INSANE SuperQuad on the LIMIT 🤯 GSX-R1000 Power

- Conquering an impressive 3rd Place Overall on Leadfoot Festival 2020, we had the crazy BRM 1000 Superquad LT500R/GSXR1000 of Ian Ffitch, driven once again in a way that can pretty much be only summed up as "lunatic". Against a whole host of 500+Hp Turbocharged 4wd Monsters and spaceframed Race Cars, this unique quad fitted with Active Aero was capable of not only keeping up, but also beating most of them.
As far as the machine is concerned it is originally an early 90’s Suzuki LT500R 2 stroke quad, until it saw its engine swapped in 2002 for a GSX-R1000 power unit. Original frame was extensively modified to accomodate the larger engine and only around 20% of the frame is original. In fact only around 10% of the whole original build is left by now. Engine´s putting out around 140 Rear Wheel H, and was sorted by Auckland’s BRM Dyno tune while the rest was built by 2 Way Industries’ owner Jason Way in Auckland. Suspension is custom-built by PEP suspension, in order to handle the extra weight and power. Curious (and quite terrifying...) stat is that the BRM1000 has a Top Speed of more than 230Km/h...
Apart from all the Technical "mumbo-jumbo", it is Mr. Ffitch´s driving style that stands out, all exacerbated even further by the quite dramatic Aero Package, featuring a movable Front Wing, built to enhace braking capabilities while at the same time not introducing too much drag on the straights. All in all, it is one of those machines that really needs to be seen to have some idea of the madness behind it....
Fair play to that rider. Takes some serious muscle to wrestle that thing round.
Was thinking the same, you have to have some serious meat on your bones to handle that beast.
Así es, quien haya conducido uno, sabe que te quema los antebrazos. Respeto total a este hombre...
No doubt such a mean glfast quad idk how anybody keeps these on the ground!!!
And testicules!
When your really good at riding, it doesn't require as much strength as it looks like it does. A highly skilled rider is always one step ahead of the machine, plus the required muscles are conditioned to it. Meanwhile an average rider will be using more effort while also being slower
Thats not to say that this guy's isn't an absolute monster though 🔥🔥🔥
Looks like sooooo much fun😃
The driver is very skilled and very strong. The machine would be next to nothing without him.
Props to that engine builder also,sick.
One tree is all it would take. Notice the hay bales are only tall enough to protect the quad, crazy.
It'll slide....but your going to work for it 💯
What a driver
This had to be in Australia 🇦🇺
Only a matter of time before he highsides it!
Buddy of mine use to have a raptor with the 1100 gsxr motor on it.
Hit a deer and totaled it going 100+
He still walks this earth and was wearing no protection
😅😅😅😅sure lol
It's me Maariioo😂😂😂
Sick Shee bro
Bro brought a trailer for his balls not the quad.
Jsjajsj siiiiii
😂😂
No you young generations are just all sissies.
Stuff that was easy for men a few generations ago makes your knees weak....
No doubt is this my brother Jacob Burrow?????
😂😂😂
What an absolute madman.
At - Rod Millen hillclimb in New Zealand,???
Reminds me of how to train your dragon
Australian s are the Florida man's of the British commonwealth 😅 South Africa a very close second 😳👏😀
flexing
White People Things 🤠
Seriously impressive... Not just the skill but also the amount of work he's doing to keep the center of gravity low and leaning through the turns...
Ken block of quads. Dudes throwing that thing around. Huge props. Thats impressive handling.
Ken Block? He has much more skill than overhyped Block
@@maxmoritz5065 Don't talk about Ken Block like that, mad disrespectful, i'm sorry you're jealous
@@CatandMotorola Its not disrespectful and not jealousy . You should get your facts.
Ken Block was never a succesfull racedriver.
He was more a rockstar and way overhyped .
Thats all im saying.
Calling me jealous makes you look like a fanboy
@@maxmoritz5065 Pffft, okay bruh, keep lying to yourself
@@maxmoritz5065 He may of never been successful in rally but his gymkhana makes him a legend, fuck you bruh
is this a good beginner bike?
😂😂😂😂😂
For sure, little 50cc. It's a great 8 and under kid's bike.
yes but only if u like it really slow and safe
Tbf, it's got 4 wheels...so yeah, it is a good beginner's bike😂😂
Yep 👍🏻 it sure is, hammer down dude 😄 it’s also a good family bike that everyone can ride too , nice and sturdy or whatever…🤔 but make sure when you do get yours that you also 🤭 put a couple of Turbo’s on yours first and maybe a nice little hit of NOS as well just for a bit of extra “pepper” for when you really nail the gas before you even ride it for the first time though, that would really make it a lot easier to handle ! Make damn sure that the camera is recording too! 😄sharing crazy or hilarious footage with new friends is just a nice thing to do, we all wanna see! Who knows maybe you’ll even make Nitro Circus , Travis tends to love that sort of thing ! 🤣.
