600s are no fun. You gotta jump to the big boy bikes for some real fun:

Once they're modified though look out!

Mine was pretty terrible too because the girl dropped her hands so fast that I wasn't even up on the 2-step yet. Launching off pretty much idle in a turbo car is never a good strategy. The guy did go a 10.3 @ 137 in a bone stock '07 (I think that was the year) Busa so he wasn't that bad of a rider.

I can hear it Mr. Jokes. A proper launch on a bike is slipping the clutch out between 8-12k...that bike never crossed 4k during the launch. The bike should have been way out in front, at least for the beginning. A stock 600cc bike is capable of a 1.7-1.9 60'.

All I hear is Sean's car and the cars behind them in the burnout box. You got good ears.
