The Bugatti Veyron at top speed
- Posted by Beth on April 9th, 2007 filed in General, Things I Love, Video
“Amazing” doesn’t even begin to cover it. How about 253 miles an hour (407 km/h)? Faster than a Formula One car. I think I’ll have to buy one.
What, it only costs about a million, maybe a million five!
Oh, wait. Maybe not.
Read about this jaw-dropping machine here or here, and build yours here. Yeah, you wish too. ;-P

Read an article back when they first started designing the Veyron. Keepin’ the baby running cool was a big problem. The engineers had to think outside the box to keep the engine cool.

Meant to add that the rear air foil isn’t for stability, it functions as an air brake when decreasing from high velocity. Wouldn’t want to have the brakes fail due to heat.

Holy dual overhead cams! That was the Batmobile!
