What a Car!

Just finished cleaning the car & went out for a quick blast to dry the brakes off. I was waiting at a roundabout & a Suzuki TL1000R pulled up beside me & he nodded, either in appreciation or was wanting a challenge; I took it to be the latter & booted it onto a half mile stretch of duel carriageway. To my amazement the RS kept up with the bike, he was only about a car length in front of when he had to brake for the next roundabout; I then flew past him before I had to jump on the brakes.
After owning the car for 6 months now it still impresses me with the sheer performance, I have defiantly found my perfect car!
:D

He couldn't have been trying, as a 1000 cc motorbike will smash a RS4 in a drag race!

I have a few speed markers on certain local roads and my GSXR1000 is way ahead,TL1000 is fairly slow by todays standards though,a good 600 will give it some hassle

Reckon the TL1000 would still kick an RS4s arse - unless its wet!!