Just a reminder to support your village berserker and their crazy engineering projects.
"Village Berserker" LOL
Et112n🎉67ldjral5q😅😅😅d😅😅😅😅😮😮😮😅the
😂😂😂😂
He has the balls to produce the necessary down force.
😂
Technically I think it keeps the center of gravity lower on the machine
Yeah, the wing is for looks😂😂😂 no bullshit
has to add at least another 300 lbs or so!
😂😂😂😂😂
Man that's extremely dangerous. Amazing skills
Im 38 and have owned 2 Banshees for many years, have owned a nice '85 Honda 350X, and multiple MX bikes over the years and know my way around a race bike like it's chewing gum but this dude in on another dimension of consciousness, lol..if its physically possible for that 4whlr on that racetrack to shave even a few milliseconds off the laptime I'd be surprised, cause dude is as close to the edge as you get
Especially with them tires!!!
Total lunatic no worries no fear. Excellent work. His Control is beyond most peoples comprehension. This is how legends are born
You're absolutely right! My boss has a 700cc Suzuki agricultural quad that'll do 70mph easily but even in a straight line it's an absolute handful, can't begin to imagine trying to throw one around like the guy in video, much respect.
As soon as I heard the Kiwi accent over the PA, it all made sense.
I thought it was a Aussie accent.
What meet is this?
@@billolsen5401 Leadfoot festival. It's at Rod Millens place
@@billolsen5401 it's in nz it's like our little version of Goodwood down here 😅
Lol i was getting impressed thinking USA riders knew what corners are 😂😂 makes sense now
@@harryfriend4362 we've got corners. Loads of them in the mountains.
Insane rider, a lot more than the quad itself
Fr
What? Nothing crazy about that. Drifting on a SAFE TRACK is nothing.. Now go drive 200mph in the isle of man Gp on narrow roads right next to a stone wall..
@@vihreelinja4743 I’m good
@@vihreelinja4743 Chill...just bcs tht is crazy doesnt mean tht this one cant be crazy too
@@vihreelinja4743 Yeah but you're in a car for that
You know something is unstable when oversteer is the only way to steer
😂😂😂 OH Shyt.😂😂😂
Real shyt, tho.
A big reason for steering like that is the solid rear axle. You can even hear the inside tire chirping in the corners.
@@RobertFothergill-u1z Oh, that makes sense. I just thought it was from both tires losing traction as he turned. Do they make differentials for quads?
Loose is fast.
@@brandonroeder2461no sport quad I've ever seen or know of has a rear diff. The big 4x4 can ams might but I don't know for sure.
Barking it through the corners like that is crazy bro
The skill of that dude is on the exosphere 🚀
That must feel incredible
It's does😂. (just a friendly joke)
@@garethwillis 😂 i hadn't noticed the spelling error
BEST DRUG ON THE 🌎🌍🌎 ADRENALINE YEAH MAN!!!¡!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes it does. I have not gone that fast but i have done similar things and one of the best is drifting a quad on icy roads.
My wife loves 2 strokes
That dude is handling that quad like he was born on it. The power that quad is making you seriously need to be in shape to ride that.
I was thinking the same thing probably sore asf for a few days after the amount of strength and endurance it would take to ride this thing kinda more impressed with the rider than the actual quad🤯
is anybody else trippin on the level of skill and balls this guy has?
Skill yes for sure balls not really I’ve been wanting to put a 1000 cc on my 400 for awhile now it sounds crazy but crazy is fun
I kinda can’t wrap my head around it to be fair.
@@MaxGarfinkel me either lol
@@gavinkoelling5899 be sure to strengthen the frame. Especially with a 400
Bro has to walk funny trying to manage to walk with balls that big...
Bro I love this. Love quads. Hope this becomes a thing
People who build this are insane. The rider is a whole other level, dang
I'm the only human that can do it ~ Annakin Skywalker
Mad respect for ANYONE who keeps it on the track. The streeters already know what they have coming
I only ever raced on dirt. I still know what’s coming.
Well the motor is very heavy has a long swing arm most of the weight was accounted for in the front and all that aero it’s huggin that ground
this Dude knows what he's doing😮
But that backwing wasnt
He's one of the best riders I've ever seen.
It's like use glue to it and it's glued to the road insane.
