hey guys i am only 18 and imnot new to drag racing or anythingmy dad has been racing cars since before i could remember but i just started racing bikes i have only raced once and i am hooked ...the first time i even rode my bike i was at the strip its a 04 cbr 600rr with a few mods jardine rt one and a power commander 3..i ran like a 12.81 at 112mph yea not great but it was my first time even on a street bike...well i was just wondering if you guys could give me some tips on launching...thanks

 

damn you're slow. why don't you try learning how to ride first before you go drag racing a super sport.

 

aight dude its all in the first 60ft were you got to make your time count the rest of the trake is a breeze you got to get a good rt and you got to get a good 60ft time the key to cutting a light is to go on the last yellow i ran 9 time at the strip thursday and my worst reaction time was the first run and it was a .5 most of mine are around .01-.03, what was yours? your 60ft time was probley 2.3-2.5 right? you do to make the first 60ft really count

but you really should learn how to ride first

 

Thanks mikey i really appreciate you helping me i have alot more seat time in now im just waiting on racing season ive been riding in like 30 degree weather just to get some practice and yea thats around what my reaction was i just cant stand people like PTOWNPSI that run there mouth when im just asking for some help....thanks

 

AMS OIL SUCKS....

 

I suggestion would be try working with the clutch and make sure you do't dump it when it goes green because the 600 likes to stay in higher rpms. what kills your 60' times with 600. if it boggs any than you don't have the horsepower to get back in the hipher rpms. its good to see other hondas at the strip.I race 98 f3 with 6" extended arm and nos. I run in the 9.90's in the quarter.With my bike with stock wheel base was getting 1.78 to 1.80 60' times that were you probley need to be to run 11.30 to 11.50.I not sure with the fuel injection though.Getting that clutch work out will help you pick up a lot on your et and the 60'

 

thanks alot mhonda i was also looking at nitrous kits i found a dry system fo like a 188$ i thought thats was a prety good deal its like a 50 horsepower gain prety cheap horsepower if you ask me but i dont know alot about nitrous any suggetions....thanks guys

 

yeah I heard that the wet kits woork alot better but the dry kits are alot easier to install. the only problem i have ran into with spraying the 600's is my clutch it was hard to get it to handle the shot.I 'm not sure on the 600rr but if its a four spring clutch you might have to get stiffer springs or shims to put behind your springs.If you decide to get it ask somebody about the 50 shot or what jet would be safe.I could only put about a 40 shot on mine. which was 18/20 nos jets. I tried running 20/22 once but it burnt right through the clutch.I would try getting more seat time before going to nos.

 

yea i know i was just thinking ahead...thanks alot

 

60ft is where it's at. I stage around 9000rpm and twist the throttle wide open just before I release the clutch. The more seat time you get the better your "feel" for the clutch will get. I have to slide the clutch on this 07 rr almost to redline in first gear, lowering and strapping it helped a bunch. As the nos goes leave it alone. only try it when you have maxed out the performance of the stock bike, then your skills will be good enough to handle what nos will do to you.
