  • I like the part where they turn.

  • Aaron, that is called trail braking. Good riders know how to pull it off.

  • impressive. but it often looks like the rider is braking/downshifting whilst cornering.. i thought that was a quick way to eat dirt? anyone care to explain

  • Never ride a bike in W Virginia

  • @Bossk333 Why not?

  • Great run. +1 on the safe driving as well.

  • im waiting for a deer to jump out

  • These guys are good.

  • i got dizzy!

  • Good driving ?

    Car looks far too tight when entering corners & braking far too much :(

  • should have bought an sti

  • @WordsCondemnMinds meh there basically the same .....depending on the driver both can do extremely well

  • the only reason he doesnt pass is because the car takes up the whole lane

  • The evo driver is awesome, bare in mind they are playin on the roads and are doing so fairly safely. Respect the roads, these guys kinda did, so fair play to you.

    Awesome vid nice sounds too! my friend has got a 450bhp evo4 and Ill either be on the zx6r 2010 or gsxr 600 2011, so hopefully I can show you some similar vids.

    They wont be quite as skilled as this though lol.

    Stay within your limits and stay safe.

  • lol, at you all for saying the car needs to give way. did it ever once creep into your puny little minds that the two are friends and one is filming the other? seriously people why not ask questions before throwing out the daggers. notice one thing in this video that you won't see in a lot of others on the gap. he stays in HIS LANE. you drive it that fast while doing that. most of you CANT. deals gap gsxr750 with sti needs to watch this and see how to drive the road.

  • Hey mate , what tyres are you running .?.....For some of you out there ,dont think you can ride this hard on shit tyres...they play a big part.. Stay upright bro.

  • @motorcycledude1000 There are pictures of this guy on the R6 forum dragging his elbow. I can just make out tire treads. His bike still has the racing numbers on it while on the Gap.

  • This video proves how bad the driver of the EVO is. If you drive an EVO properly, there aren't many cars/bikes that could keep up with it on roads like that.

  • @12389h Many of Deals Gap's turns are so tight they make a car push that doesn't normally push. They also make most cars (mine) fall out of the power in the gap b/t 1st & 2nd gears. It really shows not how slow Killboy or an Evo is, but how fast that particular R6 can run the Gap. It is geared down, has real soft tires plus a talented rider who can drag his elbow 3' from a cliff. I have seen him. Very fast. No shame if you can't outrun him. Fastest I've seen there, car or bike.

  • @britishbikes12 Sorry, I spoke only on my knowledge based watching the video and the video description.

    Thank you for clearing that up.

  • @12389h I understand where you're coming from. Unless you spend a lot of time in certain twisties, or a race track, you aren't gonna see many guys like these. You'd be surprised at how fast that car is really going. If you can get a "reading" on the lean angle... 45 degrees = 1g cornering.

  • @britishbikes12 I guess it only looks slow because the R6 is doing similar speeds. But you can see the Evo going right to edge of the road. Clipping almost every apex. I guess I'm going to have to retract my first statement!

  • @12389h Not everyone is a race car driver you fucking idiot.

  • @mattyoz0 The Evo is probably the easiest car at the limit, with its advanced systems like AYC. You don't need to be racing driver to take a car to its limit. Plus if you read some of my previous comments, I admit I was wrong. I bet you feel like an idiot right now.

  • @12389h Oh yeah i feel like such an idiot.

  • @12389h this car didn't have ayc

  • @DJMC5ive You can corner a lot faster with AYC. I don't think that was a wise move by the owner, especially on roads like that.

  • That road looks like fun.

  • What are you callin an EVO looks like another jap crap car  followed by a jap crap riceburner!!!

  • lol that evo driver is going way to slow if it were me it would be a good fight for the R6

  • Rider is a lot faster everywhere especially on corners... the evo needs to give way.

  • Evo needs to give way to faster bike.

  • This isn't a race, if someone is in your mirrors this much they are faster. The driver of the Evo should have given the bike a point by.

  • Lol the car looks like it's drifting because of the camera angles.

