So i don't bore anyone, the simple math is: at factory weight, the Lambo and the Corvette would both need to be at around 1,000 hp to have a competitive power to weight ratio against a stock Hayabusa. Food for thought..
@m4a1_delta66 yes, top speed difference is dramatic. But let's be real. Barring a drag race at a 2 mile long course, whose hitting those speeds? Races are won or lost between 80 and 150.
Well this is probably the slowest Busa in the world if he was actually trying to race there.. Will fools with cars ever give up trying to beat bikes, I mean really,what happens when you come to corners ?
When it comes to cornering, you'd better be a very good motorcycle driver. It's easy to pull over 1G in a sports/supercar all the way up tot 1.3G (even beyond in some rare cases), WITHOUT (semi-)slicks. I don't know if you actually own a superbike, but I'd say you try pulling that kind of G's in one! Yes they can, it's not for the faint of heart though.
This is without question the most amazing sound I have ever heard. Just a clean straight rev to clutch, and no bullshit on the actual gear change. The person driving the 'vette KNOWS how to drive and race. Well done.
This will be in the Kings of the Street II with more explanation. FYI, the Busa in the first part was the camera platform - it was there specifically to stay behind the trailing car to film from that perspective.
DavidGFilms Given the condition of the road, I wouldn't try too hard either. The sand, longitudinal cracks and serious dips (I think the 'vette driver hit his head on the roof), combined with the air coming off the 'vette, would not inspire me to let it all hang out.
The hayabusa is a chase bike you Muppets, it isn't meant to go faster than them, a chase bike funnily enough will stay behind and "chase" from the rear
I am a Vette owner (hence the name) a few tricks done but still naturally aspirated and I can tell you: unless the vette is a full blown drag car or the biker has no clue how to ride, the vette has no chance in hell. Nothing against the Vette, its simple power to weight.
People talking shit about corvettes and how busas are so much faster should really go to a standing mile race and see for them selves and than come back and comment ,, I own both a vette and a busa and I can tell you that the busa it's faster on the take off but if you try to race a corvette that has a supercharger and already rolling at over 50mph it's no way that a stock busa will win no way
How is this fake? Because busa can't beat vette? I didn't see nothing fake about that 3300lb car smoking 585lb bike. These busas are wicked no doubt but u can make a car faster. Obviously
+CaptCaaaveMaaan you don't understand anything but "horsepower." Let's say the vette is 3300lbs and has 800hp. That's .2424 power to weight. Busa is 585lbs and 200hp. That's .3419 power to weight. Plus the Busa wins on aerodynamics. Tell me again how the Vette wins if the Busa is trying?
I know the owner of this car, in fact both of our cars are in the Nov 05 Vette Magazine article. I guess I'm lucky enough to own both a TT Vette and a Busa. The owner of this car has his car setup to pull to 200mph per hour, stock 99 Busa did over 200mph, both are impressive.
this is a bullshit video !!! no corvette will be a hayabusa even in stock form ! end of story ! i have a 2001 busa with 88k on it and i have never lost a race to a car and i have race modded zr1's and left them for DEAD !
there is a 2,264bhp C5 Corvette that with the exception of its rear spoiler, roll cage and tires you couldn't tell way any different from any other C5 vette. just a little food for thought for all of you people saying a vette would never beat a busa
@phatphred What gave you the impression that the Vette in the vid is stock? Many twin turbo Vettes do the quarter in faster than 9 seconds, and do zero to 60 in under 2.2.
I've run a best of 203.1 at the Mojave mile. The car now has a stroked 418 LS3 with a Paxton supercharger making around 800 RWHP! The lambo had a few hundred less HP, hence the gap! The last run with the Busa was a close race, and not officially started. I did pull toward the end, but the busa may not have been in the optimal gear. My car has now pulled on a few different busas in it's present form.
