This might be a repost but its the first time I saw it. Just wanted to share.

The 911 beats the R1 on the track. I guess bikes arn’t as fast as I thought they are. The r1 killed the staight aways but sucked at turns.

you suck… you can’t see it so how do you have an opinion on it? that guy on the bike can ride… otherwise they wouldn’t of used him in the film… also i think that porsche could take a z06… that porsche is made for a road course… it rips and beat a bike…

quit defending shit that people don’t care about… this post wasn’t to look down on bikes… it’s just to show a pissed porsche ripping up a road coarse and beating a bike.

you’re the biggest domestic rice boy i’ve ever seen…

the R1 rider is a 3 time world superbike champ and the 911 driver is a BTCC driver with no chapionships on his belt.

i think that the bikes power to weight ratio makes them really fast on the straight aways but the car having 4 contact points to the ground as opposed to the bike only having two makes the car faster on a road track.

negative…w/o a properly tuned suspension that 911 would have gotten its ass handed to it by that bike easily

you are ignorant… thats the biggest problem… but the rice boy comment stems from the idea that you defend whatever you own and are simple minded.