  • @nnamssorxela I dont see anywhere in the vid I posted in my answer that the evo was running a stroker engine or a big turbo. My appologies if its urs, otherwise ur just blowing smoke. Not dissin either mitsus nor bikes, just a fact that a fairly lightly modified 4g63 can keep up with a 600cc bike at highway speeds and in a straight line

  • What a crap driver!

  • Good thing the speed limit is 65 mph at Deals Gap.

  • car is holding the bike up.

  • Ha, ha, that's one slow EVO driver. I could have easily bee me :) Good riding by the bike rider. I remember a run like that a while back. That looked a lot lime my old EVO VIII MR and the slow driving looks like mine Ha, ha, ha!

  • Is that the Killboy Lancer? If so I know the guy can drive he practically lives on that road.

  • 68,524 views and only 100 of us voted, sad. this is a great vid thanks for the posting

  • The EVO driver was being relatively conservative. He definitely wasn't pushing it very hard. The EVO has an advantage in the corners due to the high lateral grip. But the R6 has a huge power to weight advantage in the straights. Looked like it would have been fun from either vehicle.

  • i love my bikes, ride all the time and run em at the track, but here's to all of you talking smack about evos...this one's pretty stock with full exhaust, intake and reflash running a r6 /watch?v=JcjTmUoocRo

  • @balkanvt I wouldn't call an evo with a 2.3L motor and gt40 running 30psi "pretty stock."

  • MMMM looks like killboys EVO

  • WHY DO WHITE BOYS ALWAYS MAKE FUN OF JAPANESE BIKES AND CARS BUT YET ALSO LOVE IT? thats the weirdest shit ever

  • So..How does it feel being stuck behind a slow driver?

  • Yeh, it was unfortunate but bikes generally are much faster on single lane roads.. They have that much more space for error compared 2 cars!

    The evo wouldn't dare cross the double yellows :P

  • Great video!

  • this is video is definitely sped up...

  • @Clutchisback1 nice english

  • @matthewrockslol22 thank you...i went to school...

  • The evo driver is scared. I could get down that road in my wife's accord coupe faster than that.

  • @JCSteinmeyer Your an idiot... Just dont try, you will end up hurting yourself or someone else

  • nice video, respect to both, specially for staying in your lane around corners, boys.

    but i must say the evo driver, is definitely going easy on that car,

    + Bike sounds crazy!

    & what mods did the evo have? seems like a standrad evo, on sticky rubber and possibly bigger pipe?

  • What a great video, much respect to DealsGapR6 and Killboy, you have both shown that you can be fast while respecting other road users. I see nothing but great driving and riding in this video

  • lets be real here... that evo driver is quite well known, why be coy... thats also not his best game, for the record

  • The Evo driver sucks. Video should have been Evo trying to follow bike at Deal's Gap. You should have passed.

  • Crossing the double yellow on 129 is a damn good way to get your ass kicked. The locals dont take too kindly to such behavior....

  • another great road is Arizona 89A, Arizona, USA. very curvy, more than this one but not a long. only about 10 miles. and it would be awesome to hold a drifting event on one of these roads.

  • idiot on the R6 cant even stay in his own lane

  • $40,000 vs $6,000, id rather have 7 bikes

  • @football38 since when is the evo 40 thousand dollars

  • its weird seeing the evo turn from the r6's view, looks like hes drifting every turn haha. and no hes not asking to get killed. he only crosses the double line when he can see enough infront of him that it doesnt matter. i went there not too long ago in my 08 lancer gts, my girlfriend was freaking out because i was getting so close to the cliff of the mountain haha

  • 90% of the comments of this video are a joke. The only skill in this vid is the Evo which im 99% sure is killboy. Watch and see how many times he crosses the double yellow, none. I've been there many times bike and car, its a tough crazy road. R6 is asking to get killed

  • Comment removed

  • @ksmith05gsxr600 pfff, riding an R6 through there at the same speed as the evo requires more skill, you obviously don't know a whole lot about bikes. I've had both an evo and a R6, I can drive an evo fast through the twisties with less skill and effort than I need on the R6.

