That would be great. Maybe even meeting in the middle sometime...uh, dang... That is pretty awesome dude! I gotta come up there next Spring/Summer and see what that looks like next to a NA busa.
And, I can bring the video camera to show the others...

Whoops if I said 298 in the Torque. That would be wrong. 198 torque which is still extreme.Holy crap, did you say 298 ft/lbs of torque? That is insane, triple stock numbers. The 315HP is impressive enough but geez, how can the drivetrain handle that much torque?
Stretched Hummer.>>I passed a car from 70mph and in one car lenght I was doing 146mph.
Hey?
If the car was 15 feet long, that's pulling an impossible 7.67 G
Was it a s-t-r-e-t-c-h-e-d limo?
that explains it!Stretched Hummer.>>I passed a car from 70mph and in one car lenght I was doing 146mph.

OK OK cut me some slack here in over stating a bit. The point was when i looked at the speedometer after passing i hit 150mph quicker then i ever did on the bike. Yes i would guess that the best time for 200mph would be now about 8/10's of a mile. Thanks for the accurate calculations.After hearing Steve K's response, I did a little calculating of my own... I was a rocket scientist in my previous life...
NE started at 70mph, next to a car. Lets assume that the car is very long, 20 feet long. He then accelerated (lets assume at a constant acceleration for simplicities sake) up to 146mph. Therefore his average speed was ((70 + 146)/2 = 216/2 =) 108 mph. His relative average speed then is (108 - 70 =) 38 mph. At 38mph (38(miles/hour) * 5280(feet/mile) = 200640(feet/hour) = 200640(feet/hour) / (3600sec./hour) = 55.7 feet/sec.), he would travel the length of the car (20 feet) in (20 feet / 55.7 feet/sec = .359 seconds). So Ninja Eater is saying that he can accelerate from 70 to 146 in just over a 1/3 of a second! At that rate, he could accelerate from 0 to 228 mph ( = 335 feet/second) in one second. That is over 10 Gs (1G = 32 feet/sec/sec).
Don't get me wrong, 330HP on a 550lbs bike is insane, and much faster than anything I've ever seen, but this example may be a hair embellished.

Actually if Oracle did his math based on change in speed and we assume that the car is not accelerating then his math is correct. Because the car is the origin of a stable coordinate system relative to the starting point of the bikes acceleration.OK OK cut me some slack here in over stating a bit.

Basically, what I'm saying is that because they were traveling at the same initial velocity the speed of the car does not matter so long as it's velocity remains the same.