Its obviously a busa, the stacked headlights and embedded turn signals make it painfully obvious. The busa wasn't racing, it was following to confirm who won.
what you just saw was a preview to "King of the Streets II" from fulltiltlife. That purple supercharged corvette was in the first dvd and it is a work of art. Obviously it doesn't just have a charger slapped on to it but it's making "Quality" hp as opposed to huge numbers. I've seen stock or light modded bus's and literbikes eat 800hp cars and other similar modded bike get eaten by 700hp cars. Not all machines perform the same be it engine condition or the pilots abilities.
it sure as hell did, that sound ohhh maaan! And yes i too would like some footage of the Corvette, maybe from the lambo or the busa, they were so owned! LOL still laughing, that was sick dude! please make some more vidz guys!
actually the build for a C5 to get over 2,000bhp would probably only cost $100 grand including the C5 Z06 to build it in. $50,000 for the car and $50,000 for the build including tune, TT's, drivetrain, suspension and chassis support
I thought the camera was in the Vette instead of on the Busa. I've no doubt the Busa will do 200 right off the showroom floor. Amazing for less than $15000.00. A common mans exotic!
I've jumped in here once or twice, but since this vid is still going, I thought I might comment again. I'm the driver of the vette and the one who shot and edited the video, someone has grabbed it... Here is the truth: Busa hung back on first run to get both the lambo and the supercharged C5 in the video. He had a camera on the bike, and we were shooting for a dvd. The C5 had a built 346 motor with Vortech Supercharger, making about 700 RWHP. Slow shifts are due to faulty Tranny install
Damn, 2006. My trucks value hadn't depreciated back then lol. What was done to the vette? I didn't hear a turbo, or supercharger (I am however on my phone of course so I could be wrong). If it was all engine then color me impressed, that was some serious money at the time.
I found the site you got your information from, but those have to be theoretical figures based on the dynomometer analysis (1.4s 0-60). I don't think it's physically possibly to put that kind of power to the ground--even on a rig like that.
That particular Hyabusa lost, it's driver wasn't scared. If it was a "Turbo" Hyabusa though, the outcome would have been a little different. Either way, awesome Corvette....!
@JuanyJuanes Looks like the road had a bunch of bumps and hills in it... that and it was going almost 200mph. Even with a chin spoiler it still is a lot of air pushing up on the car.
Nice vid but need to get those shifts ALOT faster for sure. I counted almost a 1 sec delay in each shift. If you were in the 1/4, thats an eternity worth of time between shifts.
Man, there are some real idiots on here. The corvette is supercharged, it put down approximately 680rwhp at the time. The busa is stock, as is the murcielago roadster. In the first race, the busa had a camera on it, and was filming the race,the rider had specifically been told to stay behind the lambo to film the results of the race, otherwise he would have drilled the lambo easily.
This video is not fake. It is an 800+ horsepower supercharged LS1 Corvette with methanol injection intercooling , among other things. It has reached 200 mph since this video was made (documented with video). This car is well known in the Vette enthusiast community, and known to be as fast as this video demonstrates.
looks like antolope valley ive ran my speedo past 220- buried it .wind resistance is the key busa cuts like a knife more stable at 185 then 160 you can feel bike lower itself as speed increases.
What is the name of this road and where is it exactly, please if you don't mind? I've seen Motorcyclist magazine use this road sometimes in its top speed runs.
Just plain "KICK-ASS." a lot of damn good tweaking on your Vette for that speed and be that steady on that road . Sounds Beautiful . U would leave me in my 08 waving bye-bye 2 ya
The Vette pulls away for approx. 12 seconds. Watching this video all the way through you'll also notice that at no time does the Busa even get in front of the Vette. Since the cameras mounted on the car don't give you a very good field of view I'll say that, at most, there is about a 20 ft zone on the side of the car that the Busa could be in. "I'm sure it would be ahead of the vette at least up to 100 mph if not more like 150." | | This statement = wrong
It was a fun to watch video. I think my Busa was insulted... I have a friend with a Vette Z... damn sexy car... damn fast car... handles like a dream. Hell, I might get me one of them. However, there wasn't enough blurr in the yellow line to suggest 5th gear top-end for a stock Busa. Great video to watch! Thanks!
