Well to me they would mean TAKE YOUR FOOT OFF THE GAS and hope nothing is already broken!

Did anyone notice how he wasn't really catching up that much with the flow of traffic..

Man what motorway was that :P

What an utter *** - not only doing those sorts of speeds in traffic but also carrying on and shouting "shut up" at the car when it's trying to tell him it's lunching its own engine

Not exactly sure that was "200mph" either....

Yes thanks mate, not going too bad.
Got Prodrive springs fitted and Prodrive Geometry, plus a set of gauges since I saw you last.
Also been investing in bits and bobs here and there so I now have a Prodrive decat centre, sports cat and STI up pipe waiting to go on when I can afford a remap; just need some time to buy and fit a replacement fuel pump first, then hoping I'll be looking at about 280bhp with those mods; reckon that'll do me fine, otherwise I'll start having to upgrade brakes etc to Brembos or K-Sports if I want more!

Did he say "hopefully its just the block, not the head" ???

I'd be hoping it was just the head, as opposed to having to replace the whole block....

to be honest he didn't sound like he knew anything about what might have happened or have a clue on damage limitation.... fancy driving the thing when it was making those noises... then asking the passenger if he should turn it off and coast? I hope it was expensive LOL.

I'm not convinced it was 200mph... (and that bike looked like he was faking being maxed out)

i think if he knew his stuff he'd know not to go any further. got to be in excess of an 800bhp car. to say aswell u spend all that money on gauges to warn u an ignore it.

If he had a CockLink then he would have known his engine was shagged .... oh, hang on, you could hear it was gone

Staggering how stupid people can be - stick to your PS3 racing games kiddies - let the old boys have the roads!!

He had 3 lights flashing, a continual buzzer alarm..I think an additional cocklink light would have made little difference LOL

I wonder what the rear view was like at that moment... pretty oily and cloudy?

Maybe when the lights came on and the buzzers went he thought he'd hit 200mph?

Yep its fooked, sounds like a diesel now, well done By the way, you know all the lights and buzzers going off, it means youve got no oil pressure, engine temp is hotter than the sun and your cockometer is on full erection!!

Thats what you get for racing bikes
