Any1 ever gotten beat by a street car?

Just wondering if anyone here has ever lined up against a car ON THE STREET and had their *** handed to them. Last year some guy in an early 90's DSM was right next to me on the freeway on ramp, closest ive ever been to being beat by a car.


just wondering. I know this is a stunt website but cars that keep up with bikes I have respect for.

What the hell is a DSM any way? I had a 10 second camaro that stayed with most bikes on the street (beat squids-but they don't count), the bikes would always pull away after the quarter-when I ran out of gear.

I only had one car try to keep up on the highway and it was a state trooper. Does that count?

I would never waste my time or money on one of those turds, but I did see a stock looking AWD talon beat a 12 second mustang (very impressive). That old mustang is still a better car for the buck though!

my freind got beat by a GT2 Porce. I dont know the top speen of a gixxer750, maybe around 170. Anyway he said the porce past him like he was standing still.

I dont mess around with top speed my piece is too crunchy and something might just fall off.

i have a friend when i was living in hawaii had a supra that toasted all the bikes he ever lined up against. it also had 650+ hp at the rear wheels.
plus cars are a lot more aerodymanic than motorcycles are.
if someone doesnt believe me i can do the math to prove it but it will take all day to type it.

One of my good friends is a Porsche/Lamborghini technician at an exotic car dealer. Hes smoked my bike in about 5 different cars ranging from 911 turbos to a 2003 Mulcielago. I beat a Panoz.

Not yet. But not a lot of fast cars up here in MN. We all ride snow mobiles.

Funny I read this post today. Me and a fre friends (sV, r1) were crusing on an pretty empty road, not racing, just for the hell of it. So they are in front of me, and I see a newer Lexus GS 400 w/ aftermarket exhaust and 18's fly by me! Im like wtf, I look at my speedo, and Im at 125mph

Didnt get beat, but surprising he wanted to go
