wr vs wrx

Got shown this the other day and thought it was quite good, although the first 1.30 might aswell be skipped. http://nz.youtube.com/watch?v=Ej9MkCSg59w

Great shots. I think the WR won

- be nice to know what they are actually saying. Pretty cool to see a bike going hard against a rally car and winning - had to push the bike hard though

yeah, impressive. i thought the wrx would take it out but obviousely not. They should run the same thing but on a gravel road with knobblies/rally tyres. I think the wrx would kill him in that case

nice, howd he get 65 hp from a 450 ? sheesh I want some of that shit !

ADB from a month or so back did that test & yeah the rally car won, but definitely not a thrashing.

This is an older vid, looks like the bike won.

However, there are always those factors of road width vs vehicle width etc etc blah blah.

The bike was having more fun

LMAO as you guys prob know they are speaking in french, the whole time they were just giving each other shit about who is faster blah blah, but yeah the bike won by just over 1 sec, the Moto guy was also saying that the 450 is hard to hang on to and that it chews through the tyres really quick.

Also at one stage some guy asked why he only had 1 bike while the other had 4 WRX's and his answer was simple... This bike is all you need LMAO

good vid rupe!
I didn't think the rally car was that fast. But in syaing that the bike was showing off aswell with all those wheel stands. They loose time as well. Bloody good rider though, loved that wheelie through that corner!

Nice Post Rupe!
