Default (Turbo/Supercharged?) Intercooled S2000 vs Honda CBR F4i??

This guy with an F4i says he raced a S2000 that was supposedly intercooled. Anyone here?

If the guy is from SoCal, it sounds like Team Hybrid. Ask him if the car was black.

1/4 a bike will do great, but most 600cc bikes will run out of steam towards the top. my friend with an R1 used to get his azz kicked by a supra when we got on the highways (he walked me more, i had a zx7r).

No, the s2000 wasn't intercooled, turbocharged, or supercharged. CBRs are just that slow!!!!!!

The R6 and GSX-R (600) are a bit (I mean VERY slightly) faster than the F4i.

and btw, according to magazines the f4i is 2nd next to the gox-6 with the r6 in 3rd and of course the kawa last. but thats just the mag. but like i said its a drivers race...those times are like .0x away. so who the hell cares...personal preference should chose the bike.

i am biased towards honda. i wont buy anything else...but i will say there is better and will give credit to other companies where it is deserved.
