According to MCN there is a race between Steve Brogan on Jentin BMW and a Ariel Atom with a V8 busa engine on tonite's show, they even intimated that the bike wins , but we'll see!

Apparently the race bike beat the Atom by over 2 seconds. So the producer insisted that they use the s1000rr road bike, which looses by 0.8secs. That's from someone that was there.
