very fast! the tv does'nt do them justice.

those 500 2 strokes were ridiculous.. knackered if it seized on you tho :)

Channel 5 now...

there was a race on 5th gear between a race boat, a bike and an f1 car.. the bike came 1st once, the car twice. the boat lost on all times.

You just wouldn't get to do that now... Maybe in a straight line like the bike car boat one but round a track never... My god health and safety would go mental...

was that michael rutter on the HRC fireblade?

It was indeed! He did really well - although i think it was a repeat of last nights show.

In response to cerlesschucca (sp), as to the comment of they would not be allowed 3 vehicles to race the same track at the same time due to health and safetly..

WRONG!

Dammmmm we need a modern day version of that.

Look at Leguna Seca, nothing to it there :lol: Reminds me of Brands Hatch in the 80's Vs now..

Excellent! Much better than the top gear "anti bike" porsche vs gsx-100r "experiment" (*cough*propaganda*cough*) a few months back.

WOW - They were both really good, I've not seen either of those before!
That second race with the Maranello (...is it?) and the F1 car is sooooooooo close!!!!!
Didn't think he was going to make it!

...
 

Mmmmm, wonder if it would have been any different if Channel 5 had used a GP bike rather than a BSB bike against the F1.

GP Bikes are supposed to be a good few seconds a lap quicker on a track, how about a straight line shoot out?.
:?

We should have a BSB vs BTCC Vs WSB vs GT vs MOTOGP vs F1 ...all on one grid!
:wink:


THAT WOULD BE A RACE
