that engine has probably had thousands spent on it, standard vs standard watch the r1 piss all over it.
turbo r1 would be a good match, but then again that just wheelies!

so what if its had thousands spent on it? cars cant compete with bikes as bikes are far faster. its all good and well saying your 1.8 16v is fast, but that volvo is motorbike fast. a whole different terrritory of fast.

On the road bikes are a different level of fast, but on the track its the other way around.
F1 cars will always put in faster laps than motogp bikes and drag cars always run faster times than drag bikes.
In that vid the biker was missing gears and short shifting to stay behind the volvo untill top gear where it was creeping away flat out. if it was a straight drag race the yam would still have beat it!

but the lambo was still keeping up once he got it in the right gear and gave chase
The guy probably spent the same it costs to buy a used gallardo on the volvo anyway - so he has gallardo performance for gallardo money without gallardo style lol
