Bugatti Veyron 267 mph video
|
That acceleration at around 200 mph is pretty amazing. Like something out of a movie.
|
That is an awesome video. The last one he did was great...this is killer.

Tom,
Did you put a order in for one? David:LOL: |
About four years ago Gordon Murray wrote an analysis of the Veyrons design for Automobile magazine. He concluded that the decision to style the vehicle before entrusting it to the engineers-"Here. Make this go over 250 miles per hour."-made extracting the required performance more difficult than would be the case, approaching the challenge from the other way round. Unlike building a competitive version of the McLaren F1, the cost to achieve an incremental increase in maximum speed of the Veyron is more reflective of the inherent weakness in the way the project was managed than it is an indicator of the added resistance to be overcome, pushing an object travelling at 256 mph eleven miles per hour faster.

American owned? Half as much $ as Butt-ugly or Bugatti? Fastest car in the world? Has Shelby in the title of the Manufacturer? Hell, why havn't I heard of this beast before?
A real amazing car for sure. http://www.shelbysupercars.com/about-ssc.php |
I'd much rather have this Ford Fiesta.............and the talent to drive it like Ken Block:

The increase in drag to go from 256 to 267 is about 9%.