Good points. Still, I doubt any of those were factors in the 'Busa losing. The Vette was supercharged after all... and at those speeds horsepower becomes more and more important compared to power/weight ratio.
I don't think the girl riding the Busa knew that there were more than 3 gears. I'm sure the Vette is built, but even so, wouldn't hold a candle to a Busa.
I have to agree, thats the laziest, laid back - "I'll drink my coffee while I race" shifting (on behalf of the vette driver!) My little stock Saturn SL2 goes quicker between gears with its wobbly ass, FWD linkaged shifter! Anyone else? SHEESH!
First: Quick question why is it that every bike vs car vid I see on you tube they always race on a Roll On, Why not from a dig to a reasonable distance like actual racers? Is Roll On a handicap for cars or something?
Tell them like it is man. These folks gotta be nuts. The Busa would walk away from the vette and lambo. It's got an amazing power to weight ratio that cannot be matched by these cars.
Everyone needs to stop saying the hayabusa is "scared" or they can't believe the lambo lost or some other such nonsense. It says the bike is the chase vehicle right in the video. Also, there are Corvettes out there that are 900hp+ and can beat any bike in top speed. Murciélagos are fast, but they're not 900hp killers.
@AZG1164 lol it doesn't take "heavy mods" to unrestricted top speed. fifty bucks and a half hour is all it takes for a Busa to kick even more ass than it does stock.
My only beef with the zr1 is most people cant tell the difference between the c6 for like 50k and 100k zr1. Spice that shit up, all vettes look the same. I don't want to spend a 100k on a car and see it on every block.
that is very true, i've seen street bikes that can out sprint some prostock drag cars. But listen to the corvette! 1. it definetly not stock, 2. the race started from a roll, (so the bike looses the lightning start)
The busa would win if it were stock vs stock or if it were mod vs mod. Now if you have a modded vette/lambo, it will win the stock busa. Also, the rider makes a world of difference. If they dont shift properly they will get smoked no matter what they are riding/driving. A lot of people are either hard core bike fans or hard core car fans but the truth of the matter is in a fair matchup on a straight (stock vs stock or mod vs mod) a bike wins every time on curves or track car wins.
yeah im with you if the busa's front end stays down then they're not on the throttle at all! i rode one and one twist and it pulled rightup. they cant drive anything hear how slow the shifts were in the vette?
It's not a bike issue, but a driver issue. I love cars as much as the next person, but hell, most 250cc bikes would accelerate faster than pretty much any car fit for driving on the street. A Hayabusa? It would be out of sight before the Lambo/Vette reached 60mph, if it were driven by an experienced driver.
I'm going to call bullshit. 2000hp would only be useful on a drag strip, even then all the busa needs is a set of drag tires. That busa would run 140 through S-turns easy while your "friends" monte carlo would be struggling for any sort of traction.
Impressive vehicles. Although, the comparison of stock to a non stock makes no sense to me. Run a modded Hayabusa versus a modded Corvette and that would be rational. Its like comparing apples to oranges.
I would love to race against this guy in the vet for slips with my Blackbird.... This guy with the Busa is giving the Busa a bad Reputation... I personally know that every gear is like a SHOT GUN when you know HOW TO FULLY OPEN THE FARKEN THROTTLE!!!!!!!
The busa would smoke both of those if they started accelerating from 0, and since that was a stock busa, it's top speed is limited, if the limitations would be taken off, it's go another 30-40mph faster without any other modifications...
Vette does not "pull" on the Busa until the very end when the Vette is most likely doing 195+ as it stated against the Lambo which is faster than the top speed factory limit of 186 for the Busa. Still... it is an impressive car.
Well not that the corvette isn't bad...but just curious why you decided to start the busa race in 3rd gear on the bike (when 3rd gear is good for 115 mph-142 mph and I'm pretty sure you were going slower than that. Reason for the 3rd gear run in the hayabusa...so the front tire doesn't lift off the ground, get someone that can actually ride the motorcycle.
