With all of the Horsepowered FReepers out here, I thought this would be a natural.

Cheers,

Amazing! 230 kph on the bike's speedo = 138 mph.

Both are very skilled drivers.

That was great! Just once I'd like to have a car to outrun the police. And don't tell me you can't outrun radio because it's speed and brains. I'd see whose got more of which/both.

Holy Crap!

Awesome! The guy on the bike has some serious mad skillz!

I could have kept that up through about the first turn and lost my nerve. I could have done the Car for much of it but having done roundy-round before, even driving like that for 10 minutes is exhausting. These guys were doing that on the street, flat out NUTZ!

Wow! I've been in a car on the hwy that the speedo went to 140mph and the needle was past that and stopped on the backside of the zero pin (guessing about 160 or so) and that was interesting but I'll pass on the city street thing.

Some pretty close calls there and damned good driving on both vehicles.

NUTZ!

BMW had made some great short films at www.bmwfilms.com

It seem the films aren't available right now. They were about a month ago though...maybe a website redesign?
