I have a lot of friends that ride sport bikes. They've talked before about how fast bikes
are around a road course but I tend to wonder just how fast they are in comparison to cars? How close hypothetically would a stock C5 ZO6 be in comparision to a Hayabusa or any other current production bike on a road coarse given a skilled driver/rider? I remember the old article of the Viper vs the then fastest production bike in one of the car magazines and the Viper won, so I'm guessing it's close but maybe the bike would win. That's also taking into acount an expert rider on the bike aka someone that's crazy. |

I'm guessing the bike walked the ZO6 so hard because Willow is a pretty
"straight" wide open track. The more straights the better the track's suited for a bike, or even long sweepers. Throw in some chicanes and I bet it throws a wrench in the bike's times. Either way how many mods would the ZO6 really be away from the bike? Tires, cam, and supporting bolt-ons maybe? The bikes are impressive but I don't know how they'd fair against a new Viper or the upcoming C6 ZO6, especially on a tighter course. |
