In this widely distributed track vid, a 999 takes closely, a Lamborghini Gallardo.

It really doesn't matter how many times they try that, the car is almost always going to win.

I've driven a friend's GT-R, and it was really, really badass! I'm sure I'd go faster just about everywhere in one than I would on a sportbike.

I would've delayed the segment until the track was completely dry. There was definitely some wet/slick parts on it that would have me leary of going 100%. But that rider knew what the fuck was up. I just think the car got an edge because of the damp track. You can't brake as hard, and you can't accelerate as hard under those conditions. I know I wouldn't, but I'm also not nearly as fast and experienced as that rider.
