Have any of you guys done the standing mile before on your zx10s? Anybody ever broke 200mph on one?
I was thinking about trying to get out and do a standing mile race either this year but will probably next year just because of wanting to be prepared and what not.
I'd be racing my gen4 zx10. For useful mods it currently has:
It currently has a stretch of about 11" on it but figure it would do better stock wheel base because it would't have to lug around as much chain. The swing arm is adjustable for as 8" over. Any thoughts on what would be the best setup to use?
Bike weighs in at 395 at the scales at Brainerd International Raceway, I would guess closer to 390 swb. I would be around 205 suited, maybe 195 if I really cut some weight.
Bike made 175.9 hp on 87 pump gas, 525 chain, 11" stretch. I would hope it would be low to mid 180s stock wheelbase on mr12.
Would that be good enough to hit that magically 200mph mark in the standing mile with the right gearing? Is there anything else I could try and do to guarantee that 200mph slip?
Thanks in advance for the replys :thumbsup:
