Holy shit riding that H2R must be like trying to hold on to a launching missile!

Holy shit riding that H2R must be like trying to hold on to a launching missile!

With bikes like that, its more about getting a good launch and keeping your weight forward and the front wheel down. With the nannies on board its less of an issue nowadays.
The forces from acceleration aren't really that memorable.

As you get up to higher speeds (160+) its just wind buffeting that really sticks out if anything.
With big HP bikes, the extra pull on the top end (meaning 150-200) is just a number with extra wind attached to it.

The plane always wins. Somewhere between "airborne" and "Mach 1."

Oooh:

Which was my favorite car seen during the 2018 Goodwood Festival of Speed? I'd say this one and it was unveiled by Singer, a California-based Porsche restorer company famous for its incredible quality reimaginations of Porsche's 911s. The DLS ("Dynamics and Lightweighting Study") is their last creation.

The entire project is a result of a client's commission, who wanted Singer to improve the performance and reducing the weight of his Porsche 964 (Singer will modify 75 other cars with the same or similar upgrades), and the collaboration with Williams Advanced Engineering and two legendary Porsche engineers.

Engine has been fully developed by Williams and legendary Porsche engineer Hans Mezger. It is a 4.0-litre air cooled NA flat-6 engine that is able to produce up to 500hp at 9,000 rpm. This thanks to the use of quality materials: four titanium valves per cylinder, twin overhead magnesium cams, lightweight throttle bodies with F1-style upper and lower injectors and a modified oil system.

The outside body is now full carbon-fibre and the aero has been studdied and modified in order to improve everything. Suspensions has been fully revised and developed by Williams too while the 6-speed manual gearbox has been produced by Hewland.

The interiors are simply what I called "work of art" with Recaro lightweight seats, carbon fibre everywhere and carbo-titanium pedals. WWhat I love the most is the exposed gearshift.

Hear and watch one of their 911 DLS prototype running up Goodwood' hillclimb course!

Now that I finally watched the OP video: There was zero grip on that runway, poor F1 car was spinning the rears into third or fourth?

Also, award for msot obscene sounding race car of 2018: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQ8riM4qNwE
That sound so old school...

here is another great Beast of Turin Video. sounds insane for a 4 cyl, of course 28L is a bit bigger than most 4 cyl engines

it really bugs me when people call a p100D a P100DL like they do in that video.

There is no such thing as a P100DL.
There is a thing called a P90DL but not a P100DL, because ALL P100D's are P100DL's unless you buy a CPO where they disable Ludicrous mode, which is like very rare.

When people call a P100DL i think of those days when people would put that L badge on a benz.. so a 420SE they would throw the L to make it look more expensive.

But seriously, call a P100D a D, the P100D's alone means your going to get wrecked on a 0-60.
A P100D is a P100D as Ludicrous which the L stands for is standard feature for that obnoxiously large price tag at $153k. :T
