Yamaha R1 Vs Porsche GT3 RS On Snow Track

Bloody mad.... I can't even go that fast on the road on my bike, let alone snow.

Hats off :thumbs:
 
R1+snow+nutter= :whiteangel: bloody impressive though I've got that wr450 it's frighteningly quick but I cant do that :eek:
 
Very impressive :worship:
 
R1 knee down in the snow :eek: EPIC!
 
Off-topic:
Petrolheads will be interested in the crankshaft of this unique? "crossplane" R1. (I have one) In a normal in-line four-cylinder engine the pistons go up and down together (outer two matched and travelling in opposite directions to the matched inner pair). So they all slow down, stop and change direction at the same time.
The crossplane R1 has the crankshaft arranged as a North-East-West-South cross. It gives a very different and completely relaxed feeling at high (up to 13k!) revs, and an amazing sound.
 
Insane to the point of utter genius!!! Mega respect to the car and bike pilots. :worship:
