Impressive video and both are displays of considerable skill. But the risk of falling off your bicycle and breaking an arm doesn't compare to what could happen if you got it wrong at the Ring.

I'm going to counter with a video of something less skillful at the Ring, just because it never ceases to make me laugh. hehe

Very good.
As I understand it, catching any real slide in a single seater takes a bit of skill, whereas he appeared to be in a drifting competition in one....

7.40 onwards is just superb eek
+1


drifting around the top of carousel! is that the best wet line there, or car too low to the ground to take the lower line?
When I saw him heading for the top line, I though 'wuss'....

I may have been wrong.

By the seat of his pants.

Personally, I find this one more impressive, even if he does eventually run out of talent.

Haven't seen that for a while. Haha. Oh dear.

My best mate was there last weekend. There was a chap who flew his Porker GT3 RS over from the US then crashed it in the first 10 mins. OOOUCH! That has gotta hurt.

Wow! That guy's car control is superb, I've done one wet lap round there and it was scary as he'll just cruising round (with 120bhp and traction control left firmly switched on)

I've got sweaty palms just watching that...
