RE: [ST] Cars v Bikes



I'm joining this thread late, but if this is in
reference to the R1 vs. Carerra 4 video that was
posted recently around the web...It's easy to see the
Cage has the braking advantage, braking much later and
harder into corners than the bike.  And the R1 has the
advantage accelerating out of the corners. :)
