Dear Santa,
I know I said that if you brought me a Discovery I would never ever ask you for something again, but I really really promise that if you bring me the Bugatti Veyron I will even go without a birthday present and give all my teeth to the tooth fairy for free. And Santa if you read this you will know why it is so important that I have one : http://driving.timesonline.co.uk/art...890873,00.html Merry Christmas everyone and a special thanks to Serg for such a great site. ![]() |

Yep...the veyron....INSANE......it has the fuel to run for something like an hour....
"1.33 gallons (5 liters) per minute. That's 45,000 liters of air per minute." -http://auto.howstuffworks.com/bugatti1.htm I like this; "The extra speed had to come from changing small things on the body. They started by fitting smaller door mirrors, which upped the top speed a bit but at too high a price. It turned out that the bigger ones had been keeping the nose of the car on the ground. Without them the stability was gone. In other words, the door mirrors were generating downforce. That gives you an idea of how much of a bastard the air can be at this speed [400km/h]." "That’s 370ft a second. You might want to ponder that for a moment. Covering the length of a football pitch, in a second, in a car."
