Just found this video on a bike forum and thought you guys might enjoy it. Some good shots switching between both vehicles' POV whilst keeping the other one in the corner.

From memory the guy on the motorbike Jorund Seim tragically died on his motorbike at the 'ring a couple of year ago.

Yes, indeed. Though to clarify - he was awesome and safe - he went off on someone else's oil :-(
So - if you're planning a trip - PLEASE ensure your vehicle is not leaking fluids.

Looks as bad as our roads. Mirrors people!!!

Thats a shame about the rider.

I couldnt help but keep bending my head when watching it from the bike and what was the screetching coming from the porsche? Was it his brakes or the cars around him, if cars around him then they were very loud.

There is a bit of brake squeal at times if that is what you are referring to. High performance pads can be noisy.

Apart from the fact that my head isn't very bendy, watching it on full screen, it was fooling my mind into "feeling" the motion at times as the bike flipped from side to side.

As a Porsche driver and a biker I love watching stuff like that.
But it makes me realise that I can't drive a car, and I can't ride a bike!!