I own a 2008, Red Crystal Corvette, and I've smoked alot of cars ....including Lambos. Keep in mind that my vette is just plain stock, its not a Z06, c6 etc. ....but I dont know about beating a Hayabusa. To me its all about American muscle, but Hayabusas a freakin' SICK ! so all you haters, stop talkin' smack about Busas !!
You guys should know what your taking about before commenting... i ride a hayabusa and that bike was not running it because it would have blown the doors off that lambo. I have raced quite a few super cars and none of them stood a chance.
A stock busa will take a stock vette at any speed. A turbo charged busa will take any steet legal car at any speed. Don't get me wrong. I do like corvettes, alot.
I totally agree! It is rather a rookie driver on that Busa that makes the difference.I have never met a vette on the street but even with my Z1000/07 that is REALLY classes behind the above bikes, I have not been beaten by the lambo galardo that tried to "play" with me last year. And this car is sold with 500hp as the specs say.
Thats great but just so you're aware, down a 1/4 mile drag race the Hayabusa (the fastest production bike atm is the BMW S1000RR) would smoke a Bugatti veryon. The Veryrons official time is 9.7 seconds while the Turbo Hayabusa is 9.28. Oh and when it comes to price, the Hayabusa is about $20,000 whilst the Veyron is $2,400,000. Now do the math, you could spend $35,000 at max to go 430km/h or $2.4million.
So i don't bore anyone, the simple math is: at factory weight, the Lambo and the Corvette would both need to be at around 1,000 hp to have a competitive power to weight ratio against a stock Hayabusa. Food for thought..
Dude a stock ZR1 can do little over than 215-220Mph the busa would be losing because it maxes out around 199-200
@m4a1_delta66 yes, top speed difference is dramatic. But let's be real. Barring a drag race at a 2 mile long course, whose hitting those speeds? Races are won or lost between 80 and 150.
Yeah I can agree with you on that definitely, also wind resistance can depend
The new ZR1 is suppose to have round 900 ponies 🤣 maybe who knows 😂
Well this is probably the slowest Busa in the world if he was actually trying to race there.. Will fools with cars ever give up trying to beat bikes, I mean really,what happens when you come to corners ?

I don't know if you actually own a superbike, but I'd say you try pulling that kind of G's in one! Yes they can, it's not for the faint of heart though.
Bikes for gays
Race is a race. Busa got toasted
This is without question the most amazing sound I have ever heard. Just a clean straight rev to clutch, and no bullshit on the actual gear change. The person driving the 'vette KNOWS how to drive and race. Well done.
This will be in the Kings of the Street II with more explanation. FYI, the Busa in the first part was the camera platform - it was there specifically to stay behind the trailing car to film from that perspective.
Busa... Busa... Busa... enough said!
Busa lost!!Enough said!! JK!! busa's are bad ass2
Imagine typing and posting that on a video where a Busa gets destroyed racing a car. Lol!!
To many videos trying to make bikes look slow.
When you are on 4 wheels it moves your body, when you are on 2 wheels it moves your soul!!
I understand.
probably one of the best vids ive seen on here that rear mounted cam is sick dude
i dont think the busa was trying
DavidGFilms Given the condition of the road, I wouldn't try too hard either. The sand, longitudinal cracks and serious dips (I think the 'vette driver hit his head on the roof), combined with the air coming off the 'vette, would not inspire me to let it all hang out.
The hayabusa is a chase bike you Muppets, it isn't meant to go faster than them, a chase bike funnily enough will stay behind and "chase" from the rear
I am a Vette owner (hence the name) a few tricks done but still naturally aspirated and I can tell you: unless the vette is a full blown drag car or the biker has no clue how to ride, the vette has no chance in hell. Nothing against the Vette, its simple power to weight.

