No kidding... With a good rider that thing can do 0-60 in about 3 seconds and the quarter mile in about 11...

Course if you put me on one of them, I wouldn't be pushing it and I'd probably let cars win

Where you in a RX-7 or a McLauren F1, or did the shop do a switcharoo and swapped the Skyline's inline 6 with an inline 4?

No the guy knew how to ride it alright, first he thought it was a joke, he didnt seriously think we were gonna race him, but when he took off, and we cought up to him and passed him while he was totally leaning forward (hammering the bike) i'm sure he got a surprise. And by the way i dont think he just got it out of the shop because you dont start of riding your new bike at around 140mph.
And anyway we raced him firther down the higway again and the same thing happened........... My friends skyline tops out around 170mph+ and theoretically should do the 1/4 mile in mid 11's. (the mechanic who built it said he's done this sorta skyline before and got these figures with a little less horses)
I'm sure that 0-60 the bike would no doubt pull
