    Forgive my ignorance and laziness (to Google and research...).

    The guy driving the Lambo, is he a professional driver? How about the rider?

    Not that it would significantly change the outcome, I think the bike would still 'win.' (Really, either way, it wins... $ for $ in terms of speed and handling, I don't think a car could ever touch a bike).

    Re: Gallardo vs. 999

    I think its to close to tell based on the actual riders as someone else pointed out. I don't think you can say a car will beat a bike in all circum stances though, if there is a long enough straight away then a car will definitely win, take most of the nascar track where average speeds are upward of 180-190 and top speeds are well over 2. A bike could rarely touch that. There are cars from the factory that could come close to those speeds, however factory bikes to touch that...I can only think of one, a turbo busa.

    Also since when does a 999 have 180bhp?

    Nascar? How about a MotoGp bike
    A nascar v a GP bike would be easy because the bike takes left and right turns

    top speed for moto gp ins 215 while nascar is 212. As mentioned a bike needs to brake slightly more then a car for turns, so I assume in an oval track a car will carry more speed out of turns thus winning the race. If we're talking about the top of the top and your talking about moto gp bikes then just compare that to an indy f1 racer, with top speeds of over 250. No Moto gp bike stands a chance unless the track happens to narrow to 3 ft at some point.
