I don't know what that is? But it's got some serious low end grunt, sounds like it could be a V6?

Awesome stuff, thanks.

That's one BadAssed lil Suzi.........I'm guessin' 500HP or more, and all at a fairly low RPM.

Little bastard wheel spins on pavement @60MPH, and probably all 4 wheels at that.

I'm gonna watch it again!!!

I feel sorry for people that don't know the thrill of steering with the back end of a car.


Look at the result of making a boo boo at the peak.

I remember that clip as being some artsy fartsy thing from the '70's or so.

They used an actual F1 driver, and I think he got in a little bit of trouble.

Yeah Cr it was '76
Claude Lelouch. He was apparently arrested after it was released. Sound may be a dubbed Ferrari 275 GTB, which Lelouch owned but the run was the real deal.

I heard of it in the book The Driver, the story of A. Roy's run from La to NY in 32:07, an enjoyable read.

Yeah, I remember now........They were supposed to have radio contact with spotters at busy intersections, I think they had a radio malfunction in the car, and he ended up doing it by the seat of the pants.

Awesome video.

I may have posted this before in another thread. This guy has more control over his bike than anyone I've ever seen.

Slippery road, wheelspin, sliding sideways between cars, thru stop lights, he even passes a motorcycle cop.

I've been riding for 42 years, and have done more than my share of nutty stunts, but this guy scares the shit outta me.

Love the sound of a V-twin. Hell any twin sounds great. My bike is a triple, she just sounds strange.

Check out this R1 street tracker on my road.
