Judging by the license plates on some of the other motorcycles, I think he's busy winning a track day rather than an actual race. Still neat to see....

His top speed with that gearing is 200km/h on the straights and the sportbikes are passing him quite well in the straights so its not like they are all just loafing along.
Its fun to watch some of the passes being made in the bends, a proverbial fly in the ointment so to speak.

Bloody chook chasers should be banned. They just have no idea that they cannot go around corners like that. :?

Fun to watch that video for sure.

Fun indeed, I found myself getting closer to the screen as the racing progressed and leaning into the bends as well.
