Was looking on the Minimoto website, and somone posted a time for taking their minimoto up the strip at Santa Pod.....in 16.8 seconds

 

see here...

 

 

Didnt I see someone here post a 300zx time of 13 seconds or so...

 

Do we think the little bike rider is telling porkies!! (at most the bike will be a 12hp Polini or similar)

Depends if it was Chunk or Duffer riding it at the time I guess :mac1: :slap: :tongue:

OK, and on that note, who is going to be the first with a photochop or either the Duffer or Chunk with just 2 minimoto wheels sticking outta their ar5e? PMSL

I heard you can buy a NOS kit for these! guess anythings possible, I know they race lawn mowers and some are looking for a 100mph record :shock:

yeah but no but yeah but no but.. can you imagine it being only 3 seconds slower than a 300hp ZX...

 

I dunno if I believe the gearing would allow it to do that either....

I've been on a few minimotos, and I'd be suprised to see it do well over a 1/4 mile drag!

 

If I were driving the Z, I'd turn round and run the bugger over!!... rotten git! LOL

A second is a big difference in the drag world though I'd say 16.8/ 17ish is more a fiesta xr2i quarter mile time! compair the xr2i against the Z

I'd say the little bike could have done 1a 6.8

 

There are loads of little bikes of all sorts and not all are Minimotos. Even if it was one, I guess it's possible. I think Japanese people have spent £10,000-£20,000 tuning them before.
