I’ve just invented a motorbike that does 800mph, brakes to zero from that speed in 0.5 secs and makes that top speed in 0.75secs. I’ve also done a made up lap on a computer programme and uploaded it onto my virtual YouTube that doesn’t exist anywhere.

When I've played Tourist Trophy I have managed a 136mph lap the reality is around 10mph less.

It’s amazing how that complete lack of risk to you on a computer screen makes you able to go miles faster isn’t it hehe

A 126 is enough to come top ten.

I'm guessing that's as close as the majority of the anti bike posters would get to owning something that could actually beat a sports bike on the road. Perhaps leaving aside all those that are a disaster in waiting.

Well I'm now at the IOM & had a proper giggle chasing a couple of riders who were in a 140 Fiesta over the mountain yesterday (wrapping my 6'7 18 Stone frame on the thing was a giggle in itself) while I was on a borrowed Ninja 300.

I had a bit of a lead before we reached the mountain & had to ride the wheels off it just to keep them behind (traffic helped quite a bit) then we reached the Creg & they slaughtered me. biglaugh

Now you've done it. That's all the proof the car lot will need.

Duh, duh, duhhhhhhhhh Captain Awesome to the rescue smile

I can balance things out with my giggle on Sunday on the way home from the NW200. Just filled up with fuel and happily plodding along in a 30 when I notice a Nissan GTR behind me. He decides to overtake while I’m waiting for the others to catch up and then we’re out into the twisty and damp stuff along the coast road form Waterfoot to Carnlough.

I followed him through the first few corners watching his driving style, then overtook and cleared off, despite it being very twisty and damp. I even stopped for him twice to let him catch up before clearing off again. He was definitely trying too, as well as looking like a local out for his Sunday hoon and me riding the road for the second time in a year.

Strange that I managed that in conditions that everyone on here has said would make the car a guaranteed winner.

I googled the car when I got back, seems it’s no ordinary GTR either, although I think it is an older model, but only like that VF that was mentioned earlier and that was standard.

I got an RS 6 last weekend on my local road, I was riding my touring bike too.

I have no idea if he was really trying but the car was moving around a lot.

That makes me double awsome.
