Wow...R1s are fast. There is something I just don't really like about Japanese bikes though...

I hate those old saph cossies and what people do to them. At least get the escort cossie! Full respect to the owner for that lanuch in the video - that was awesome!

WOW,really fast Sierra.That launch was really awesome for a RWD car. I really like Sierras although they are really old cars and have very poor looking interior. But the amounts of Hp that the Cosworth engine can produce is tremendous.
Very fast car...

I'm sorry buddy, but this Ford Sierra Cosworth is definitively an AWD, check the start of the car his explains all. But you have reason, this car is very fast.

being a quattro head you got an eye for stuff like this...
|
This commentary applies to you also my friend. 8)
I did not know, that the 4WD system of the Sierra Cosworth was not reliable. Nevertheless the Sierra in GIS2 alias QVARNIS seems to be really powerful .
The only car that we had in Canada was the Ford Sierra Mercur XR4Ti. An original car for the era, especially in America.

Schwalbe the Ford in the GiS2 was not a sierra but an Escort.
As for the video you are right guys i hadn't noticed that in that "burnout" the front wheel spinned as well.
P.S: Sierra cosworth comes in RWD and 4WD not AWD.AWD is a totally different thing from 4WD except if this how 4WD is most commonly in America in which i apologise. Subaru had invented AWD first.

I know that the featured car in GIS2 was a battle between an Escort Cosworth vs the Supra, but I talk about the Sierra Cosworth of QVARNIS (FUNRUN 1) in the bonus sections of the GIS2 video.

I would say that the biker did a poor launch and caused his demise. R1 can easily beat the Corsworth, because the R1 can hit 100 km/h less than 4 sec.