Lol busa could have smoked all those cars
How is this fake? Because busa can't beat vette? I didn't see nothing fake about that 3300lb car smoking 585lb bike. These busas are wicked no doubt but u can make a car faster. Obviously
But the Busa can even beat a Gtr(Nismo) so your argument is false
Sorry this bad ass American beast destroys gtr so I guess your argument is invalid
+CaptCaaaveMaaan you don't understand anything but "horsepower." Let's say the vette is 3300lbs and has 800hp. That's .2424 power to weight. Busa is 585lbs and 200hp. That's .3419 power to weight. Plus the Busa wins on aerodynamics. Tell me again how the Vette wins if the Busa is trying?
Jesus, I thought that damn car was going to take off like a jet! The rear shots were great
I know the owner of this car, in fact both of our cars are in the Nov 05 Vette Magazine article. I guess I'm lucky enough to own both a TT Vette and a Busa. The owner of this car has his car setup to pull to 200mph per hour, stock 99 Busa did over 200mph, both are impressive.
this is a bullshit video !!! no corvette will be a hayabusa even in stock form ! end of story ! i have a 2001 busa with 88k on it and i have never lost a race to a car and i have race modded zr1's and left them for DEAD !
a corvette cant even beat a r6
This is one of my favorite videos. That Vette is sick! Amazing sound. Thank you.
there is a 2,264bhp C5 Corvette that with the exception of its rear spoiler, roll cage and tires you couldn't tell way any different from any other C5 vette. just a little food for thought for all of you people saying a vette would never beat a busa
i kind thought he was going to blast off into into stelar space!
@phatphred What gave you the impression that the Vette in the vid is stock? Many twin turbo Vettes do the quarter in faster than 9 seconds, and do zero to 60 in under 2.2.
I agree. The act of twisting the handle is an extremely complicated task that should only be left to the best of riders.
Jesus, watching that Vette take off is like watching "The Wraith".
I've run a best of 203.1 at the Mojave mile.
The car now has a stroked 418 LS3 with a Paxton supercharger making around 800 RWHP!
The lambo had a few hundred less HP, hence the gap! The last run with the Busa was a close race, and not officially started. I did pull toward the end, but the busa may not have been in the optimal gear.

nice vid,but question,witch year/model is the vette exactly,and what moter is in it/ mods?
I thought the camera was in the Vette instead of on the Busa. I've no doubt the Busa will do 200 right off the showroom floor. Amazing for less than $15000.00. A common mans exotic!
that first little race seemed a lot more like a pull than a race Rofl. sick vette, just badass all in all
I've jumped in here once or twice, but since this vid is still going, I thought I might comment again. I'm the driver of the vette and the one who shot and edited the video, someone has grabbed it...

Hi pitbull329 , congratulations for this great video ! Please, could you tell me some power numbers about the vette engine ?
I found the site you got your information from, but those have to be theoretical figures based on the dynomometer analysis (1.4s 0-60). I don't think it's physically possibly to put that kind of power to the ground--even on a rig like that.
That particular Hyabusa lost, it's driver wasn't scared. If it was a "Turbo" Hyabusa though, the outcome would have been a little different. Either way, awesome Corvette....!
I need to know only this - the Hayabusa clearly did not acellerate hard. As a motorcyclist of many years experience, it's more than clear.
@JuanyJuanes Looks like the road had a bunch of bumps and hills in it... that and it was going almost 200mph. Even with a chin spoiler it still is a lot of air pushing up on the car.
Man, that Vette driver shifts slow, it would be even more impressive if he didn't lose all of his momentum between shifts
Nice vid but need to get those shifts ALOT faster for sure. I counted almost a 1 sec delay in each shift. If you were in the 1/4, thats an eternity worth of time between shifts.
Man, there are some real idiots on here.
The corvette is supercharged, it put down approximately 680rwhp at the time. The busa is stock, as is the murcielago roadster. In the first race, the busa had a camera on it, and was filming the race,the rider had specifically been told to stay behind the lambo to film the results of the race, otherwise he would have drilled the lambo easily.

although the murcielago and hayabusa seemed kind of out of it...
is that zr1?
