Awesome Stunt to Promote the Silverstone WSBK Race

Now that's some promotion which can easily rival the grid girl commercials: an SBK racer and a stunt driver, using an SBL machine and the official WSBK pace car (Alfa Romeo Mito), respectively.
Inside the pace car we find professional stunt driver Paul Swift, while the Kawasaki Ninja British Superbike machine is ridden by Chris "The Stalker" Walker. The way these two guys get to use their preferred vehicles is not to be duplicated at home or on the streets: remember these are pros and the stunt has been carefully prepared.

However, it's nice to see such a feat, with the pace car drive on its right-side wheels and the SBK Kawasaki passing it on the inside... and a bit under the side, if we might say so. And to make things even harder, the stunt takes place on a wet track.

The WSBK will be in the UK 3 through 5 August 2013 and since we saw more advertising feats for the Silverstone race, we might just get some more until summer.
