Glad you caught him... I'd have been all up his ass the minute he hit me, good job keeping your cool though, I'm sure I would have had a hard time keeping my cool if that happened.

Your friend can't ride then... no offense. I don't care how twistie the road is, you could not catch me on my sportbike in your car.

The dude in the video is a tool and can't ride for crap... like others have mentioned. There is no way you would have caught a 600cc sport bike on that road if someone with decent experience was riding it. Either way, the guy was a tool and I'm glad you caught him. It's people like him that give all sportbike riders a bad reputation. He's lucky he didn't eat crap with the way he was riding.

While admit the guy on the 600rr was obviously a Noob and should be riding a bike more suited to his experience, a well driven fast car like a WRX has several advantages over a bike rider, the main one being any rider on the road should always keep a reserve for any surprises so should never be near 10/10ths ( leave that to track days ) also a WRX would out brake and with high performance tyres maintain a higher speed into most corners.

The bikes main advantages are fast riders are usually higher skilled in road craft than the majority of fast car drivers therefore better at reading the road and Supersports are faster accelerating out of corners than even a REX.

AHAAHAHA!!! Dude got on his knees and you got it on video. I think I would have bum rushed him and kicked him while he was on his bike. Easy way to get two birds with one stone.

You know what would've sucked? If he slowed down and you rear ended him and it killed him. Over a minor hit and run....

Glad you got him, I guess I missed the memo about once you deploy flying off your bike and into a tree does not effect you. I guess no one told the guys we lose every other week doing similar things on bikes that are way too big for their skill level.

Why would that of sucked? If he had just clipped me and tried to run that probably would be my goal. If he is going to run over something small like this $10 says he would run if he hit a person and let them die in the street.

this is me after 8 months of riding... some ppl have it some dont just like how i could drag knee and fly through turns but couldnt master the balance point of a wheelie but my friends could not take turns like me but could ride wheelies all day.
