1000HP twin turbos do have a bit going for them though...

Watch how it just walks away from the bike..

What bike was it CBR1000, CBR600 or R6?

It seemed to have a BIG RPM range. And yes the Bug juist blatted away allright, that's mainly what made me think it may be a 600.

This is why:

* Quad turbo
* 1000bHP!!!
* All wheel drive



Ya gotta love a company that makes something like this just to see if it can be done and make a HUGE loss on every car sold.

If only I had the readies I would get one, just to feel the God of acceleration place his hand on my chest and push me into the seat, while the other one smacks me in the head for thinking I was good enough to drive this thing...

Oh yeh, and we could bang on all day about whether the McClaren F1 was a better car...blah...blah...blah

On Topgear tonight, Clarkson said that the F1 could pass the Veyron (at standstill) at 120mph and the Veyron would still win to 200mph!!!

That would be worth the price of admission alone!

Noice! I read an article on that car. The sticker is 1.5 million or so.

Well, after a ride like that I think I'd just go home and feel good about only having spent 10grand. :tongue: That Porsche Carrera Gt (first and last car in the video)seemed a little more evenly matched to the bike acceleration wise, but even that one pulled on him pretty good in the corners. That one is only about 1/2a-million bucks, a real bargain compared to the Bugatti. :hammer:
