Ok, I am cruising around on my bike on a Saturday night. Then out of the blue a weird looking car zooms by. I was on my way home, but I had to race it. I pulled up next to it at a light but wasn't quite ready. It took off, and it was gone. Now I am an ok driver but not experienced at drag racing bikes. I have not been beaten by any car as of yet until tonight. The bike was suppose to win, but I lost the race. My bike is 10.5 sec with an experienced drag racer. 2007 cbr 600. Now look at the car I lost to. The video also shows it racing a cbr 600, how ironic. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WaWoo82zNUA The car is somewhere in the North Sacramento area. There is one on ebay if interested. Tell me what you think. By the way it is a 4 cylinder Honda motor. [ May 11, 2008, 03:10 AM: Message edited by: 95GTConvtACE ]

the bike looked like it was half-assing it though...
I saw an atom twice in one day up in citrus heights, guy was cruising around with his kid. if I had the $$ I would definitely get one
and you can get it in the states with either the supercharged honda type-r engine or a gm ecotec. a company called wrightspeed modified one with an electric motor, it beat the shit out of a porsche and a ferrari on a 1/4 strip. there's a vid of that on youtube as well

I think the guy lives in Folsom, I've seem him around several times. There is also another car out here that a guy calls it his tubular rod. He has a toyota 4 banger in it. I looks kind of like a Rat Rod but with tubes instead of panels.

After reviewing the pic no. It was the same car though. I must have caught him on the way back home going the other direction. I raced him at the Don Julio and Antelope intersection. Definitely that same car though. I remember that license plate. I am glad I didn't catch him at that light, I would have crashed around that big bend trying to beat him.lol.
