Gtr Vs Veyron

[saff_cossie]

Found this on another forum and thought it would be a good post. No one seems to have put it up yet on here from a quick search.

New Evo mag out in the UK has filmed 2 parts of the GTR vs Veyron. They also have a number of other clips down the right side including the Alpina B7.

This is an old airstrip used as a proving ground by many car clubs, magazines and also tv shows.

Enjoy

Nice one. Predictable crevasse separating the acceleration. I don't believe the Veyron is as good on the track as expected though (maybe due to its 2+ ton laden weight - I was like OMGWTF when I saw the scales), and fair enough, it wasn't really designed to be anything more than a 2mil drag car/luxury grand tourer. Can't remember exact details, but I think Veyron lapped ring in 7:40 - but the driver may have been scared to push it 100% and lose his job....

If I had the choice I'd still take the R35 as a track car and use the other 90% of the money to buy an F430 convertible as my daily and a nice house

The video kinda reminded me of vintage top gear: R33 GTR vs McLaren F1

for the price of the veyron, one can buy a few gt-rs.

one of those cars actually has a ''horse power "gauge , ten more cylinders and just generally screams out "i am compensating for lack of a number of things"

Lol whatever impresses those lucky enough to afford it ("Ohhh look Margaret, i'm putting down 805hp, still got another 200 on reserve).

But in all honesty, the veyron is an engineering marvel. I don't think you'll ever see a car as crazy.
