I've just had a call from Mr Veyron. He would beg to differ!
actually he wouldn't... don't you watch topgear? the veyron isn't the fasted track car by far, and in dubai it was smoked by the lighter F1 only after half a mile did the veyros power pull it past the F1
Sorry?
The quote was, if you want a quick 0-60 you need a light weight car.
The Veyron is heavy and does it in 2.5-2.8 seconds. Unless you think 2.5 seconds to 60 is slow, it's end of discussion!
motorsport 101, to go fast, loose weight.
veyron is only able to shift its lard arse by strapping 2 V12's together and running FI as well i think, total cost £1,000,000
take the lotus 7, weighs just over 750kg and does similiar 0-60, or the atom i think does it even quicker, and its all down to weight.
