GT-R vs Sportbike at Tail of the Dragon 9-16-20

[@ampedracing4321]

I had no clue you were filming. This is me Brittany. Most know me as @R3AMPUTEE. I actually am an amputee and a female lol. This is awesome. Thank you so much!

[@Whiffer18]

You were frickin" awesome! To all those who think you have to cross the yellow to be fast, I invite you to watch this young lady.

[@vtecp8618]

Well done ! ! Amp also, I'm so damn impressed i don't know what to say.... I'm gonna watch it again ! Thank you both for a great video.

[@cbxrman]

Nice riding.

[@135john135]

Bad azz👍

I said kudos to the guy fer saying him 'or' her, and you are a her after all! As a fan of Jianna Salinas - way to go

[@jmiddle818]

You ain't catching this girl. She's fast as fuck brother. She's an awesome young woman that's a friend. She is one of the bravest people I know. And she has a beautiful soul too.

[@SALTxTHExWOUND]

Title should be “GT-R vs Girl on a Yamaha R3” solid video, she’s hard to keep up with 😅😅💯 😂

[@pk-ui6cp]

Yeah, she's a beast, but what amazed me even more, is how fast is Chuck on his onboard compared to those of Brittany, another planet, I have no idea how scary it must be to see it from the outside... For those two seconds before it bleeds you haha

[@vancejones7698]

This is beautiful. I love the aspect that you didn't add music to it, just the engine sounds. That was always one of my favorite things to do, be behind a talented rider/driver. Pure poetry in motion. Definitely one of the better videos that I've watched.

[@willl7780]

yes

[@Music-pq8cm]

For those 4 wheel drivers, realize the Moto has 2 contact patches a little over the size of a credit card and because this is a public road must leave a little wiggle room for the random dirt, oil or squirrel. Also, the speed isn’t enough to warm up the tires to their optimal temps. So he/she isn’t riding a race pace. Driving w 4 wheels/tires we take things for granted the Moto can’t afford to disregard.

[@lowcountrydawg2525]

Thank you for commenting on lane discipline. I have been riding and driving up there for years and lane discipline is of critical importance!

[@yuniw5023]

A video full of wholesomeness, kudos to both of you for the lane discipline (well u cut mayos from time to time, but long as its not mustard). The biker had multiple chances to pass the slow trucks in front of her and left you behind if she wanted to like most bikers would do, instead she waited for them to pull over, a true local warrior who respect local traffic as well as she’d like u to chase her for an epic run! Moment of mutual respect between you two as well!

[@scottbrummett4915]

Excellent riding/driving. I’ve got lots of hours on the Dragon and love to see talent, hate to see carnage. Stay safe✊🏻

[@Damnealas]

One of the best vids! I like how you hang back upon traffic, give the rider his space! Not sure about the video quality but some excellent driving/riding from both of you!

[@leuvenlife]

That was indeed a sweet ride. From both of you. Where I was born the roads are like that everywhere, it's heavenly for riding or driving, now where I live, the roads are all straight. I was right in there with you for that ride. Thanks.

[@r3amputee]

I was told this video was popping back up! I love this 😊 hopefully we can ride again soon!!

[@TheDfelan]

Amazing riding. Just curious are you a local or are you that good just visiting? GTR was killing it too, car sounded amazing.

[@r3amputee]

@@TheDfelan I was born and raised here.

[@russelltally2353]

Fantastic riding @R3AMPUTEE! Would be sweet if you had video from your perspective to go with this video. What one word came to my mind while watching? FREEDOM!

[@HillbillyonaYZ]

I'm sure the photographers know the rider. You don't just go visit the Dragon on a weekend and ride like that. It takes some years of learning the road, not to mention some gym time to ride a bike like that. That was beautiful to watch. Thank you!!

[@jakegarrett8109]

Going to the gym is probably good, but that was also a female with an amputation, so just pointing out its more of a mental and skill game than brute strength.

[@allandawson7394]

That's some impressive driving Doug, both two and four wheel. Love the exhaust note on the GT-R! Are those Michelin Cup tires, look awful sticky!

[@Whiffer18]

Yessir...cup2's.

[@Chris-Brauch]

Excellent video. Great driving/riding! It’s always hard to appreciate on video how fast you are going because when you’re at the dragon it’s a unique experience and video never shows how tight those corners really are!