  • he has to have toyo proxes lol

  • At least the guy in the car stays in his lane.

  • The Evo needs to get out of the way. Or speed up

  • driver of the evo is a total amateur you guys should really take this to the track very dangerous and reckless

  • there needs to be music, but still engine sound. can't videos find a sweet middle???

  • @scotch123bright The engine sound is the music, Shut up

  • @JSSV i fuckin totally agree.

  • @928baller I fucking to-fucking-ally agree as fucking well... Fucking

  • shit im dizzy. thats right, i'm a driver, not a rider :P

  • evo driver is noob ;) i love bikes <3

  • yeah don't buy it itthat evo isn't going full stick sti and evo will give an R6 a run in a straight line on a run like this should be able to leave it behind

  • @spike12225 disagree about the straight line, tbh the evo would be left for dead, but take it to the curves the evo should be able to hold its own and more.

  • @LilleyAdam mate has an 04 sti pretty standard and until 4th it runs pretty even to an R6

  • No reason to pass. It's not a racetrack.

  • Lol, since that R6 can follow that car, there's no reason for the bike to overtake it. Its prooven that he can go near it in a few seconds. Only thing, the car driver is weak! Totally! I mean, come on, a Mitsubishi Evo? Its made for cornering and especially on roads like that.

  • @barrenwizard Got to remember though could just be kids with smart heads, knowing that there not a race car drive.. And not wanting to flip or break there nice car hehe... Still could have gone faster though... Lol

  • great vid and no stupid risky maneuvers like you see in other vids =] good job

    there are some people that know how to enjoy a good road after all

  • Sweet! :P

  • seems the car driver is testing his brake lights alot hehe...

    nice ride bro!

  • This Blows

    

  • good rider but as far as the evo i could take my 93 sentra around those bends faster.

  • shit car driver!!!!!!!!!

  • modded evo should eat the bike in the twisties driver doesn't look any good though.

  • rider can ride.... driver cant drive.... thats my personal oppinion, as a rider myself i know for a fact cars can kick my ass on corners due to the lack of 2 extra tires... i think the evo could of gone alot faster round these corners before he even started to slide

  • Dude can ride!!

  • This video is dope.

  • coolll...

  • I would have named this video, "Skill vs. Frustration"

  • @ghostdoghaelo what? you think driving a car in the canyons is easier than a bike?

  • @lkdot006 yes?

  • good vid good rider all over that evo! I think I have faster vids myself (on my page) but the car vs bike is more interesting.

  • think my husaberg would show a clean pair of heals

  • think my husaberg 650 sm would show them a clean pair of heals

  • wow! I'm so proud with R6!!! it can keep up with a better handling car than Lambo without pushing it hard! <3

  • Nice!! I would love to see footage form onboard the Evo!

    I took a video this past weekend onboard my VW but I lost brakes half way so I had to slow a bit :( ...car still smells like brakes...nice!

  • What a great road

  • To the rider: that was a very fine piece of work, top stuff. I think you have a particularly good front tyre on there, you seemed to get in very deep.

  • Two great pilots, awesome footage here!

  • They did about 10 of the 11 miles in 10 min. Avg speed 60 mph. Killboy is in the EVO and he DEFINATLY kows the road.

  • I got an adrenaline rush just from watching GREAT VIDEO!!! driving 5 hours next weekend to meet the dragon in my porsche cayman S cant wait!!!

  • Who cares about the fastest vehicle? It was cool to watch. Great driving and riding. Lets see more!!!!

  • this would have been a good time to meet a truck with a 53' trailer !

  • if deer or a bear pops out of wood, you would be fucked

  • What?  Proper fucked???

    Urgh!

  • haha just found myself turning my head in every corner

  • That bike would have kicked it's ass if he weren't in the way all the time, if he had a gsx-r750 he'd have passed him at the beginning, but the evo did well considering.

  • right... the bike might but I'd put money on it the rider couldn't.

