After seeing a basically stock-appearing (with a stock exhaust) Busa hitting
156-159 trap speeds in the 1/4 (and this is with walking it out of the hole
on street tires), a turbo Busa cracking off runs like that seems easily
believable. Even when I bought my '79 1100 Yamaha many years ago, the former
owner said that "it does 50-90 in 0.0 (!!)", and he wasn't far from the
truth!! And today, 600cc bikes will clean my clock!!
When an old 95 HP or so bike like mine has pretty fierce acceleration, I
can't even imagine how strong some of the newer bikes run!!

I saw the speedo, but the surroundings did seem much like 100-180mph, that
long curve at 140 seems a bit unrealistic.
