What goes 0 - 200kph - 0 in 13.7 seconds?

Max Biaggi's YZR500.
0-200kph in 7.0 seconds
200kph-0 in 6.7 seconds

can you imagine the ferocious acceleration and amazing braking? i wonder what the numbers are for Rossi's NSR?

So a stock Suzuki Hayabusa is almost as fast on acceleration?

0 to 200kph in 7.0 seconds... thats 124mph

A Hayabusa does 114 in 6.5 seconds
........... and 141 in 10 seconds

Here is a time slip from a dead stock Busa on a good launch in good air.



So that extrapolates out to about? 119 mph in 7 seconds
Not too far off the .... 124 in 7 seconds of the 500 GP bike

And that is meeting EPA noise and pollution standards.
That shows how awesome streetbikes are nowadays.

actually for the first 50-100 feet, the hayabusa is probably quicker, but the YZR would and does make mincemeat of it thereafter. my guess is that the YZR would do 175mph at the end of a 1/4 mile

What?.... He was seeing 'red' huh? ...

What is going on here?
It takes 30 seconds for the page to load just to make a response.
Why do I want to wait for that?

How is a .475 light a red light on a heads up race? Are they running the pro tree?

Hmmmm... good question...

I made 20 runs at the strip about a month ago and I have the slips right here... I had one redlight (reaction was .457)... my competitors redlighted 3 times... and it looks like anything under a .50 reaction is called a 'foul' (redlight).

We were just time trialing.

I am thinking that it shows the rider left before the last yellow went out and before the green went on ??

But then why would it still take ".475" sec to trip something else...?

Hmmmm... there are 2 'staging' lights... if you roll too far forward you lose the back one... if you go too far back you lose the front one...

So... maybe the back one going out before the green one turns on is the red light... and the 'reaction time' is the time between the green light that never had a chance to go on and the front staging light to go out?

... my best guess.

I have been wondering about all these little details for a while.
I bet there is a dragrace 'light and clock guide' somewhere (on the net even?).
