congrats, that is really fucking fast!

Yet they still won't let them take it around the track

yeah, saw the episode last week.
gotta love captain slow going 253mph.

407.4km/h. Holy fucking shit.
I have the Veyron as the wallpaper on my work laptop. As if I needed another reason to love that car.

Incredible

That must have some serious downforce to keep it on the road at those speeds!

Yeah this was on last week. Fucking incredable

awesome presentation, as always, from the top gear team. Nice to see James May get a go here - don't usually see him outside the studio (tho i've only watched a few episodes of top gear)

Apparently when they aired Hammond's crash they got 8.6 million viewers (30% of people watched it, higher than any other channel at the time). They got 7 million on the last episode.

The highest-rating BBC2 show last year was the final of The Apprentice, which attracted 5.9 million viewers. Top Gear's best 2006 audience was 5.3 million viewers.

For you non-UK people Top Gear is on BBC2 not the main BBC1 channel.

The BBC must be loving it.

that was definetely impressive

lol, love the "at this speed the tires last only 15 minutes, but that's okay, the fuel runs out in 12" bit

....WOW.... :-0

The first time Top Gear raced with a Veyron against a propellerplane through Europe was fun, but this is what we were waiting for.

Incredible feat for the Volkswagen engineers that made it possible to cross the 250 mph - 400 km/h in a production car, while surviving it. They'll never regain the cost of R&D, so applause for the imagination and determination to advance car technology.

Which begs the question of why they ever sold one to this faggo: http://savemanny.blogspot.com/2007/01/s ... 7-mil.html

they should have sold them like ferrari sold the enzo's, to select people.

Don't know that guy, but he looks like a total imbecile....what a waste...smoking a cig in such a nice car.

Lindsey Lohan is crazy hot

Fuck me that video was hot... Loved it...

Gotta lovethe fact that at thoes speeds, the closest thing it probably feels like on a road is... Well... A Pod Racer

Feckin hell... Captain slow needs a new name...

This is a car that has 2000hp and is street legal. They mention the Bugati in this clip. As far as stait line racing this car will beat the Bugati but I doubt it will reach the top speed of the Bugati. All of this HP in a Chevy motor.

one-off drag hot-rod... :icon6:

while it is mechanically impressive... its nothing new; or even remotely as impressive as the feat of engineering that the veyron is.
