Guy on bike clips a WRX and then tries to outrun him
 

LOL...is this for real?

Good find....that dude on the bike is a scumbag

He wouldn't of taken so long to catch up if he was in a 370z.

:iagree:

Lol

thread on WRX forums from the wrx pov

Crotch rocket hit me and tried to run - NASIOC

The fact that he clipped the WRX for no reason what so ever shows how poor of a rider he was. Im telling you now "IF" I were to run from a car on my bike on twisties like that I would of gotten away.

what I want to know is where is this road at?? Looks mad fun to drive. :driving:

It's on jalopnik now.

Or, alternatively, if the rider had any sort of skill whatsoever it would have gone exactly the opposite way.

Never the less, I'm surprised he didn't get himself killed.

Ya, I'm not sure the rider was trying all that hard to get away. I'm not even very good and I could have left that guy in the dust on any bike better than a 250.

That guy on the bike will be in a box soon. He got lucky twice, first by not crashing when he hit the WRX and then the second time when he ran.

Honestly, a good rider on even a 250 should be able to get away easily.

I think the point is that the guy initially appeared to try to run. He passed the other bike on the double yellow, after passing the Subie on the double yellow and clipping it. Shady stuff! He should probably put the bike up for sale and stick to the city bus.

If that was me- I'm- I'm just sayin', if that was me, they are lucky that was not me, because if the circumstances were such, as you have described them but with me in them, that's a very different and scary outcome for those involved. If.

Well maybe but a 250's top speed is going to be around or less than 100mph.

Couldn't agree more about the city bus. Either way the guy is a total loser.

Right, but IMO it's easier to ride WOT at twice the speed limit through curvy roads than it is to stay on the road at the same speed on four wheels without getting yourself killed. If you can stay on a curvy road at 100mph on a bike, and a car can't keep up with you at those speeds without killing theirself, you're going to get away.

I've never owned a 250cc bike, but I've ridden friends and passed much bigger bikes up the mountain :)

Yep, that's a good point.

I actually have a CBR250r. It's pretty nimble so you're probably right. If the road was sufficiently curvy, I could probably pull away a bit.

I saw this earlier and was trying to figure out what happened. I had a ZX-6R and you would have to actually TRY to not leave him behind, there was one time that I decided to really punch it at night on an empty road and I went from 40 to about 155 in like 3 seconds. He knew what he did and tried to run, then for some reason changed his mind. Weird...

Maybe he spotted the camera on the front of the guys car and realized he might have his tag number.
