I was driving home not real fast but average. And I turned right onto this street. I look in my rearview and notice some motorcycles HAULING *** down the street behind me. So I pop it into second and I nearly redline all my gears and they never pass me! I know they were trying because they stayed along behind me. A couple blocks go by and I am at a red light. A guy on a GXR blue one pulls up next to me. "Wow dude that thing is fast, what have you done to it?". I tell him nothing and asked him if he was doing full throttle. I proceed to tell him he coulda probably taken me. The GXR looked like this!

I dont know what year or nothing. I dont know **** about bikes. There was 3 bikes total. If the road wasnt bumpy and I turned off traction control I woulda done a lot better.

GSXR

What have you done to your car? You should be in the 5-600 hp range to beat a 600 and WELL over that for liter bike.

My car is stock. I never thought I'd take them like I did.

Yeah, not to rain on your parade or anything... but if he could ride even 1/2 way decent you would have been MULTIPLE buslengths behind.

The picture you show is a NEW GSXR600. They will run the 1/4 in the 10s stock with a VERY skilled rider. And they will trap in the high 120s if not 130s.

A great rider got a 10.7@124 with my 8 year old R6... not MINE, but one identical to it.

Ugh I knew this would turn out how it did. The bike looked like the one I posted. I have NO clue if thats what it was. I am pretty sure I saw GSXR on it though. He said he wasnt full throttling. I told him he could of passed me. I'm sure he could of too. I'm just saying in this intense situation for me it was awesome to stay ahead of those motorcycles which were trying to go fast atleast.
