I'm just starting to recover from the flu from hell and I did get this idea while my brain was simmering in my 101F. blood so I guess that explains it.
Anyhow while I was checking out the labusas site the picture of all the busas parked together got me thinking. You get 5 or 6 stock Hayabusas together and their respective psycho nut case riders. You would have to be a psycho nut case to try this. Go out to the desert to a long stretch of road, line em up single file and wind out every gear all the while having them stay 6 inches apart front to back. Then as the 950 horsepower Hayabusa freight train roars past the radar gun, POOF,
200+MPH. What do you guys think? Is this stupid or what? It makes me laugh just thinking about it but theoretically I think it would work.
Anybody watch bike (as in bicycle) racing? One racer out on the road by himself can maybe hit 38-40mph max. Cutting through the air all by himself makes it too hard to go any faster. But when he teams up with a group of other guys and they start slipstreaming with each other it makes it easy on everyone to go 45-50mph. Thats a pickup of 15-25% speed with no extra power needed.
I know no one would ever try this but it sure would be awesome to see. Sort of reminds me of the SpeedRacer episode with the mammoth truck, just like a freight train on the road, lights flashing, horns blasting, crushing everything in its path hahahahaah I'm really getting delirious now. Guess its time to put the icebag back on my head and cool my fried brain before I kill the few remaining cells that still work.
