    Yep, by the best show ever. I can't wait until they're able to get one around the track. I'm curious if it can match cars the Enzo or CGT around the tight corners.

    Thanks for sharing.

    Would have liked to hear the rest of the interview at the end.

    Ranks up there with the video of the guy who made a fully functional model all by hand.

    I've driven near 180mph and it was very tense indeed. I can't imagine going another 75mph faster !!!!! That car is truly incredible! I've never been much of a fan of the Veyron. But the more I learn about it, and realize just how much of an engineering achievement it is...I'm changing my tune. To make a car with amenities and comfort, be drivable every day in traffic, and yet have the ability to do that is nothing short of astonishing. There may come a day when a car beats the Veyron's top speed.....maybe....but maybe not. The technical hurdles are huge and it may not be worth the effort since top speed is very seldon realized. Yes I would love to see and hear a Veyron on the track. I don't think it would be a delicate dance, but more of a bar room brawl. Gosh that would be awesome!

    It's not it's top speed that impresses me, it's the acceleration.

    Apparently you can let a McLaren F1 (road car) get to 120 MPH and still beat it to 200 MPH from a standing start!

    It's obviously on of the most amazing cars ever built. For sale to the public, and the guy's giving you some pretty calm commentary at 250 MPH.

    No wonder Schumi retired. I'm faster than he is...

    Todd's victory in the Skull Shine dragster was his fourth in just 20 Top Fuel starts, an impressive record by any standard. This one was extremely impressive as he followed up a 4.699-second, first-round pass on a freshly washed track with a pair of 4.47s and a 4.482 at 324.98 mph in the money round
