the worse part is that the Veryon probably didn't even use 1/2 its power. And the Veryon seemed like it wasen't even trying as opposed to the SLR where u can see some torque steer.

How does the Veyron handle on a track?

Do you understand French? A cool vid and near the end they have a little hard driving track time.

Good to see the power difference between the two. I'm sure we all figured who would win, but it was nice to see how far apart they are nontheless.

Veyrons are going for a lot more than that. I believe you can't get one for under $1.3 million, where as an SLR brand new is in the area of $415k.

Lame race...different class of supercar. The SLR pitted against a Porsche Carrera GT would have been more entertaining.

^^^ They didn't want to buy new tires at the end of the day

FWIW a poor match-up and a horrible video.

Jesus, not this video again...

How many SLR's could you buy for the price of one Veyron again? Great, lock the thread before the bench racing fires up.

Price analogy's are just stupid comparing cars above $200k. Price is not even part of the argument. Only kids who can't afford any of these vehicles make points like that if you read the comments. The people who can afford $250k+ cars can basically afford whatever they want... it's a style/manufacturer/taste decision at that point... What's funny is most people don't stop to think the guy who can afford the $1m+ car probably owns a fleet of exotic sports cars and a huge garages,houses & airplanes to go with them.

Anyway, I had a hard time reading 1/2 the comments on the video, there is some really idiotic people out there.

No one mentioned the new improved numbers for the Veyron GT which tap in around 1232hp and 272mph.

Bugatti VS Yamaha R1

Bugatti Veyron vs. Yamaha R1. That Veyron is so extremely fast, it makes the R1 look like an electric wheelchair. Nice special treat at the end of this video.
