[SPEEDEAMON]

At Laguna Seca last month during the Monterey Historic races, the driver showing the Veyron's potential off during the lunch break over-cooked it into turn one and spun out. Fortunately he missed the concrete barrier and the only skidmarks left were on the course and in his underwear. I can't imagine what happenned to the poor chap as all the top brass of Volkswagen as well as Bugatti were there. Had he crashed the car, it would have been totalled and he would not have been able to pace the following vintage Bugatti race or be part of the display at the putting green at Pebble Beach the next day. The 1000hp, W16, 4 wheel drive, 4 turbos was mighty impressive carrying a high speed on the straightaway leading up to turn one but no matter how good the car was its up to the driver's skill.