Just plain "KICK-ASS." a lot of damn good tweaking on your Vette for that speed and be that steady on that road . Sounds Beautiful . U would leave me in my 08 waving bye-bye 2 ya
i agree the busa is a bit over hyped at times but ya gotta give it credit for being as fast as it is without any modifications.
Its a C5 Z06. 405 horsepower stock. But, this one has an aftermarket supercharger and supporting mods giving it a lot more power than that.
The Vette pulls away for approx. 12 seconds. Watching this video all the way through you'll also notice that at no time does the Busa even get in front of the Vette.

However, there wasn't enough blurr in the yellow line to suggest 5th gear top-end for a stock Busa. Great video to watch! Thanks!
The video title is misleading as the BUSA IS ONLY A CHASE BIKE. IT EVEN STATES IT AT THE BEGINNING OF THE VIDEO
Good points. Still, I doubt any of those were factors in the 'Busa losing. The Vette was supercharged after all... and at those speeds horsepower becomes more and more important compared to power/weight ratio.
you know you are going fast when the center lines become the center line.
awesome!!! Why does the front of the vette lift up when he hits about 170 mph?
If that Busa wasnt a chase bike it woulda been over!!!
I don't think the girl riding the Busa knew that there were more than 3 gears. I'm sure the Vette is built, but even so, wouldn't hold a candle to a Busa.
That first view (the one from the rear mount) was friggin awesome, I was waiting for takeoff!!!
The only reason he pulled the Busa is because it was at a roll. If you do it at a start, the Vette doens't stand a chance.
I have to agree, thats the laziest, laid back - "I'll drink my coffee while I race" shifting (on behalf of the vette driver!) My little stock Saturn SL2 goes quicker between gears with its wobbly ass, FWD linkaged shifter!
Anyone else?
SHEESH!
Okay, now supercharge the Murcielago, turbocharge the Hayabusa, and then run that again.
The busa did not get beat because it was a chase bike. You unleash the power of a stock busa and watch these cars sink.
Oh please... the Hayabusa would have pulled on these two in any condition. He wasn't even trying. That's like putting a Civic up against a mustang.
Hell of a vette man!! That things a monster!!
First: Quick question why is it that every bike vs car vid I see on you tube they always race on a Roll On, Why not from a dig to a reasonable distance like actual racers? Is Roll On a handicap for cars or something?
Tell them like it is man. These folks gotta be nuts. The Busa would walk away from the vette and lambo. It's got an amazing power to weight ratio that cannot be matched by these cars.
Everyone needs to stop saying the hayabusa is "scared" or they can't believe the lambo lost or some other such nonsense. It says the bike is the chase vehicle right in the video. Also, there are Corvettes out there that are 900hp+ and can beat any bike in top speed. Murciélagos are fast, but they're not 900hp killers.

that is very true, i've seen street bikes that can out sprint some prostock drag cars. But listen to the corvette! 1. it definetly not stock, 2. the race started from a roll, (so the bike looses the lightning start)
The busa would win if it were stock vs stock or if it were mod vs mod. Now if you have a modded vette/lambo, it will win the stock busa. Also, the rider makes a world of difference. If they dont shift properly they will get smoked no matter what they are riding/driving. A lot of people are either hard core bike fans or hard core car fans but the truth of the matter is in a fair matchup on a straight (stock vs stock or mod vs mod) a bike wins every time on curves or track car wins.
yeah im with you if the busa's front end stays down then they're not on the throttle at all! i rode one and one twist and it pulled rightup. they cant drive anything hear how slow the shifts were in the vette?
It's not a bike issue, but a driver issue. I love cars as much as the next person, but hell, most 250cc bikes would accelerate faster than pretty much any car fit for driving on the street. A Hayabusa? It would be out of sight before the Lambo/Vette reached 60mph, if it were driven by an experienced driver.
Wats all done to the vette it sounded like a rocket from inside the way it was winding love it I have a 04 Gto and I want mines like this
That's some brutal acceleration by all of those vehicles. Beats my little Buick wagon... :-)
You know your car is fast when the yellow dashes on the road turn in to a continuous yellow line... 0:52
I'm going to call bullshit.
