Hey, I had the opportunity to slap the sh!t out of a Viper with some smug day-trader at the wheel.........he started the sh!t, but at the next light he just stared straight ahead and accelerated like he was driving an Olds Cierra.

Returning Visitors
If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.
If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Im not so much for the quick accelerations, but appreciate it.
I was riding the GS a week or so back and got behind an old school chevy nova. No clue what year but looked fully restored and had a growl to it just cruising around, you know that sound like its just waiting to really go. It also had a ss line coming out of the back, thinking nos.
Anyways we got to a straight away and the guy had some running room, all I heard was the engine roar and off he went. Seriously was gone so fast, only time I have seen that much acceleration was from the newer bikes.

Oh, I don't know about that. For a 2 liter light weight car they do alright.
At the 1/4 mile strip my Civic will run in the high 13s, over 100 mph, with just over a 2 second 60' time.
Not too shabby. I'm not sure how fast it'll go, but it's more than 162 mph.:twistedevil:
Very VERY few cars can come close to the acceleration of a bike. Even the vintage ones
True, but it really depends on how far you run.

I run high 10s in my TransAm, but Civics properly done can be acceptable.
And I would never back down from a car when I am on my totally stock GS1100E, but that's just me.
