I found this on another website.  BBC's Top Gear organized a race between these two vehicles.  Really neat to watch... Enjoy!



(It's old, but I searched and didn't find anything.  Sorry if this has been posted before.)

Pit the Typhoon against an SSC Aero. THAT would be .

SSC Aero: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SSC_Aero

Not only does it look cooler than the Veyron, it's faster by a little bit. That little bit could have pushed it just enough to beat the Typhoon.

I'd love to own a Veyron, even if I could never drive it near to it's potential.  It is a superb piece of engineering.  it's art.

I think they could've beat it with a Porsche 917/30, its top speed is only like 245, but it pretty much destroys everything in the acceleration category

That's evil.

But lol at the British, "It's THE BEST plane in the world". Just because it has a PC that can understand and speak 7 languages and it can pull 9Gs doesn't mean it's so good. But that was a wicked race!!!!! And the Brits won

Is the Veyron the fastest car in the world?

I don't know, I doubt it. The EF won by a significant margin and that car has more or less the same acceleration, if not slower.

Doubt it - look at the gap at the end between the two. Good race though - seen it lots of times before! I'm actually watching the African Road Trip (or off-road trip!) in Season 10 now.

When is the next series starting, shit has been away for too long now. I don't think there is a more epic show on TV than Top Gear

The outcome would have been worse than the veyron.

Much slower it has 3/4 the hp of the veyron.

Correction thats the 2006 model, the 2007 does have more hp.

Btw "theoretical top speed to 273.75 mph"

Not the worlds fastest car. Its theoretical, until it does it, it aint fact.

What the Typhoon?

That has at least 50K bhp. The EJ200 is one bigass engine....

Comparing the Veyron to that America car.