I remember a few times hanging on for dear life.
In my younger years at that. Got skills and power.
The "i want something almost as fast as a motorcycle but 10x as dangerous" build
This is probably faster than a motorcycle.
Dirt bike? Yes. Sport bike? Eeehh I wanna say probably not. Still looks like an absolute blast tho. That oversteer must feel like you’re doing a super move.
Jesus, it looks like one of those random PSX-era vehicles you would get as an extra unlock. Fkn awesome.
PSX? You mean the PlayStation, or the PS1?
Before you or someone else chimes in, growing up we (my family, friends, classmates, and any other gamer I spoke to) never referred to it as a PSX. We either called it a PlayStation, or PS1 (depending on which of the two consoles you had).
The PSX was a completely separate Sony Console. Marketed by Sony, not Sony Computer Entertainment. The PSX was a digital video recorder, with the PS2 built within it, but was not branded a “PlayStation”. It only sold for 2~ years and was only released in Japan.
@@Malibu252 it's a habit.
When we managed to get one here, in Argentina (I grew up in the fields, full of mud), we didn't even know there was a 2nd one. It was just "la Play", and the only local place we had close by to buy games, sold "Juegos de PSX, Sega, Nintendo y más".
And when I got access to the internet I saw people calling them both PSX and PS1, I just use them interchangeably.
@@Malibu252 PSX was the codename for the original Playstation when it was in development. they did later release the PSX ps2 dvr device, but the term PSX is older than that device.
This is the definition of DRIVE IT LIKE YOU STOLE IT 110% DUDE IS PUSHING IT HARDER THAN I'VE SEEN WITHOUT A CRASH! WOW WOAH AND AMAZING SKILL!!!!
This is racing. Drag is just a straight line. This here takes real skill.
Just keeps getting better. More imagination with radical designs. Unheard of delivery of power,all in the name of speed... Just Badass.....
This is how new sports are created🤘🏼
im waiting for the sidecar variant races...
That's not a quad, that's a mini plane with wheels / tires 😂
Or like a tall Formula 1 car
Jet plane on wheels
😐that doesn't make sense- all planes have wheels and tires....
I only got one word for this: HOLY FUCKING SHIT.
That's 3 words 😂
Not if you say it fast enough😜
@@stringsgb8833 I have 5 words.
Where can I buy one?
@@stringsgb8833Well nothing gets past you
I think that’s called “being at one with the machine” WoW 😮👍
These super quads are a HANDFUL!!
You've got to be in great shape to man handle these rigs!
That dude has got balls the size of church bells...
no, thats where the church get their bells, they have to ask this bloke to give em a ring
@Stue-e nah he gives em a ding 😂
Nah, they’re more the size of a cruise ship engine.
Biiiiing booonnnnnng
This dude can fxckn drive.
Seems more like a ride
@@nipponsuxs seems more like a double space mistake 🤡
anybody doing this makes wrong move you have a tree between your nuts its just not worth it.... course is very dangerous on tree lines
Dude is a beast, quad is bad-ass to but ain't shit without someone like him riding it. Very few men that could make that thing scream like he does. Hats off to you my friend.
Hats off , he blew off hats
Good old New Zealand ingenuity
Wow.. Gemini Crickets!!! That's some Wickedly RAW Power. LOVE IT 👍🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
That thing looks absolutely crazy. It also looks like a hell of a lot of fun.
That's figure skating on tarmac.
Dude I got whiplash from watching that
This looks insanely fun not going to lie.
This is why I love human beings, so many of us are a "good" crazy......
we need more of this quad and its driver! What a mad men!
anyone who ever drove a 250ccm 2 stroke motocross knows how those things pull and how hard u need to keep ur hands on the handlebars.
also the forces on the rest of the body are crazy.
now atleast tripple that with this monster in his driving
as somebody who started off on a clapped out gixxer thaw you're honding on with knees, elbows, hands, even taking a bite out of the fking triple because that thing doesn't fuck about!
@@SoulTouchMusic93a 250 2 stroke or a crotch rocket of almost any size, not to mention the Suzuki GSXR will pull you off the back if your not 100% focused on the task at hand and 100% ready to point it and drop the hammer. Nothing I've experienced in life comes close to the acceleration. I have yet to ride in a fighter jet and I bet money that is about the only thing that could Trump the g force during acceleration. Side note: I'm short as fuck, so I'd start the Kawasaki 250 2 stroke out leaned on a log and not touch the ground again until I came back to the log. LOL. It was my brother's bike. I had a 125. It was night and day different kind of animal. Later years I rode a crotch rocket and was like, where you been my whole life?
he is a NZ rider Ian Fitch
Bros gonna do the isle of man next
Yoooooo not a bad idea
This guy is fearless
Slow..... I shoved a Hayabusa engine in my raptor 700 frame
Perfectfor the Baja1000. Just need lifted maybe make it 6 wheel drive.
