building a bike cant really be that cheap can it?


It is.

Most expensive part of the bike is going to be the wide tire, new swingarm, and rerouting the exhaust for the turbo. Nothing else changes. It'd probably be cheaper than 30K if you went for a used swingarm and a cheaper rim (not all chromed out and shit).


Have you looked into Larry Larsons Nova? Thats a quick little street ride (6.93@211). Not sure how'd it do on highway pulls, but I bet it would tear the track up

put your original interior in there or leather and i bet this would do it and be that... "comfy" u so desire and i heard u say street pulls.... after the first 60 feet awd becomes less needed. u could def have a rwd that could compete on highway pulls with the ugr lambos.

like im said im pretty familar with larsons car it is easily a beast, but adding all of that weight into his rocket would slow him down a bit + running that gear and those tires on the highway with that suspension would be such a rough ride lol

lol, well there are technically alot of street cars faster then the lambos lol. but thats just because of insureance and plates lol and i think a full on drag car like larsons would run out of gear before the lambos did. anyone by chance know the gear ratio in them?

gears can be changed man. im not saying slap an interior and go by any means. im very aware that they would have to give it a few more adjustments.

the novas or hell even an old 70s camaro could do it. they are light as fuck compared to everything else in their time period. throw an lsx in there with some boost and some 3.73s and you're good id put money on it.

that has been done before with some really high powered vettes the problem ends up being traction with so much power on radials, on the highway not even a track
