BMW RR 1000 S vs. C-14 with blower
« on: June 03, 2011, 02:30:48 PM »
Just added a BMW 1000 to the stable and thought ya'll would like to hear that the big C-14 mothership will absolutely annihilate the Beemer when accelerating!

Not even close!

I have to say that more than surprises me.  The RR is about 20 mph faster in the 1/4 mile.  It takes a lot of hp to make up that kind of difference.  Makes me really want a turbo on my Concours.  Thanks for the info.

Nice!

Do you have info on your turbo build? 

Might be worth pulling the S/C off my S2000 to fund a C14 turbo project!  ;D

  • It's only really cold if you fall down in it.
    • C-14 farkles you almost cannot ride without.

That is impressive. I assume the BMW will come out of the hole faster though, physics and all. There is a U-tube video of an RR 1000 doing a 1/4 mile in something like 8.5 seconds if I remember correctly. Between the fast shifting and the traction control I guess it takes all the skill out of drag racing....  :D
