chilli Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 still amazingly quick though, would like to see speedo footage of say a 1/4 mile and top speed run anyone know of the video where they race this against the Mclaron F1 (with a headstart to 140mph) - someone at work mentioned it, I need to see that!

merckx Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 It's only a little faster than the Mclaren F1, it may have 987 BHP but it's approx 545kg heavier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chilli Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 is the story that my mate at work was telling me not true then? he said the f1 got to 140mph and the bugatti then set off and beat it to 200mph or something, thats not a little faster, thats insainely faster, but only if it's true of course!

chilli Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 wow, still it would be a very tall order to do that to the f1 though wouldn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colsoop Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 That is v fast. Although it is several hundred kilos heavier it has about 300 hp more than the mclaren. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz Walker Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 The papers last week (Clarksons Column) said he had drove one the week before so I rekon that'll be one of the first things on the new Top Gear... Gaz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tannhauser Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 is the story that my mate at work was telling me not true then? he said the f1 got to 140mph and the bugatti then set off and beat it to 200mph or something, thats not a little faster, thats insainely faster, but only if it's true of course! That doesn't sound too far away from the review in this month's Evo: "To put it in perspective, if a full wound-up McClaren F1 went past a poised, stationary Veyron at 100mph and the Veyron driver gave it the gun as the F1 passed, the Bugatti would still reach 200mph just beforwe the F1 did." No mention of a video, though, and a strictly theoretical comparison Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lust2luv Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 Impressive, but the Veyron would still take a while to actually catch the F1 up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