[@Whiffer18]

Y’all need to keep in mind this is a public road and while access to it is somewhat limited, because of its popularity, there is still a lot of traffic on it with many people not accustomed to either driving fast on curvy roads or, allowing for others’ mistakes. I can assure you that if you were a passenger with me on this road, you wouldn’t be comfortable going any faster.

[@semisolaire5866]

It's a much more intimidating road in person than in this video. I've witnessed plenty of people not up for the ride along after 1 pass. Props to you for showing some clean driving

[@9011combo]

Just watched the video, thsnk you for sharing, that's an awesome chase!!

[@noelcatanzaro3405]

Great video ! Thanks for staying in your lane ! Thanks for sharing. I would have thought the car could have cornered better than that ? Great riding as well !

[@hishaammatthewsCPT]

It ha been proven cars corner after than bikes. But that lady bike driver is on point. E deserves big respect

[@eddohan]

Probably what he/she was thinking: "He, a GTR, lets see what he's got" ^^ Edit: Lane discipline is not only counting for her. You keep it nice between the lines aswell! Fast safe driving ;)

[@Whiffer18]

Lol… I never thought of it that way. When predator becomes prey…😜

[@typhoon-7]

I was thinking if this was here (UK) both would be using racing lines when you could see nobody was coming the other way and we wouldn't have waited for the truck to pull over, just gone around. Roads like this where I live (Scottish Highlands) are brilliant to drive even in my diesel pickup.

[@speedstylez1243]

Bad ass! @R3AMPUTEE was hauling it. Great driving from both rider and driver. 👌

[@nickconley4098]

This is what safe fun driving and riding looks like awesome video.

[@Paul-mq5yn]

Nice driving. Is the engine stock? sounds like it comes on boost so quick

[@kraigd2106]

That was fantastic. As many have said, great job staying in your lane and being thoughtful to innocent oncoming traffic. I ride the dragon all the time and nothing is more terrifying than coming around a blind corner and seeing a car or bike in my lane. This is a public road not a private race track. Enjoy the spirited ride or drive just be safe. PS car sounds awesome.

[@enlightenedidiot9552]

Not a surprise that a sport bike wins in the straights, but that corner speed? Against a GTR? WOW, PERIOD...

[@RideFree317]

Its actually a Yamaha R3 300cc engine . Very skilled rider not just relying on the power from a larger sport bike

[@francescodefelice6650]

What a memorable day !!!i love this road!!! Me an my body Jimi we had so much fun together one next to another!!! They did such a great job the pro photographers!!! Now ones again we going beck July 25th to August 1 . Cheers 🥂

[@AnonW]

I don't think it matters whether ur car is 0-60 in under 3s, in these twisty roads, it's all about light weight, cornering ability and how much momentum u can carry through.

[@edwardsadler6003]

This guy gets his money's worth from the bike, most bikes are way better than the rider will ever be. This guy and the bike are a perfect match for each other.

[@alexcusma4908]

This guy apparently is a girl, and to top it off she’s an amputee. I’m still in total shock!

[@TwoGunz2008]

Very good sportsmanship and excellent ride from the biker and the driver :), Thanks for posting.

[@BamBamZ_Gaming]

Awesome, I love a good play with a car or another bike that's fast. My best one so far was a gt3 vs my hayabusa on the old pacific hwy nsw Australia from the slab to the top past lemmings.

[@MsTheCops]

Dang ...that was so nice. Great driving to you BOTH! Sad y'all didn't get to meet the rider.

[@stephanddd]

I enjoyed watching the mutual respect. You're both better drivers than I am. I think there were a couple of spots where the biker could have pulled away, but he enjoyed your company :)

[@robertsullivan4773]

Chasing from behind is always problematic if the lead is fast. The secret is to forget them and totally concentrate on your run and work it.

[@GlasgowBandit]

The two greatest machines to ever do it. 🤙🏻

[@christiank7837]

I wanna rip here so badly! Do cops just not petrol this road frequently, or is it something to keep in the back of your head?

