Good Vid

Don't even think about a bike engine, you already have the ultimate.
You'd blow him into the weeds as you'll have over twice the power of that one.

Notice he has to keep it reving high as the torque is quite low with the bike engine.

I bet he gets through clutches quickly too.

Can't beat car engine stuff, especially turbo'd IMO

i find this video a bit strange
there were some fast cars that he overtook there not to mention fast bikes but it went past like they were standing still for instance the silver porker would have eaten it up the straights , if that thing only had 180bhp i,l eat the dog poo outa the local doggy bin's

Is it the black carbon fibre Megabussa powered Westfield with the really low screen (I can't see as I'm still downloading the other Ring video )? If so, we pissed past that four-up in my car (when it was only 400bhp), with Gareth Lloyd driving . I poo'd myself, as the Westfield driver obviously didn't think anything out there was faster and wasn't using his mirrors , but it looked like he had pulled over, so we went to overtake him and he then pulled back over when we we along side him . Two wheels on the grass, cheeks-a-clenching and then then when we were along side, the Westfield's passenger saw us out of the corner of his eye and elbowed the driver to take evasive action . We all breathed a collective sigh of relief I can tell thee (although I would have been willing to take Gareth's F40 in leu had I survived a coming together ).

180bhp but probably weighs 500kg

whats a porker weigh? probably 1200kg at least?

so busa works out to 360bhp/ton

lets say a porker of 350bhp... would work out at 290bhp/ton


thats how its killing them down the straights, and as for the corners the normal cars and bikes wouldnt stand a chance unless the cars were running slicks and trick susspension
