Hey Guys found this over at streetfire thought it showed nicely just how bloody fast stock/modded Busa’s are.

It was having troubles loading and I didn't feel like waiting. lol. Sorry. I couldn't take watching take the different angles of the same race. I will watch the other now. In the first one, I reckon the stock could have done the job with a slip on and maybe a few more hairs where it counts. A wider road where you know the car won't hit you from behind. There was a huge difference in braking distance. I'm thinking many comments will come from this video. Of course, I have nothing better to do than whinge, watching ebay for the Sunday bargains. ha.

Did those guys ride a bit like pussies? It would seem more relevant (maybe) if it was from a stop and they actually used the full 3 miles. It was a quick car (no doubt) but there was nothing special about the Busas. I don't think they even got into sixth. I think most of the guys here would have mopped the floor with him. I am pretty one eyed though when they race some flat out race car against any stock bike in conditions that suit the opposition. Like when they do that crap with various fighters and MotoGP bikes. Totally different categories of machine.
Did you look at the second vid with the modded bikes? They destroyed the Viper and really I think the stock Busa did a good job at keeping a 900hp at the rear wheel car honest.
