Even though I'm not attanding the AFR, I'd love to see (somebody will hafta point a Vid Cam at it) a side by side Grudge Race (without the grudge) between Large & his lowered & stretched ex auctions writeoff ZX 12 R & Ozkat & his lowered & stretched ex auctions writeoff GSXR 1000.
It should be a pretty even run because -
Both are gentlemen of ... aah... larger carriage so no weight advantage/penalty,
Both setup for dragracing,
[u]Similar</u> power to weight of the bikes,
Both low budget builds,
Kawasaki vs Suzuki [^],
State Of Origin type vibe,
etc.
Now I know Shayne has a little more clutch dropping experience than Rich but the 12 will have more bottom end than the thou & Large has radically lightened the front by removing one disc & caliper but Oz's thing has a pointy tail & lots of stickers, but red bikes are faster but Oz is a proper Dragracer but Large owns a Spondon & etc... etc.

Best of 3 runs, I've got $100 on the Kwaka [:p]

Then they have a Wheelie competition...

Unfortunately i didn't get to run Shaynee. Had a few good races with Little Large, Ben and rexie tho.[8D]

I'm a bit pissed about the race when I beat Rexie, he got a time of 10.39 and my time didn't show. It woulda been my best time of the day[V]

What was your best time Richard?

Large

Better than 10.39 is all I know Shayne Best recorded time was a 10.4 or 5

Best race was when I was beating ben all the way until the last 20-30m and he came past about 100mph faster to take it on the line by a tenth.
