I think races like these should be sponsored by major pharma companies. They should let people diagnosed with terminal diseases drive the damn cars to scare the living $#!T out of the other drivers, who ***** and moan because their lives are monotonous and pathetic. Ferrari, Lambo, whatever....how many people can say they really live "like they were dyin" ?
uh oh. First of all the Veyron seems to be just delivered... the car is sporting factory temp plates. I believe the owner doesn't have even a UK driving license. And the GTB... no plates... nothing... bye bye.
He doesn't have to go top speed to get away. He could go 200 mph and the rate of acceleration to that speed would put him far away from any pursuing law enforcement. And like mentioned above, he would be so far gone by then that it wouldn't even matter I heard tires cost $10k on the Veyron, though. So that could be an expensive trip
I don't know if you're being serious, but Top Gear (with Clarkson, May and Hammond) were filming at Stanford Hall the same day and were not involved. I was at Goodwood on Sunday (like many others) and saw both the Veyron and the 599 there. It wasn't Mark's car, amusing as it might be to drop him in it. As above, I know the car. In fact I noticed it didn't have rear numberplate at Goodwood, but it did have a front plate... Black is quite popular in 599s and I know of a few. There were two black 599s at Goodwood. The Bugatti is on Franch plates. Jonathan
Mark's galavanting around northern italy at the moment. The tabloids camped out at his home would be something of a surprise for him to return to
