On-board at Macau, you thought Isle of Mann was nuts?

Great video on-board at Macau, the more insane street race than the Isle of Mann TT. Basically, most parts are flat out, and any mistake gets to a date with a steel guardrail. No run-off, I think there may be 1-2 hay bales. Many riders rub shoulders on those guard rails.

The bike is a BMW S1000RR.

That S*** looks crazy
 
crazy ****...! Atleast Isle of Mann got open space at some turns, Macau is instant death every corner...

I'd have to disagree. Atleast Macau is a constant guard rail that runs along the track, you probably wouldn't hit it head on, instead on an angle that would gently :lmao: push you along.

Isle of Mann has curbs, houses, cliffs that will tear you to pieces if you screw up
 
I never knew prime advertising space would be on someone's ***!
 
My eyes are watering just looking at this...dunno how the F can some one ride like this...

And macau is short, can be at race pace in a day. The isle not so. 37 miles long.

The TT circuit definitely has more fatalities, but more people do the TT than Macau. Macau was never supposed to be a bike race, it was designed as a car circuit.

Here's Conor Cummins flying off a cliff in 2010 at the TT. These are not normal people.

You're not joking. I recall the exact same thing. Maybe if I can beat his laptime in a car in GT6 when it's out, I can do it on a bike in real life too!...and probably die trying.

EDIT: No nvm, looked at the track listings on GT5, this track has never been in the game. Some of the turns look extremely familiar though.
