It's not THAT hard to take a bike, even a very hairy sport bike starting at highway speeds. I've never had anything fast or powerful enough to do it, but when you're talking about high$$$, ultra-high HP, it's not that hard, as stated, the aero of a bike sucks, and starting at 60-70, they are at a disadvantage because they are getting ready to hit their bad aero spot. When you start talking about cars with 1000-2000hp, sure, those'll smoke most bikes.

That's the worst part, ok, you want to kill yourself, that's fine, but where they were playing there were way too many other cars and not enough space. It wouldn't take much for it to end up being catastrophic.