2000hp would only be useful on a drag strip, even then all the busa needs is a set of drag tires. That busa would run 140 through S-turns easy while your "friends" monte carlo would be struggling for any sort of traction.
Impressive vehicles. Although, the comparison of stock to a non stock makes no sense to me. Run a modded Hayabusa versus a modded Corvette and that would be rational. Its like comparing apples to oranges.
I would love to race against this guy in the vet for slips with my Blackbird.... This guy with the Busa is giving the Busa a bad Reputation... I personally know that every gear is like a SHOT GUN when you know HOW TO FULLY OPEN THE FARKEN THROTTLE!!!!!!!
That vette leavin everything in the dust
The busa would smoke both of those if they started accelerating from 0, and since that was a stock busa, it's top speed is limited, if the limitations would be taken off, it's go another 30-40mph faster without any other modifications...
I don't think a supercharger would bring a 40k Corvette to 75k, that's a huge difference. But yeah, bikes are still substantially cheaper
It said right at the beginning, the vette is supercharged. You can hear the supercharger whining on the in car footage.
That Busa rider wasn't trying very hard :P
If you take off the governor in the ECU that Hayabusa can do 200+ too. It also doesn't take five minutes to get there.
Vette does not "pull" on the Busa until the very end when the Vette is most likely doing 195+ as it stated against the Lambo which is faster than the top speed factory limit of 186 for the Busa. Still... it is an impressive car.
Haha yeah, that Lamborghini is just wayyy too heavy to go around corners and 8 mpg is nothing but a joke. Well said!!
Well not that the corvette isn't bad...but just curious why you decided to start the busa race in 3rd gear on the bike (when 3rd gear is good for 115 mph-142 mph and I'm pretty sure you were going slower than that. Reason for the 3rd gear run in the hayabusa...so the front tire doesn't lift off the ground, get someone that can actually ride the motorcycle.
Was the Lambo and Busa just stock and Vette loaded to hell? Big fan of Hayabusa but props to the Corvette. Can't argue with the results.
I own a 2008, Red Crystal Corvette, and I've smoked alot of cars ....including Lambos. Keep in mind that my vette is just plain stock, its not a Z06, c6 etc. ....but I dont know about beating a Hayabusa. To me its all about American muscle, but Hayabusas a freakin' SICK ! so all you haters, stop talkin' smack about Busas !!
The busa would have owned the cagers if the rider actually used the throttle XD
You guys should know what your taking about before commenting... i ride a hayabusa and that bike was not running it because it would have blown the doors off that lambo. I have raced quite a few super cars and none of them stood a chance.
that vette sounded completely badass
Damn!!!.....Corvettes are hyper-fast cars, aren't they??...it seemed to me he hit at least 200 mph at the end!
pshhhh great video and amazing cars, but i can eat lunch between shifts...
I wanted to see how fast you can shift. But ZERO car videos on your channel. Lol. 12 years later, and still no videos. Haha!
A stock busa will take a stock vette at any speed. A turbo charged busa will take any steet legal car at any speed. Don't get me wrong. I do like corvettes, alot.
I totally agree!
It is rather a rookie driver on that Busa that makes the difference.I have never met a vette on the street but even with my Z1000/07 that is REALLY classes behind the above bikes, I have not been beaten by the lambo galardo that tried to "play" with me last year. And this car is sold with 500hp as the specs say.
That vette is insane!!! However doubt it could beat the Busa, somethings not right here lol.
Thats great but just so you're aware, down a 1/4 mile drag race the Hayabusa (the fastest production bike atm is the BMW S1000RR) would smoke a Bugatti veryon. The Veryrons official time is 9.7 seconds while the Turbo Hayabusa is 9.28. Oh and when it comes to price, the Hayabusa is about $20,000 whilst the Veyron is $2,400,000. Now do the math, you could spend $35,000 at max to go 430km/h or $2.4million.
