And here s where you get blown away, the Kawasaki Ninja H2 with ram air, weighs 524. 7lbs, and has 210 horsepower, which is a power to weight of 2. 5 lbs/hp. Even something not as crazy and more normal like my 2012 ninja Zx6r, has a weight of 421. 2lbs and has 130. 52 HP, for a power to weight of 3. 2lbs/hp. And THAT, ladies and gentlemen, is why your 2015 m5 that you think will outrun everything on the road, weighing 4, 387lbs with 575hp, has a power to weight of 7. 6lbs/hp and still gets walked by a regular 2010 s 600cc motorcycle up until about 100-125mph

I always thought the global standard for measuring power to weight ratio was bhp/ton. That's why it's power/weight ratio.
Top Gear used to spew out power to weight ratio numbers everytime they compared something to the veyron, somehow I just remember hearing Clarkson's voice going on about 500 bhp/ton, Caterhams and whatever.

Probably one of the most entertaining Donut videos in a while. Not to say the others weren't entertaining but this one was just insane to follow. Keep up the good work when you guys get back from your well-deserved break (and a certain milestone. (and a b2b on the bloodhound would be nice: )

For all you metric folks, here's a quick conversion chart in order of each car:
3378 lbs = 1532 kg
1896 lbs = 860 kg
8600 lbs = 3900 kg
2813 lbs = 1275 kg
1213 lbs = 548 kg
2328 lbs = 1056 kg
3685 = 1671 kg
850 lbs = 386 kg
2999 lbs = 1380 kg
14158 lbs = 6422 kg

Funny fact subaru 360 young SS a kei car with two stroke 360cc engine weights around 425kg and has 36hp has weight ratio of 11. 8 what means 86hp in 1000kg car, suprisingly sporty being 360cc car

i just want to say that panopoulos automotive made a car called chaos which has 3000 hp and it's 1000 kg /2200 lbs, so that's 0. 733 (weight / power)

James can you make video on the Chrysler Crossfire, i know the car is love/hate between car people but i think it deserves mentioning.
