Impressive footage on the M3 GTR! For minute there, I thought the driver got bored of the race track and decided to take the scenic road, up until he came up behind the red porche(?).

To be honest, if you take the top of the line Beemer to the top of the line race bike, say a Ducati... the bike will always out perform. And yes, a Ducati race bike corners better.

I'm just happy the my thumper (1 cylinder motorcycle) has enough torque to beat a Beemer off the line at a stop light. And just like Leebs, some of the car ads really get to me. Such as BMW ads. The one where middle aged guy zooms down a little back road banks it into his driveway, gets out of the car and checks his pulse. Mimicking his neighbor who just went jogging. The BMW ad failed to show all the cars that the guy tailgated 2 inches off the bumper and the neighborhood kids he ran off the road while their riding bicycles. Not everyone is race car driver, but BMW wants people to think they are.
