Took out a new CBR600

This was sweet. My girlfriend and I took my car out this past Saturday because the weather was really nice. Well the bike got next to me in traffic and paced me. He had a girl on the back.

I crack the bottle open and slip into 2nd. He hits it immidiately and does a mild wheelie with me right next to him. I wind out 2nd, pulling slightly, powershift 3rd and keep pulling. I shut down in the top of 3rd with probably 2 cars on him.

We ran again with the same outcome. I told him too bad he had the passenger! She was a pretty tiny girl, but it does not take much extra weight to slow a bike down. He also said he ran 11.4 on the bike, so I know he can ride pretty good.

I think the new CBR's are called f4's? I don't know if I would have beat him without the passenger, but I have beat a handful of 600's before.
