Grand Rapids is a nice middle ground.

Not sure where the excitement about the Z06 driver comes from. Straight line against an older bike?!?!?

There are plenty of legitimate tests that show there are no cars that will beat a modern 1000cc sport bike up to approximately 190mph. For example: Ultra HD 4K Rolling RACE BMW S1000RR vs Bugatti Veyron Vitesse -presented by Samsung - YouTube



I couldn't tell what kind of bike it was either. I couldn't find any comments on the youtube page that could provide clarification.

It doesn't really make any difference what bike it was. As I stated above, vehicle to vehicle the result is clear. Any other result is the product crappy small bike, crappy rider, crappy driver, etc.

Now, if the C7 was a fully modified twin turbo with 1300rwhp.....

Based on this video, the following cars would beat that bike:

Agera R, Koen****segg one, Ultimate Aero TT, hennessey venom GT.



The Agera R pulled that much on the veyron SS after giving it a head start.

Liter bikes are pretty much unbeatable outside those cars unless you have an Alpha Omega GTR or a really powerful TT Gallardo.
