We’re on a quest to find the fastest streetbikes in America, and we want to give you a chance to claim this most prestigious title. Organized in conjunction with the East Coast Timing Association at the world-famous Maxton Monster Mile in Maxton, North Carolina on the weekend of Sept. 23-24, 2006 (rain date: Oct. 28-29), our Top Speed Shootout will pit bikes in six separate classes against each other to see who has the fastest bikes in America measured by top speed posted on Maxton’s standing start, one-mile course. Bikes will be eligible to race in six classes: 600cc all motor; 600cc plus one power adder (nitrous, turbo or supercharger); 1000cc all motor; 1000cc plus one power adder; unlimited cc all-motor; and unlimited cc plus one power adder. To encourage the hot-rodding spirit, rules will be virtually anything goes. The class displacements refer to the engine cases only—if you can get 800ccs out of a 600 motor and keep it together you’re eligible for the 600cc class. All bikes will need to conform to the ECTA safety rules, otherwise anything goes! In addition to the six classes outlined above, there will also be a target mph contest with an award going to the rider who breaks the timing beam closest to 150.000 mph, making virtually anyone with a sportbike able to get involved in this contest. Winners will each receive an “ECTA/Super Streetbike Fastest Streetbike in America†riding jacket and, of course, the undeniable bragging rights the go along with owning one of the indisputable fastest bikes in the country. See below to view the complete Top Speed Shootout rules and find out everything you need to know to get started building your bike up to win this event. We look forward to seeing you in Maxton next September!

The rider must use the handlebar (s) during the entire run. Fork stops must stop fork travel before the hands touch any other part of the motorcycle. If a hydraulic steering damper is used, the rod shaft (or piston) may not be used for the fork stops.
E. HEADLIGHT: Headlights, if used maybe no more then 7†in outside diameter at the “lens†surface with a front radius of not less then 18â€. The front surface must be perpendicular with the ground within 5 degrees with the rider in normal riding position. No more then 2 headlights maybe used. Glass headlight requires taping to retain breakage and the tape is limited to the glass lens.
F. MIRRORS: Must be removed unless integrated into the fairing.

H. BRAKES: A rear brake is required on all motorcycles. It is recommended that all motorcycles have front and rear brakes. A front and rear brake is required over 175 MPH on Motorcycles without parachutes and must be an internal expanding drum type or hydraulic actuated disc brake unless original equipment for that model. The failure of one brake shall not affect the operation of the other brake. Actuation may be from footrest or handlebar.
I. TIRE REQUIREMENTS: The minimum tire requirements will be governed by ECTA inspection officials as follows:
• Up to 125 MPH Standard production tires.
• 126 to 150 MPH V rated or better tires of standard road tread.
• 151 to 200 MPH Road racing branded tires or Z rated

M. FUEL: In fuel classes, any approved liquid fuel may be used. Approved fuels are Nitrous Oxide, Nitromethane, Alcohol, and non-approved Gasoline. Nitrous Oxide installations must provide crash protection for the shut off valve. Nitrous Oxide bottles and lines are considered a portion of the fuel system and governed by all fuel system requirements. Nitrous Oxide bottles shall be securely mounted.

Fluid catch cans must have sufficient capacity, and may be vented to the open air in the upper portion of the container. Motorcycles over 175 MPH are required to also safety wire, radiator drain plugs and any radiator hose fastenings. Catch cans for engine, transmission and radiators are encouraged.

Then in order to keep the spirit of street racing Super Streetbike has made a few rules to make sure the event stays in the spirit of street bikes.
1. All bikes must have a 2006 tag in your state and the tag must be on the bike for the entire meet. We will require you to present your registration paperwork.
2. The bike must have a working headlight and tail light.
3. The bike must be ridden by the registered owner from Rule #1. This means NO JOCKEYS.
4. All bikes must comply with MPS, APS, P/P or P/PS classes from the ECTA rule book. This basically means everything is allowed except streamliners.
If an item is not specifically covered above, we will defer to the ECTA rule book other than the differences in engine displacements which are below:
600cc Any engine displacement that can be obtained from a production set of engine cases and made for a bike that originally had under 600cc. For example a GSXR600 can be bored and or stroked as far as you are mechanically able and it will still be allowed to compete in the 600cc class. This also means that 750cc engines or 1000cc engines can not be installed into 600cc frames.The bikes frame must be from an original 600cc bike.
600cc-Power Adder - Same as above but ONE power adder will be allowed. Nitrous, turbo or supercharger. Only ONE.
1000cc Any engine displacement that can be obtained from a production set of engine cases and made for a bike that originally had under 1000cc. For example a ZX-10R can be bored and or stroked as far as you are mechanically able and it will still be allowed to compete in the 1000cc class. This also means that 1200cc engines or larger can not be installed into 1000cc frames. The bike’s frame must be from an original 1000cc bike.
1000cc Power Adder - Same as above, but ONE power adder will be allowed. Nitrous, turbo or supercharger. Only ONE.
Unlimited cc - Any production based motorcycle can be used with no limits on engine displacement.
Unlimited cc Power Adder - Same as above, but ONE power adder will be allowed. Nitrous, turbo or supercharger. Only ONE.
Classes:
SSB-600 Super Streetbike 600cc
SSB/P600 Super Streetbike 600cc with power adder
SSB-1000 Super Streetbike 1000cc
SSB/P1000 Super Streetbike 1000cc with power adder
SSB/U Super Streetbike Unlimited
SSB/PU Super Streetbike Unlimited with power adder
SSB/150 Super Streetbike 150MPH index class (closest to 150.0000 wins)

Then in order to keep the spirit of street racing Super Streetbike has made a few rules to make sure the event stays in the spirit of street bikes.
1. All bikes must have a 2006 tag in your state and the tag must be on the bike for the entire meet. We will require you to present your registration paperwork.
2. The bike must have a working headlight and tail light.
3. The bike must be ridden by the registered owner from Rule #1. This means NO JOCKEYS.
4. All bikes must comply with MPS, APS, P/P or P/PS classes from the ECTA rule book. This basically means everything is allowed except streamliners.
If an item is not specifically covered above, we will defer to the ECTA rule book other than the differences in engine displacements which are below:
600cc Any engine displacement that can be obtained from a production set of engine cases and made for a bike that originally had under 600cc. For example a GSXR600 can be bored and or stroked as far as you are mechanically able and it will still be allowed to compete in the 600cc class.

use a worm clamp or a k&n filter
i think the busa is pretty moch good to go for the most part , they just dont want sombodys oil filter blowin off 3/4 the way down the track it will ruin the days racin with oil all over the track not to mention if it does blow off at 1++ mph the first thing its goin to hit is your rear tire
it would be best if you were serious to contact sombody who has gone through it a few times , also check out thier web sites , and email back n forth any questions you might have well in advance
