Breaking news!! Yamaha R6 and E55 get it on...VIDEO!!

Super great guy who pulled up after it was over and gave me thumbs up and I did the same. You can't see it on the tape, but at the redlight (at the end), was a highway patrol facing straight at us. One minute later and I woulda been posting "Went To Jail".

Guy was nice enough to go from a roll. I woulda got killed from a dig.
You can literally see when he shifted as we approached 130. Top speed roughly 135-140 on the pass.

Adrenaline pumping on a bike kill so I was a little emotional.

Like I said in my other post,chances are pretty good you would have gotten him out of the hole,the R6 needs to be revved super high to get a good 60' as it makes peak power very very high up in the rpm range and most new R6 owners arent willing to slip the clutch at 8,000rpm just to beat a car.600's need to be re-geared in order to beat cars like ours

Great video. Chances are the guy on the bike was a little shocked at the 4-door sedan which stuck with him and then passed. Whenever you feel like making another of these vids, make sure you do so.
