Veyron vs Cessna

[Scott]

Here is a great video of the new Bugatti Veyron racing a Cessna 182 from Alba Italy to London to deliver some truffles.

Great vid! :D

It took me 15 minutes to D/L on a T1, but worth it to hear the sound of the Veyron.

Some impressive facts/ figures in that video.

0-60 in just over 2 seconds.

At full throttle the car will empty it's 100 litre fuel tank in 12 minutes. (Finding a place to unleash the 1001 HP for a full 12 minutes would be a feat though.)

And this car will beat the McLaren F1 to 200mph even if the Mclaren started the race at 120mph. :eek:

What an impressive machine, and pretty too. This engineering marvel had better be produced by someone in a scale model kit, it surely deserves it. I'd buy a bunch just to have them in various 2 tone paintjobs.

New R&T has an article on the Veyron; pics of the white/silver one that was @ Pebble Beach. If there ever is a model I think I would do that color combo...very different to be sure but more subdued than you would expect a 250 MPH car to look.
