Re: It's embarassing when...

Good kill. It would take a well tuned car to even touch your bike.


I just went to the illegal races this week, and saw a 1032whp Porsche 911 Turbo. Apparently he's considered the top dog in Southern California. Problem with that is that he couldn't find anyone to race him. Go figure that he was a lawyer.

Re: It's embarassing when...

Honestly speaking, is there any point even trying to compare a bike with a car... There is a world of a difference in the physics, dynamics, yadda yadda yadda, on how they both operate... Its not practical to compare a car with a bike.

Considering the increasing number of cars being built that can put the hurt on a bike...yeah, its perfectly practical.

Not to take anything away from the stig, cause beating up on turbo porsches is always fun But a bike beating a car is no big deal, that's how it should happen 99% of the time. But when a car can beat a bike, that's impressive.

Indeed! Bikes are just plain quick, but when a car can compete and come out on top... that's when things go from sweet to awesome.

thats where the ariel atom comes into the picture, I saw it on top gear and it totally took on a CBR 600, tho I doubt it would hold up as well against a liter bike...
