    I used to get challenged alot in the Ferraris by the GXXR guys, and they are a fearless crowd; mostly young, believe they are invulnerable; some have amazing skills. I can't, don't and won't ride that way. I have done a pretty impressive job of hangin with some of these throttle twistin dudes in my GT-2, though. And, i'm sure you saw the bike i am currently enamoured of: despite it being a Harley, its got amazing punch above 5k rpms and behaves more like drag bike than anything else. A little too heavy to stay with the GXXRs, but it does an impressive job on the highway.

    a car will take a bike in the corners...but the bike obviously can out accelerate a car. I'm talking about the faster spectrum of cars also. A lot of bike guys/girls think that their bike will eat any car...that's not the case...in the twisties. I have an 2004 zx6r (636) as well as a bmw so i'm not biased to cars...just telling the truth. My bike is fast as s**t but even with knees down a Porsche, Ferrari, Lambo...etc...will outcorner it. (with equal riders/drivers).

    True, the Harley guys love the Viper. I try to never race the squids while in my Viper, but I had to race one idiot on what appeared to be a 5 year old CBR 600. I'm pulling his little ass at the top of 1st and he pops a little wheelie after shifting and almost smashes into me. I had to slam on the brakes, no abs, so I almost slid into the curb. I'll NEVER do that again.
