Might beat him in a drag race... but the guy on the ZR would have to wait for you to catch up in the woods, even AFTER he stops to take a leak AND eat a snack AND maybe even after reading a short novel...

I have to disagree. I've had two ZR's and two two ZRT's. The weight difference is minimal, especially in the 600 class. With 800's, you might have a point but IMHO that would only be over whoops.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I'll add this too, a friend of mine has a 600ZRT and we were trail racing and he had no trouble keeping up with me.
We got out on to a road and opened them up and I got the lead, but at the mile mark, he started creeping up on me. If the run had been much longer, he could have eventually passed me.