[@renaissanceman7145]

The local cops are well aware of the reputation their little stretch of road has. They also have a good idea as to the number of people who come from all over each year just to ride the gap. Most importantly, they know exactly how many crashes, injuries and deaths occur each year on that stretch of road. So, law enforcement officers patrolling Deals Gap isn't something I'd recommend be kept "in the back of your head". It should be front and center along with all of the variables you must deal with to safely ride/drive the gap. Weather conditions, traffic conditions, road conditions, condition of your vehicle, knowledge of your vehicle, ability with your vehicle and your knowledge of that stretch of road, to name a few, are more important than what the cops are doing but they are still up there on the list of important things to consider and remember. Not trying to be a kill joy. I too enjoy high speeds, twisty bits and motorcycles. I even enjoy twisty bits at high speeds on a motorcycle. Regardless, just as we see with every other govt. agency, the departments/agencies responsible for patrolling Deals Gap are growing, increasing their presence, writing more tickets, increasing their revenue through fines, allowing them to hire more officers, so they can patrol more, to write more tickets... To do it "right" you'll need a minimum of 3 people/vehicles and the ability for all 3 to be in constant contact with each other. #1 leads the pack, watching for and alerting to any LEO, with a time gap that allows for them to make the trip at the posted speed limit and not be passed by #2, who is not concerned with the limit, followed by #3 who also watches/alerts regarding LEO and holds up traffic a little bit. Of course this is after the 3 of you have driven/ridden the gap together at the posted speed limit at least 100 times each way so that you all know each turn like the back of your hand. All the best!

I was on the same portion of the road on my VF1000R(R) Vance and Hines Elgi-framed Honda, phenolic on the asphalt, just right of center on the lane feeling all bad-ass and... ...a 600 CBR comes UNDER me on the paint. License plate: I FLY Yeah, no sh*t. No mistaking it was a woman. Pre-Sir Mix a Lot perfect, knee hanging in thin air because there was no asphalt under it! Gone. I feel for ya, dude.

[@holdernewtshesrearin5471]

Dude is good! Keeping a very fast pace while always maintaining his lane. Very highly skilled rider and a SAFE one too! I miss the mountains so bad! I lived in Blueridge for 4 years, right off of hwy 60 and rode the mountain roads every day. Hwy 60 South East to Suches and take hwy 180 North up to Vogel State Park and Hwy 129. Id tear down the mountain turn around at the bottom, come back up and then take 129 all the way through Blairsville, into Murphy,NC and on to the Dragons tail. We would spend an hour or so playing and then take the express route home. Did it every weekend and many times, every day. Theres no one on the road at noon on a Tuesday. Then time to grill steaks, have a great dinner then lounge by the fire with a cold beer and a bottle of red wine for the little lady. We would talk until the sun came up every Friday night. Wish i could go back in time. Id never leave that period. The North Georgia mountains will always be my home.

It is not about out breaking, it is about the grip in the corners. That GTR have four wide tyres to grip with and a bike can't compete against that. But on the straight you're a bit slow. Thanks for sharing your nice video.

Not only lane discipline, but not crossing lines to pass. Being, (on average) lighter-weight humans, do skilled womenfolk riders have an advantage transitioning from side-to-side?

[@wilmafistfit9355]

Most moto gp riders are small. I think a lot of women can out ride the men, but there is a reason you only see men moto gp. It would be great to see a female come up the ranks and race with them one day and not impossible. A girl that grew up in my hometown was one of the best riders in the country and was beating the boys all the time.

The control of the bike laying down using counter steering is aswome. If you get into a conner and it tightens up on you. You better understand counter steering or it's guard rail for lunch.

Used to live in NC and would pick people up at the airport from TN in a little porsche .For some reason I always had to slow way down but usually to late they already turned green and sick. Will admit I can't be passenger either. But fun road . Road a ZX1400 also.

[@mikewoods6746]

Rode from Sturgis to Yellowstone 3 crouch rockets passed me racing each other, met up with them at the park , gave them shit for giving riders a bad name riding like fools got to know each other over night exchanged numbers (2 out of the 3 crouch riders were women) they left for Arizona in the morning, one of the girls crashed and died that day racing through the mountains. Racing on unfamiliar roads isn't smart. This gift of life is to short to waste like that. RIP

I have rode and driven both Hot Cars and very fast bikes over the years and the one thing I won't encourage is wanna b Ricky racing after a bike in a 4 wheel anything. Every time you stepped off and over thought that right white line and track onto the shoulder leaves potential to drag little rocks and crap from the edge. The last thing Girls and Guys on Fast Sport bikes like to encounter on rides like these are little pebbles and crap to disrupt that finite line between " Yeee Haaw and Oh Shit debris ".
