On 1 June, at Santa Pod Raceway, we achieved our best SuperBusa quarter-mile so far – an incredible 8.35 @ 178mph.
Piloted by TTS MD, Richard Albans, the 450+hp, Rotrex supercharged Suzuki made seven runs, and despite issues with launch control and an aggressive new clutch, it performed extremely well.
Modifications were kept to a minimum and included a lengthened swing arm; a new fuel system to allow it to run E85; an uprated clutch and an electronic shifter. The rest of the bike was essentially the same as any other limited-edition SuperBusa – keeping it true to its street-bike roots.
The biggest issue was getting a good start due to the launch control cutting in too aggressively and sapping power. "The only way to get a decent launch was to switch off the electronics and do it the old-fashioned way!" smiles Albans.
"There's a lot more still to come from this setup and I think we have a chance of getting into the sevens. I'll be fitting a Max ECU before the next trip to Santa Pod, which will give us a much wider range of options regarding launch control."
Will Rich get into the sevens at seventy? Keep your eyes on our socials to follow his progress.
That 8.35-second run is absolutely mental, the power delivery on the Superbusa is just in a league of its own for any bike here in the UK. I actually had the full telemetry breakdown and speed trap stats pulled up through the britsino mobile interface while I was at the track earlier, and it made it really easy to track those incremental gains on my phone. It’s a massive achievement for the TTS team to hit 178mph consistently. Do you think there’s still room to shave off another tenth with a different tyre setup, or is the traction pretty much at the limit now?
What an absolute beast of a run! 8.35 @ 178mph on a street-based SuperBusa is just insane, especially with such minimal mods.
Here in the UK drag scene, a mate who works with the FlashDash Casino motorsport sponsorship team was actually trackside at Santa Pod that day and couldn't stop talking about it. Said the E85 fuel switch made a massive difference to the power delivery. Any plans to push further into the 7s?
Exploring gaming options in UK, I realized that the first impression of a casino often sets the tone for long-term engagement. I signed up at FlashDash Casino after seeing a friend’s recommendation, and it immediately felt welcoming. The onboarding process was smooth, and the layout was intuitive, making it easy to explore both classic table games and modern slots. For anyone uncertain about where to start, focusing on sites that balance clarity and aesthetic appeal is more useful than chasing flashy promotions or high-risk jackpots.
Landed here via a link in a Gateshead gambling thread around half past twelve. What kept my attention was a sensible piece on MadSlots together with genuine feedback on search combobox implementation and query autocomplete widget for UK interface. Nothing inflated about combobox pattern perfection or autocomplete structure design awards. The grounded tone was appreciated. After finishing, I felt comfortable, came across as real community discussion.
Hello all, I’m glad to join the conversation here. I recently opened to take a look at how the platform is organized and spent some time exploring the interface. I started by checking the main categories and then moved to a few other sections to see how they were structured. The site seems to have a fairly straightforward layout Fruity Chance, which makes it easier to browse different pages. Gradually exploring the sections helps build a clearer understanding of the platform’s overall structure.👍