Plus use a suzuki Hayabusa 1300 twin turbo.
I can't believe what I saw. This guy has crazy reflexes, and balls of steel. Mad skill, I'm genuinely staggered...
Crazy horse!
よく振り落とされんなこれ!上手い!
Awesome! So much fun my quad is. The power isn’t like my street bike, BUT the power of a 2 stroke quad is super funnnn..
I could make it 10 times faster and more powerful. Maybe enter it in the Baja 500 or 1000!
This was parked outside my old workplace one day about 13 years ago, what an absolute weapon! So cool to see up close
This really needs to become a new popular sport this is sick
I like that transition from drifting to sliding to the back of the seat at the exit of the corner for acceleration with the front wheels hovering.
The most exciting racing iv seen in decades. This should be where F1 is right now
This actually looks like the most fun vehicle you can drive wtf, i would actually sell my car judt to drive this thing everywhere 😂
Get one they are great
Bro this is literally one’s of my dreams to have a quad that goes that fast
Thats that minigame you never could beat
They must have a special holster drilled into the seat for his massive balls and I assume they probably have airbag protection too because there is no way in hell ask someone that has been riding quads and dirt bikes my entire life would I be able to do something like that people don't realize how hard it is to do what he is doing especially on a four-wheeler I mean he literally has to oversteer the quad just to get the bike to turn in the direction that he wants it to go while leaning in the direction he is turning so he doesn't high side the four-wheeler and flip over and riding on dirt and concrete especially with slicks and on a smooth pavement is way different than riding on dirt where it's easy to burn out and slide and drift and all that kind of stuff try doing what this guy's doing at 50 plus miles an hour with slicks on a nice flat surface and see how well it works for you. And just one more thing to prove my point if you listen to the tires and the skidding when he drifts around the corners you can literally hear the tires bouncing losing traction because there's so much grip from the slicks and the pavement that it's making the four-wheeler bounce off the ground just a tad bit and if one of the around one of those corners one of those tires catch too much he's most definitely going to high side that four-wheeler and it's not going to feel good for him and most definitely going to destroy some parts of that bike
This is called the Grandprick instead of the Grand Prix
If he wasn't going so fast, he would have flipped it - The speed produces the necessary downforce that enables him to corner without rolling the quad over; that, and the fact that the rider has definitely got some huge minerals!!
Ehhh I would say for some turns like down hill turns. I it's the speed into the slide and the counter balance of his body
God damn, you can feel the power. What a beast, what a pilot as well.
Is it active aero? Or the frame bending?
Yes...
should be active aero, so it'd be handy should you fall off a mountainside in it :D
Amazing video, amazing rider! So refreshing to see this display of speed and daring on a proper racetrack v. city streets.
Bros got Balls of Steel and they're on Fire! What a Performance of a rel Man and his Maschine!
This would smoke anything, change my mind.
Der absolute Wahnsinn 😮
I'd like to see him after all the racing since im sure he's a hurtin unit after those serious workouts. 👍🏻😎
I don’t think that thing really needs the spoilers or more like the wings like it’s about to take off…
Now thats a commuting vehicle, never late again.
When I saw the nose and the wings I started smiling. That smile was wiped off my face in a few seconds lol what a beast
Going to take a guess, it frame and power train is a Yamaha Banshee
The only reason that’s still called a quad because it has 4 wheels
Best hill climb ever, ballsy
It'd be fun to see it run Pikes Peak.
Dangggg that’s actually awesome! How many ccs
When are quads going to isle of Mann?
Oh brother this would be fun
Has the video been sped up?
It looks too fast for physics.
absolutely sped up. looks like 1.25 speed. ruins it. hella lame.
Every ride is a fight with the beast!
Airbrakes on the front too 🤯
Where do I get one
His back pain! Super skillz n strengths for sure!🎉🎉❤🎉❤🎉🎉❤🎉🎉❤
Moto wrc
見事なカウンター!
How can a decked out engine like that only put out 143hp? Is it supposed to say 243hp? A stock 1000 will push around 90hp. Slap a turbo on it and it will rival that. Take an engine out of a Yamaha 4 stroke snowmobile and slap it in that n already you're looking at over 150hp stock and can get boosted to over 370hp years with mods. But then again it would be impossible to control on a quad
