Its easy to see, once the bike jumped out in front, the G pulled it back in easy. If the G had another 400 WHP like the Stage 3 Race version has, it would have destroyed the bike. Tim's Green car is a mild build for today's TT Gallardo standards

Dont get me wrong...that street car was reeling him in pretty fast.
I would be laughing my *** of if I was the owner of the G! Nice job!

If my Aunt had ***** she would be.....ahhhh never mind. 
Yes, technically the bike did beat the G, but it was clear the car was pulling the bike. I hear another race is in the works...so stay tuned.

From a roll, I don't think the GT-Rs are at that point yet. Currently too much of a HP disparity.

I know what you mean.
They (TTG) are very strong at the upper end.
I do think that from a fully built, traction perspective, it will take an AWD car of some sort to keep up.
Any rwd car in that HP league will have serious traction issues, IMO, just to get out strong enough to keep up.

There are 500, 600, 700+ Turbo bikes also...
Looking forward to Jamie and him racing, maybe they can get several runs in...

The video where the Busa got beat by cornfields the first run and then the 2nd run it got a couple car lead and was getting reeled in like a bluegill.
Props to the bike, its obviously fast but I don't think it has a chance in hell of beating Ohios SL.

Maybe you should measure a corn field(s). The car brake boosted and took the hit, it's not like they took off at the same time and the car walked away....
The agreed race was a 60-200 run, he wasn't geared for much more. Funny how the bike lets off and he's getting realed in....then again the car STILL lost either way...
Maybe you are right, Jamies car makes more power so it will be fun to see.
No big deal it's all in fun but completely disregarding all aspects of the runs is silly.
As UGR put it, Roberts bike is just a mild build also so there are MUCH faster street bikes out there...

Second race, bike went on the 3rd honk (from the car) and let up at the agreed speed. Reeling him and the bike letting up are pretty close....regardless...
It was fun and close and they need to go again until the car is out of gear. Is Tim geared for 250mph? Maybe they should do a couple dig races also?

Nice race...even on the pull where the bike got the jump car was still pulling on him.
qoute from the guy who was riding the bike from another website.
"We agreed to do a rolls from 60 to 200 mph. The first race I was trying to get set up and I seen him hit the brakes. I thought to slow down some but that was not it. He was Brake Boosting. Then he just shot out like a cannon then I chased him. He said he shut down around 180 so I lost. Second race we were both dead on. I got out and held it there until I almost hit limiter in 6th gear that was 230 mph. I’m pretty sure he was at full boost 1550 but not 100%. Only thing that sucked in the race was a 13 mph cross wind that forced me to lean off the right side of the bike to keep straight up. The driver amazed me with his skills to handle this beast. Shifting this car that pulls 2 g's as fast as he does is just Amazing. From What I know NO UGR car has ever been beat unless by another UGR car. Sorry about the poor video but I guess Gopro HD's do not do night shots that Well.
Was a great race among people that truly love going fast"

I guess the bunch of you cannot read what I said in another Forum.
Tim and I had a good time with the race. Now we have the UGR Leg Humpers talking smack for what reason? How many of you own anything that is that fast bike or car? Maybe 6 of you on here. So please Keep a nice friendly race what it is instead of a pissing match. Did I see any of you along the side of me? Did you ride my bike and hang of the side? Hmm point being drop it We did this for fun so leave it that way. A other race has been set up so win or lose we again will enjoy what we both love doing racing and going fast!
