C)-was not a serious run since he didnt 60' that Gen2 Busa for cr*ap
D)-all of the above

An otherwise stock Gen2 Busa w full exhaust,tune&stock gearing w a skilled rider has gone 202mph at Maxton Mile. The FASTEST GTR to date at a standing mile has only gone 205mph. So what does that mean? A highly modded GTR eeks out 3mph more than a otherwise stock Busa. How bout a modded Busa? Forget it lol!!
The bike already has the extreme advantage. The fact that the GTR is even remotely hanging with the hayabusa is REALLY IMPRESSIVE. Everything you're saying may be true but still I'm very impressed that a car with widely available mods can do the standing mile 3 mph faster than a hayabusa.

Yes,its impressive to have a 800hp car hang w a stock Busa no doubt.

And,yes the highly modded GTR that ran 205 at the mile does indeed hold the record as being the fastest one around.

And yes,its 3mph faster then a bolt on Busa...but whats impressive to ME is the Busa that went 278mph at the very same venue..that'd be a measly 73mph faster in the standing mile then the 205mph GTR but whose counting
