No crazier than bikers. Seen them do the same to cars.

If it was planned then I don't think it's him being crazy... Too close for me though!

Biker had his blinkers on...look at me, look at me, I'm fastest....oh, fuuuuuuu...!

That's a silly fast supra though.

Talking about biker blinkers; I caught out a biker last weekend doing just that and hogging the road (down the middle of a dual carriage way FFS)...I happened to open it up on my favourite mile flat to blow out the cobwebs..biker latched on and did the same (not racing, although he probably thought he was ), left me for dead as they do.

But like most fair weather bikers they can't take corners, and this road has a tricky one half way down. So whilst solely focused on whats in front instead of around him, he failed to realise I was nearly on top of him on the bend. I was so tempted to go around him (still dual carriage way), but thats not clever with amature bikers.....He noticed me when I blipped the throttle on the down changes, he then looked round and gunned it (as if to say "see ya")....only to find himself in too high a gear and not enough oomph to outrun me, despite downchanging another gear. Out of the way noob!!

F*ck that, I nearly had "an accident" watching that!

Amazing Supra.

Despite having a car with enough going and stopping power to leave most bikes behind on anything but a dual carriageway or motorway. I just let bikers get on with it ..... most of them have much more ego than talent, and there is much less room for error on a bike than a car! I don't want to be the one they were trying to prove a point with just before they went through the pearly gates!!

If I had a prat do that to me when I was on one of my bikes, I would follow him and stuff his teeth down his throat!

There seemed to be loads of people standing around on both sides of the carriageway at 0.30secs, they also seemed to have a very empty dual carriageway too....

I reckon it was all planned to race the bikes against the supra.

Quick tho:nods:

No doubt some unofficial meet judging by all the cars and peopel at the side of the road.

Although it seemed like a public road. Hmmm. Where's the Maccy Ds?

The credit at the end "thanks to the official motodrag racers" sort of gives away the pre-planned nature of it.

It's a quick car but I would say proper racing, if those bikes are past him then they are gone and he's not catching them at all. Nice stunt though.

5t.

I don't know how people go so fast. I went up to about 150mph in my Supra (not in the UK) and it didn't feel safe at all. And it would have carried on going for another 40mph or so.

I miss my Supra actually, a fabulous car. Shame that Toyota can't create anything to replace it. I guess the closest at the moment is the Nissan GTR.

Planned or not I'm not sure I'd want a car coming past at that speed where the driver has 1 hand on the wheel
