Surprised it was even that fast, shes a heavy sob.

wow I've been waitin to see what the stig would do with it... KOENISEGEGEIEGEG BABY
I never heard of the Gumpert Apollo.
no way a acr is faster around the ring than that car.

acr wiped the floor with it. same with the zr1 and gtr
I don't think they'd ever run the Veyron at the ring at full tilt. The car costs $1.5 million and is the most advanced piece of automotive engineering created thus far in a street car. It doesn't need to prove anything to anyone.
Car that heavy must have good tires under it to perform on a track. You can hear how much tire squeal he was getting on that lap and it still did a low 18. It would be just as fast as the Gumpert with a tire that could compensate for all that weight.

Wow very impressive for a car that heavy. Majority of the vehicles on the top of that list are purpose built racecars for the street. That car is nothing short of an engineering master piece.
for a heavy car the Bugatti did a great job.
i am very suprised and impressed the bugatti went that fast for the weight and size of the thing!
that car is engineering art!

They push F1 cars pretty hard and they are worth between 20-30x more than a Veyron.
When's the last time they ran an F1 car hard at the Ring? The last run I know of was Nick Heidfeld's record run in which he wasn't pushing at all and slowed for photo ops. As far as I know they don't push F1 cars hard there at all.
They do, but just on the f1 circuit, not the north loop. They do run with an entire grid though, so it balances out, don't you think? :shrug:
What I'm trying to say is that if the Veyron didn't do well on the ring, it wasn't because they were scared of crashing it. Several cars were required to be crashed for structural tests, as well as the numerous developmental mules which also crashed because the Veyron is inherently flawed.
They already tested the CCR, I think it has the 2nd fastest time.
My bad, I mistyped, I meant the CCXR. The CCR has 200 less horsepower
faster than a Maserati MC-12 on a road course 
the veyron is GOD :bowdown:
the veyron is GOD :bowdown:I don't think it balances out at all.
Surviving a crash test and surviving a crash on a VERY fast Nurburgring at top speed are two different things. If the Veyron didn't do well it didn't do well, and a 7:40 definately isn't considered doing well. The manufacturer of the grand daddy of elite supercars doesn't take the trip all the way there to meander around the course, that I'll agree with.
Your both wrong. they tested the CCX(806hp) and the CC8S(655hp) only.

How is the first guy wrong? He said he can't wait until they test the CCXR, then 2nd guy said they tested xxx
Indeed. When are you getting yours?faster than a Maserati MC-12 on a road course