  • Dude, You should change the name to following modified evo. The R6 would walk off from the Evo.

  • you just dont want to believe it because you probably have an r6

  • Dude, I wouldn't want anything less than an R1 thank you... I've ridden the Gap enough and enough crotch rockets to know an stock R6 would waste your Evo... Keep On Rolling....Wild Ride either way-cool...

  • whatever dude keep dreaming. Why dont you stop bench racing and go out and ride.

  • Why don't you GROW A SET OF BALLS, AND GET A MOTOCYCLE???...

  • @ronniemegertonn for a half second

  • @suicidesucks08 Yeah, after 1/2 second the R6 would be outta sight my man,OUTTA SIGHT.

  • @ronniemegertonn Don't underestimate that rider. He was pretty fast.

  • the guy in the car missed every single apex on the right side...but did great on the left side

  • This would be a lot more interesting if the bike was in front and the evp tried catching up.

  • Dude, the guy on the bike would be at the store eating a sandwich waiting on the dude in the four wheeler.

  • Be EXCITING because it would be Bike Only.... The four wheeler would be about 2.875 miles behind....

  • Killboy that you?

  • I'm really impressed with the evo, but who isn't impressed with an evo? lol

    can't wait to get a bike and go checc out the dragon!!!

  • wow. I'm impressed with this car.

  • Just another squid with a deathwish.

  • He's not a squid if he can ride like that, but yes he has a deathwish.

  • yeah i live in robbinsville about 12 miles from the dragon so i have been on it ever since i was little i actually know the guy in that evo its killboy and trust me hes not giving all he has he can ride that ride in a bike or a car it doesnt matter thats the guys job lol the bike doesnt stand a chance killboy is mean on the dragon

  • yeah lol...i live in bryson and i totally agree

  • great video just it would be better if the rider kept his bike on his side of the road if a car can there's no reason for the bike to cross the double yellow

  • That's gotta be Killboy (Darryl). I still remember trying to stay with him on his ZX6 on the Gap. Insane fast, and knows every inch of the Gap.

  • If you watch where the biker crosses the double yellows, its where he's prepping to go into a right hander, and if you know about riding, you know that he'd be looking well ahead of the Evo as well as watching it so that he knew there was nothing coming the other way. But otherwise, it's a great vid, the biker could have left the Evo if he was in front, the Evo was driven well, but not that smootly, however, could be driven faster in the right hands I reckon.

  • the driver in the EVO has respect for the road, and the safety of other drivers by not crossing the double yellow. I was driving on it yesterday, and the ass hole bikers always cross the line, idoits.

  • that r6 is just getting wound up. the bad sound quality makes it sound like its taching out. R6 rider is decent. Missed a few of the apexs in the beginning and definently could be pushing it harder. That R6 would smoke that Evo.

  • I noticed that the rider was hitting the limiter here and there too. Maybe he should have thought about upping a gear.

  • The R6 rider had pretty good throttle control & I think he did great in the curves. The evo was on the brakes a little too much. True about the revs - R6 tops out at 15,500 rpm and he wasn't there yet.

  • hehehe -- isn't that one of killboy's cars? heheh

  • I lover the driver of the evo for never crossing the double yellow.

  • he does cross it at one point but gets back over right away

  • i own bolth an evo and an r6s bolth are alot of fun..a stock evo only needs a good set of tires to make a mountain run hard on a r6 i race auto cross and i dabble with my street bike on a track.. the rider in this video is good as well dumb but good.he gets down in the turns he knows his bike but i think the r6 would out run this evo in a strait..im guesing max hp on evo to be maybe 350 400...thats low 12s my car make 550 at the wheels and im just starting to keep up with r6s on the straits.

  • This is when bikers get killed!!!!

  • yep, this is how you eat the back of a car at 90+ mph. SHot the video the other way around where its the evo chasing the bike... if you know how to ride the evo will loose every time.

