Couple of squeaky bum moments there! He didn't appear to be flat out on one of the straights (but he was back past Meuspath) and he hit the
limiter a few times. I reckon he'll be ok with a bit more practice

Tisn't strictly a bike engine though is it? Tis a car engine, never been fitted to any production bike, only to some production cars AFAIK.
May be busa based, but its never seen a bike

Is the engine derived from a car engine?
No.
Is it derived from a motorcycle engine?
Yes.
I rest my case your honour........

I reckon i could beat that with enough money and practice too.
Good driving though. He's obviously very comfortable with the car.

a brilliant example of a very well set up car, very well geared, i am suprised they managed to fit the drivers balls in there though!
away from cars, now cycling and building TT bikes

Surely it's a Bike Derived Engined Car then?
Though I reckon more words should be added to point out its never been used in an actual bike.

Doesn't matter how many bike engines you stuff in a car, it's still a BEC. Just accept it and move on.....

good effort - you can see he got more confident, and more ragged the more he drove.
there is a longish almost straight bit where he set at 152 mph - w can see the car cna do 166 mph os definitely room for improvement.
I'd be still pootling round the first corner, LOL.
Well actually I wouldn't as my engine is borke

I'd probably be stopped behind you setting up a warning triangle and seeing what could be done to get you going again

But only gets 15mph out of the last gear!?
and it was a closed circuit hence why he finished on the finish line, not the gantry.
