    so it would only take you around 4 days to go around the entire earth at top speed? wow thats fast

    • @ChristinaKilgore
      @ChristinaKilgore Před 10 lety +9

      and it will only take me 11 hours to go from my house to california

      You seem like that girl on facebook who posts "I'm sad" but mentions no reason why she is sad, so as to make guys ask her why she is sad.

  • @M3Conv
    @M3Conv Před 9 lety +65

    Please stop insulting this video by mentioning the Venom GT.
    This is automotive engineering excellence not to be confused with some bastardised Lotus built by a tuner famous for ripping his customers off. The car is so shit that that they have only sold half the amount they planned to built and it does not even hold the official top speed record anyway (i.e. speed needs to be measured in both directions on the same track)

    • @akirasan7737
      @akirasan7737 Před 9 lety +9

      You can drink your coffee and check your phone in the veyron ;) In the venom you hope for do not die :p

    • @M3Conv
      @M3Conv Před 9 lety +4

      Its the price which gets me. Why is the venom $1M and an Underground Racing Lambo less than half that?, at the end of the day they are both just tuner cars with over 1000BHP

    • @akirasan7737
      @akirasan7737 Před 9 lety +3

      i don't know... there isn't any development.. expect taking a lotus exige and put 1200hp. It's not a prestigious car. Everyone forget SSC utimate aero but nobody forget the veyron 16.4 ;) it will be always the fastest car wich reach 400kph !

    • @ajay0841
      @ajay0841 Před 9 lety +13

      Finally!! someone who understands what a monumental engineering triumph the Veyron is! unlike the tuned lotus, Veyron will forever be in the history books. I was starting to think youtube was filled with fanboys who cant see past top speed. I can hardly believe you exist :s

    • @woutergman
      @woutergman Před 9 lety +1

      Being fully honest I respect your opinions and all (so please don't start hating) but I think both the veyron and the venom are overrated. The venom is a psyched up lotus and the veyron isn't the masterpiece bugatti claims it is. I mean it's hella fast, but look at the engine. 16 cylinders, 4 turbo's. With that's much power I could make a bomber plane that works. My favourite car thus is the Aston Martin one-77. Why? It's only marginally slower than the veyron (top= around 375), it has an atmospheric 12 cylinder engine (which sounds gorgeous, and isn't an overkill powerhouse in comparison to the veyron), the car is magnificent to look at. It's more exclusive (450 veyrons VS 77 Astons), and just the overwhelming coolness it surrounds itself with. The veyron is a race car. No matter how fancy it is, it's still Usain Bolt on steroids on a tuxedo. Unlike the Aston which in this context is more like a classy man in a nice tuxedo who happens to be able to run like hell.

  • @mcmh9523

    What an insane car! Such a brutal speed! This really is mind-blowing.

  • @driveri1435

  • @thomaschristopherwhite9043
    @thomaschristopherwhite9043 Před 10 lety +41

    Fastest car in the world and only 1 place to drive it to it's fullest. That's like being the most handsome guy in the world and all of the women are blind.

    • @Supercarsofhannover
      @Supercarsofhannover Před 10 lety

      What about the german Autobahn?

    • @thomaschristopherwhite9043
      @thomaschristopherwhite9043 Před 10 lety +9

      Well that's a great idea. Take the fastest car in the world, run it full speed on the autobahn, one of the most busiest roads in the world... are you nuts? That's like conducting a bomb test in the middle of time square.

    • @Supercarsofhannover
      @Supercarsofhannover Před 10 lety +3

      I know some guy who often drives his Vitesse on the german Autobahn.. His top speed was about 385 kp/h.. You just have to drive it on a sunday morning if you want to full throttle ;-)

    • @thomaschristopherwhite9043
      @thomaschristopherwhite9043 Před 10 lety +4

      But it's still useless. I mean not the speed... just the whole thing is kinda bullshit. You have a 2 million (whatever western currency) car that is sold on the fact that it's the fastest production car in the world. Now to get your money's worth, you have to either go to VW's exclusive test track or the autobahn in the wee hours of the morning just so you can run out of petrol in 8 minutes and shred your tires in 12 minutes all at the same time. The Veyron isn't a car... it's a giant diamond ring.

    • @BRANDT409
      @BRANDT409 Před 10 lety

      Yea it's true, but it wouldn't matter on the brand of car, or how much it costs, you would still have only a couple of options to take it to the limit. I guess the car has respect, like a guy who can lift a world record amount.. He would have to have a really good day & the right set-up with spotters etc to do a big lift.

    @Michael_Michaels Před 9 lety +4

    I had to see this video again! This shooting was very well done!
    Top speed is astonishing but the fact that it has and engine with 16 cylinders, it makes it even more impressive! You can have V8 with even more power but nothing, I mean NOTHING beats the mighty sound of this engine!!

  • @pascalmpower7944
    @pascalmpower7944 Před 10 lety +4

    Thicker density of air make more drag yes, but thicker density of air will also create greater ignition force. I think the best temp for combination of drag and ifnite is around 15 degrees C

    definatly. I'm not a massive Veyron fan, however i absolutley love it for the reason that its a car designed with no compromise what so ever. It must have been a dream come true for the VW engineers to build such a marvel. I remember back when i read about thw Veyron specs back in 03-04 and simply couldnt belive the numbers.

  • @mitchvoll
    @mitchvoll Před 11 lety

    Both the Bugatti and the Venom are incredibly complicated and fast care. The reason the Bugatti is so impressive is because it is tame. It's a car that can accelerate insanely fast, reach very high top speeds, and do so without breaking your neck on gear shifts, or annoying you with transmission and exhaust drone is why it's a marvel. Look at the Venom or a tuned Ford GT, you're basically driving a street legal racing car. Fun, but incredibly uncomfortable and inconvenient.

  • @DocHavoc0512
