Cobra kill, do bikes count? :)

Heh, posted a few kills here using the Camaro, but now I got a bike so I thought I'd post those here too

I'm on my 05 ninja 636 and its about 1 in the morning. I pull up to a set of stop lights. After the light its all open highway. A Mustang Cobra pulls up right beside me, we both look at eachother and smile and nod.

Not sure what he had for mods, he definitely had some beefier tires and an aftermarket exhaust.
Light turns green, he launches pretty good and I ruin my launch almost almost stalling the bike. But that's okay, at about 45km/h I rip by him and then begin to pull about 2 blocks on the cobra as he becomes a speck in the mirrors.

Honestly the most enjoyable drag race ever, I have never been in a vehicle fast enough to make a cobra seem like a Tercel.

I've had only one car actually try to race me on my R6. It was an SRT magnum. He was obliterated.

600+hp on a car is what is needed usually to stay with a bike. You would need upwards of 800rwhp to stay with a liter bike most times.

They sure as hell are fast, although I do mess with the local Harley riders as that is fair game and they lose alot.
