lol yup, some of the cars in the first vid a seriously fast. Then in the second one it shows what kind of speed the guys cope with whilst talking to their mates on the radio and twiddling with nobs on the steering wheel, or as in last years case for some, going through bends at speed one handed

Good find! You also get similar results between video and real life! This video was taken by me at maggots/becketts last year the Friday before billing, in real life it was double the speed, then there's the noise! Literally do pop your ears! They hand out ear defenders at the gates!

180-190 MPH is quick, (scary quick on a bike) but that wont touch them F1 cars, especially in the corners.

Grr just wrote big reply then got timed out! lol

Basically there both amazing fast vids to compair real speed etc, and i think you have to be either very exceptional as a person or not right in the head to compete in both sports!
