well down here in Miami there was a race between a 400hp busa vs a 1000some hp supra and the supra after 5th just left him scratching his a$$ and head now about a 600 hp busa damn...

I seriously doubt that man. It takes a 900rwhp Viper to keep up with a stock Busa. 400whp on a 480-550lb bike VS a car with around say 1200rwhp that weighs what? Like 3400-3700lbs. Supra would get smoked. I've seen all the Busa vids etc man and I haven't actually seen them lose unless they had a bad driver or real bad traction problems.

Your comparing two completely different beasts, and from a roll the Supra or car in general takes the advantage? Why? Well you claim weight on your arguement. At speeds of 60+ mph the momentum that the initial acceleration of 3600-3700 pounds has already been overcome and on its way moving. So at this point power comes into play, and power is going to rocket the car forward more then the bike because there is SOOO much more there. A bike makes its speed in the first half of the quarter mile, because it doesnt have much inertia to overcome, simply a few hundred pounds which 400 horsepower has NO problem with accelerating VERY quickly. But at higher speeds aerodynamics, gearing, and power factor in MUCH more then with a 1/4 mile race. So at a roll the bike actually holds the disadvantage IF the cars suspension and tires allow it to gain traction. With the Busa creating more drag then the Supra it will eventually hurt itself and the Supra will pass. On the Viper comparison, Vipers are not as aerodynamic as you might be inclined to think, atleast not in the way of a top speed run. Now if the Busa is creating even MORE power, well it wont play in as much but it still plays in. Might need a 14-71 on a big block to keep up eventually.
