Well, tonight I was giving my buddies, and my wife a ride in the pt for the first time, and I was showing them how much power it had, so I pulled up to a light, and was just gonna show them how it went off the line. Up pulls a Kawasaki Ninja....uh oh.

Well....I took off like a bat outta hell, and beat the ninja off the line (but he wasn't expecting it).

We pull up to the next light (with my 2 buddies in the back on average 190 lbs), and my wife in front (120 lbs). He's ready now....

We launch from the light, and ...

I couldn't believe it, but I took him all the way through 3rd gear, and then he pulled away.

I'm not sure, but I think the Ninja was either a 500 or 600 cc model, I don't know too much about bikes, but I can't believe it was a higher end ninja.

I was surprised! I lost the race, but in my eyes, it was a huge victory. I figured that I had no shot in the first place with all of the weight, and going against a motorcycle.

wow.
