This video is awesome! It is of some sort of Susuki crotch rocket with a huge turbo on it... The camera view is what amazes me though, they stuck the camera so you are essentially looking right where the drivers head is, you get to see the dash and all the components, and straight out the front.

I love the first two times he guns it... It flies from 60 to ~210 effortlessly!

I think it is the high end acceleration that blows me away more then anything... I got to borrow a pretty fast car for a weekend and I took it down to Detroit Metro airport...

Most people don't know, but there is about four miles of freshly layed arrow-straight road running under all of the runways there. It is a very neat place because the bridges all have those huge fans on them, and the bridges are quite low since no trucks can go through there.

And this was the first time I had ever taken a fast car well beyond 100 MPH, and it blew me away that even with over 300 horsepower the car was really struggling to get beyond 120 MPH... It was taking 10+ seconds to get 10 more MPH.

So thats why this video really blows me away, near the end there he takes the car from 100 to 200 in ~7 seconds!

Lol I was gonna make a thread about crotch rockets too because I rode my neighbor's today, damn those things go fast as fuck but are really sketchy at high speeds.

I actually saw a guy on T.V. a couple years ago i think, and he had to lay off the throttle at about 190 mph on an airstrip cause he almost shit his pants hehe a direct quote that bike is the shit for street legal.

i think that was in KPH. not quite as impressive. 100kph is something like 60 MPG i think. still fast, but not as fast as you think.

Maybe so but that bike will top 200 mph.
