The "World's First Car, Boat, Motorcyle Race"
First of all, we have to warn you. This is AWESOME! Here's the concept. Take a Honda powered Formula 4-Stroke race boat, a Honda Works Fireblade motorcyle, and a Honda F1 car. Pit them all against each other on a single quarter mile track at London City Airport. I love the way the English think.
I don't want to spoil it for you, but if you guessed the F1 car beat the other two by a significant margin, you're right. The motorcycle was close, sort of, due to it's pretty good weight to power ratio. Motorcyles are for the most part by design, an engine with a seat on it. Yet it was still no match for the F1 car and its V10 engine and even better power to weight ratio.
All in all, a really fun segment to watch. I won't give you any more details, just watch, and enjoy.
