an 05 R1 will be a tuff one to beat, also will have to take into account weather it is from a dig or a roll. from a dig you will have to have the cobra running into the low 10's if the rider can drive the bike.

from a roll you will need a good gear, traction and about 700rwhp. i think the new R1's are running into the very low 10's with the factory tires and exhaust.

now if you race a R6 then you could take hime with a KB 2.4 and alot of boost and you will beat him down from a roll, but a dig you will need good traction and a good drive of the car.

The R1 has seen high 9's with a pro driver and a tiny bit of suspension tweeking (free stuff.)
