Evo Magazine and Bike Social bring you a four-part Car v. Bike video series filmed at Blyton Park in North Lincolnshire using datalogging equipment to show no favouritism. Is two wheels or four wheels quicker around one flying lap of the 1.5 mile circuit?
We start with the series preview followed by the first instalment; it's an all-British affair with the Jaguar F-Type V6 S v. Triumph Street Triple R. Evo Magazine's Jethro Bovingdon is at the wheel of the 3-litre supercharged 375bhp Jaguar while seasoned bike tester and racer Bruce Dunn takes charge of the 105bhp, 675cc Triumph.

Two-time Superbike World Champion, Neil Hodgson, can now be found striding around the MotoGP paddock with a microphone and a cameraman. Recently he could also be found at Blyton Park on Ducati's 1199 Panigale R in a one-lap race in our latest Car v. Bike video in partnership with Evo Magazine. Lining up in the Audi R8 V10 was Dean Stoneman, 2010 Formula 2 World Champion and three-time race winner in the current GP3 series.
