Even if the bugati wins, its still the inferior car?

I was waiting for the:

"Well if you invested the difference in price into the F1, it could be just as fast!"

or

"Well the F1 is 15 years old, of course it is going to be slower!"

crowd.

I guess the:

"My favorite car is still the best EVAR!"

works just as well.






Cool video. Two totally bad-assed cars.

I'll take purity over complexity anyday.

There will eventually be faster cars than the Bugatti. That's progress.
There will never be another car like the McLaren.

The future is all safety nannies and "driver assistance" stuff that seperates people and machine. Dual clutch transmission (aka automatic transmission), stabilty control, launch control....in the end stuff that prevents you from having control.

cuz speed alone is the judge of inferior/superior?

how about handling and looks? both of which the F1 is superior

the front end of the Veyron looks stupid IMO, and the thing is a lot heavier than the F1

Top gear test board, Veyron is 6. Ahead of Ferraris, Lambos..

While there's no Mclaren.. I'm quite sure it doesn't "shit" all over the Bugati.
