A video from Nürburgring Nordschleife, where a Porsche catshes up an Asian sportsbike. Fun to see the difference when both drives quite fast.

That was way cool!
My head is still spinning from watching that. That guy can drive and flailed that Porsche. I like when the guy on the bike looks over and waves bye-bye and then is gone. The guy in the porsche was whipping it to keep up, but eventually did. The guy on the bike was pretty dam good too.
Fun ride.

Was that an actual road or some sort of course?
Either way, the one-way traffic and banks on the turns were pretty damn cool.
Great driving too.

A car can pull more G's but the bike is hotter on the straights.

It is from the over 20 km long race track Nürburgring North loop in Germany.
The first race were hold here in 1927, the last Formula one race in 1976 as the cars was getting to fast for the safety. As ex formula one driver Jackie Stewart said once:
"The Green Hell"
Today most races are held on the newer GP track,just a long distance serie, VLN is driving both the GP and the old North loop,making it a 25 km long distance. 4, 6 and 24 hours races.
Today the North loop serve as a test track for the car industy, BMW have their M test senter there. The K1200S video was shot here.
But in the eveninigs and weekends it is open for everyone with a road legal car or bike. The number of exclusive sports cars and bikes in the pitlane is enormus.
Search for Nurburgring on Youtube, and you have hours of fun .
Here are some others of my favorites:
