Don't 'get' stunting by either car or bike, but I'll admit his car control is above average :D

All going well till he hit the barrier as he turned on to the circuit.

Ken Block is awsome, anyone who Travis Pastrana thinks is awsome is king of awsome IMO.

By far the best thing I've ever seen a fiesta do, even more impressive that you can see from the tyre marks he's only maybe practiced once or twice max.

This is the reason why overall cars are better than bikes. :)

not sure if you've noticed but you're on a motorcycle forum? Thought it might be worth mentioning... ;)

He's not as good in the WRC though

Reeder

I am aware this is a motorcycle forum :) however in general I still believe cars are better overall.
As it stands though I cannot fund a 600bhp fiesta or drive any better than the average person, and therefore a motorbike is more fun for me. If I had a choice I'd rather be a rally driver than a superbike rider. It's just how I feel.

Don't get me wrong though, I do love my bike :D

I did also hear he wasn't as good in WRC.

Blasphemy!

I see where you're coming from in some of your posts that a superbike is a lot more accessible than a supercar and that's the main reason why many people buy bikes. But IMO bikes are also a hell of a lot more fun regardless of the price differences.

yeah tbh I'd love to have a go on an rs125 (haven't had chance yet) and a drz400 - neither of them particularly fast but I reckon both would have more character than almost any supercar you could throw at it (ariel atom excluded, but even then all you have to do is push pedals and turn a wheel... no body movement or other input like you get with bikes)

I'll clearly admit I haven't DP. But I personally would enjoy a very fast car more than a very fast bike.
I've driven a ferrari 360 round a track, admittedly not particularly fast, but it was a huge buzz. I've only ever ridden my SV and my training bikes and they're really good fun to the extent where I favour riding to driving my car by a long way, but to me personally it just isn't quite the same as being in something as fast and expensive/exclusive as what I would imagine being in a lamborghini or such would be like.
I think it's to do with knowing how inaccessable most exotic cars are.
Before anyone states there's stupidly expensive bikes, I am aware... but in general a performance bike is easier to come across than a proper performance car.

It's nothing more than an opinion - but clearly the wrong one for a bike forum :D

Even my old 560 racing supermoto made the SV feel like a twist and go scooter


I can't imagine how fruitloops a race prepped ZX10 or similar would feel

Fixed for you. Apples and apples my friend.... Not many places hire F1 cars, not many places hire MotoGP bikes.

Wanna lend me the £5k deposit so I can hire the lambo? oh... also the £700 for the day?
I'll pay you back in monthly installments of £5.

It good and straight to the point but I think it needed more venom. A few astericks just to get the point heard if you know what I mean.

Still lacking the explietives but the venom is definetly there. The personal nature of you both adding names into the post adds good depth to it.

Reeder

Allan you ****ing little ****!! If you ever dare say anything like that again I'm going rape your cat, **** your mum and then tell everyone you know that you fancy fat women!!!!!

Better?

10/10 thats perfect!
We've got names so its personal, we've got threats of rape which is a MASSIVE NO NO But then you add that his cat would be your target so it makes everything ok again. Mentioning a mother could always be left out but personally my favorite part is the finalie, it works on so many levels.

Reeder

I considered using his surname as well, but I decided against it.
Have you seen his mum? You wouldn't leave her out...
A little bit of fact goes a long way with the chubby chasing ;)
