Looks like your the crack smoker. A crack smoker that hasn't ridden a sportbike built in the last 20 years. You'll need some very serious power to run with a stock $10k motorcycle.

I have no fear of racing a hayabusa. They really are a joke. I think that a nicely tuned 951 will pull one hard, especially if you go from a stop. Once the turbo spools up, its all over. Have you guys felt how hard a 951 pulls when its on some serious boost? Those riders are too scared to launch like a 951 can. It comes down to you only have to beat them off the line and to 100mph. After that they will chicken out and you have won. So really if they can't pull on you from 30-100mph you will kill them. And that is just where the 951 turbo kicks in....

That is the most uninformed statement I have ever read here. Sure the aerodynamics of bikes suck. You need to add 100mph to that "wall".

Yes - Dana is joking around. He has a Hayabusa (that's the correct spelling, bitches)
We raced last year - I crushed him.

I'm not sure if you're joking or not, but since you have all of 1 post, I'm guessing that you are not joking and actually expect us to believe this.

you did not race anything up to 210. period.

You did 210mph on a bike, really? I don't know to many people that have cracked the 200mph mark - kudos to you. The most I've ever did in a full position was 190mph, and that was incredible. Thank God for steering stabilizers too. Now, I've done 200+ on the banks of Daytona @ the Rolex 24hr in a GTP Lights car, and that was absolutely exhilirating - but par for the course to be in the front pack. Anyway, I'd love to see that video too.

I am serious. I don't know why people think otherwise.

1st, I am not kidding, 2nd I wasn't racing him in another bike I was driving my 1280hp street legal TT Supra, 2JZ-GTE. I am not a Porsche owner they are too slow for me. I have seen Joe Cevantez aka Dfastest in Las vegas his car is wickedly slow. I am imaging that ST's , Rolex, etc. are in the same league.

Dana, is one of the best bike riders in Colorado but his busa doesn't even come close to the one I raced back in hawaii. I don't know what is the problem with you guys why are you always comparing your cars to motorcycles is it because you guys feel insecure?

I have been checking this forum for a long time and I always see the same pattern, its like a pissing contest between St and Rolexnj, grow up kids, grow up.

MAFA is a joke. It's an alter ego for a Rennlister...... (I'm thinking Randy V but don't have the proof yet )
