Bring your *** down for the Eurocharged tune and track day and you will meet him. I garantee It. He is one of my only friends. And I will gladly let every one know that the E63 he is in is slower than his bike.

Craig, My boy Gus is beyond these punks!! He has been doing this at a much younger age that these riders you are posting. He now owns a E63 with Vossen CV2's. No disrespect to the guys on your vid, but Gus is beyond BAD AS$!!!!!!! Maybe I can get him to chime in. Or maybe not. Either way, my man is the sh**!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gus posted pics of him sideways at the track on one of his bikes (it was a great pic and definitely captured his extraordinary high skill level) but the guys who run the TT are flat out insane. Even the top MotoGP guys are in awe of them (one of the best clips is when Valentino Rossi is shaking his head at what these guys are doing). When racers crash, there's gravel pits, track specified run off, minimum safety zones. . .etc, when the guys at the TT crash - its usually stone walls and unfortunately, a hearse. It's not the skill, it what everyone else so accurately stated - it's the *****....
I am sure he has mad respect for the Isle of Man TT riders, as it stated in one of the captions, one TINY little error, and your life flashes before your eyes, before you hit a concrete wall at well over 100mph, which is certain death.
I am going to order that video, as my 3yr old son is obsessed with watching it on youtube, we have to watch it daily
I am not complaining

One of the guys from my local bike shop actually went there and raced and said it was the scariest thing he's ever done. I dont know what class or anything he rode in but i know they have pictures of him on the wall from there and doing a wheelie past the fans on what looks like the opening ceremony or something. I've raced motocross at a high level a several years ago but couldn't imagine racing like they do.

The only bigger adrenaline rush than taking a bike around a track that i have experienced was jumping out of an airplane. The IOM might match that.
I used to race bikes back in the day. I had a brand new 2004 GSX-R 1000 as a track bike. If I could spend on my car what I spent on racing for one year... Well, I'd have a really fast car. I had to call it quits because life is expensive with college, kids, strippers, etc.

isle of man is the sh%t !! basically rally car racing with bikes on pavement, on imperfect roads and anyone thats riden on both road and track on a bike knows there is a world of difference in the traction and predictability of the bike between the 2 surfaces... going into a 45 degree turn at 100mph on a perfectly groomed track with smooth surface is much different that a road with cracks, dirt and pebbles...
mad props to isle of man riders over moto gp/ ama superbike any day

but the s4 def a faster than my e55 with longtubes and EC tune. as its prob at about +50hp more and 800lbs less weight.
at any speed less then 60 mph it blows the doors off my e55 due to the traction differences. I can floor it in the s4 anytime pretty much without much problems while with the E55 annoy MR. blinky comes on ---> lol