  • WHAT! you ride yourself? thats sick man

  • yes jeremy, however, bikes mainly outhandle STOCK cars. this evo isnt gonna keep up if its stock. and plus its all driver/rider skill level

  • A stock sportscar will pull more Gs and go around a skidpad faster than a well-ridden stock sportbike. Bikes LOOK faster because they're smaller and more dynamic when they turn, but it's just an illusion.

    Where bikes truly dominate over cars is acceleration. (stock for stock, exotic multi-million $ supercars excluded) On open tracks this is a great equalizer, but on a very tight road like the Dragon, there isn't as much time for that acceleration advantage to pay off.

  • only r1s and cbr1000rr

    my dad beat a r6 in s sht subs wrx

  • Cool Vid. I plan to get my Evo down there this summer. Doubt I get to spirited in my driving though. Do not want trouble with the law.

  • We must live in alternate universes then, because over here in mine, that is not a fact. Not by a long shot, dude.

  • Right...that is why nearly every track record is held by a car.

    And you are also wrong to assume a car has to "straighten up" before accelerating...in fact it's quite the opposite. Especially an AWD car. That is the ONE area where I do have the advantage over the bikes, and everyone is amazed at how early I get on the gas in a turn.

    *Driver in vid. I also ride/own several sportbikes.

  • terrible driving in the car.But the motorcycle would eat that thing alive.Saw kevin Schwantz race a porsche GT3 and lose though so anything is possible.Of course it was a pure bred race car versus stock GSX-R750.

  • I would bet that there are less than a handful of people on the face of this planet that could run The Dragon that fast and stay in their lane... Killboy FTW....

  • The car is much wider, and is staying IN his lane..

  • *no

  • bikes do doubt for straights but, 4WDs for corners FTW!

  • The 600 could have overtaken and a 1000 would have left this cage far behind.

  • 600 is a better bike than a 1000 for riding twistys.

  • adamtw6, I would agree if the twisties were tight enough.

  • race? for the car driver maybe

    for the biker, "getoutofmyway getoutofmyway getoutofmyway getoutofmyway getoutofmyway getoutofmyway getoutofmyway getoutofmyway" sounds a bit more accurate

  • THAT WAS B A D A S S !!!! wouldnt u like to shut traffic down in one direction for a day? awesome vid. where were all the cops?

  • well...it was the same shot for 10 min...wish I could go to the deals sometime. I think the trees are really nice there this time of year. I have a lot of trees here, but they don't have much color on them. Anyway...goin to go make some popcorn.

  • wow evo's corner like monsters

  • It just shows that 2 people can have a bit "sport" together without driving like dicks and putting other peoples lifes at risk,nice vid

  • That might be the Killboy Evo, hes a really nice guy

  • great driving great riding great vid

  • wtf road

  • Deals Gap, North Carolina

  • Both drivers (car and bike) are awesome. Any tips on cornering on a bike? Cool videos!

  • Practice and tracktime if possible. Take your time learning, but do anything over and over and you WILL get better at it eventually. ;)

  • Do you and your friends have track experience or just self taught on the road and over time? Cool videos, I live near. I'm still learning everytime I get on my bike. Just bought my first 600 a few months ago.

  • Mostly just running the road a LOT. We've both done many trackdays on bikes, and DealsGapR6 starting racing WERA this year. (and is sucking up the 1st place trophies like the phenom that he is ;) I've never done a trackday with the car though.

  • Fantastic road. But that's not Deal's Gap. What road is it? I want to run it.

  • ...I give up.

  • Haha...you're right, we have no idea what we're talking about...we just live there. Thanks for educating us though.

  • Sorry DealsGapR6 and Killboy...I thought my SARCASM was very self evident.

    Thanks for the pictures last weekend Killboy. We are going to buy a CD soon. Just getting our various trips to the Dragon collected.

    We missed you giving the Rotary Rally a talk about driving the tail. Make sure you look us up next year.

  • Oh sorry DRTH, never can tell on these things. Black Rx8? We ended up with company Friday night, plus I was beat from working on the bigwheel all day. ;) Hope you all had fun!
