Continuing with our 2004 Middleweight Smackdown, we segued from the dyno room to Los Angeles County Raceway to perform quarter-mile and roll-on testing. Here are the results, as well as some multimedia tidbits from our track day at the Streets of Willow.

Look for a full test of the GSX-R600 in the current issue, on sale now. Our next issue will have the full middleweight shootout.
