Bugatti Veyron at the 2007 Prescott Hill Climb

The Bugatti Veyron is the Alpha dog in the supercar arena, with its absurd W16 engine equipped with four turbos combining to create 1,000hp for tossing around the 4,100lb beast at will. There aren't many vehicles, at any price, that can go from zero to 100 back to zero again in under 10 seconds, so every time one of the 300 Veyrons is captured on video, it's worth posting.

After the jump is a couple minutes of the venerable Veyron tackling the twists and turns at the 2007 Prescott Hill Climb back in May. Watch how the $1.4 million mega-supercar hits the pavement just a few feet from hundreds of onlookers, with some high-end rubber and AWD keeping the blown W16's prodigious power under control. For some reason, whoever put together this flick felt the need to loop the video about 1:25 in, but it's worth seeing twice anyway. Enjoy!.

Sorry D,

As you stated not mine, wish I could write as well as that.

I am learning though. Seems like every other day I have another report to write... :eek:

Manic,

This was very well written....... You're to be congratulated.....

The pace, phrasing, meter, muscularity and flair for rhetorical alliteration were worthy of the (so called) "venerable Veyron"....

Simply perfect.....

P.S.

Now I see that it was transcribed.......... Still some nice writing anyway.....

A journey of 1000 miles always begins with a single step..........

After seeing the Veyron on Top Gear, I can't get enough of the ugly beast... :rock:

Yes, but does it have to take so much time... :eek:

Read more..... and get an unabridged dictionary.... Webster's or Oxford (doesn't matter to me). Once you run across a good (new) word .. look it up and begin using it for one week. It will (then) become yours. Within one year, you'll be well on your way to verbal prowess.....

If time serves, learn the classic errors in speech and writing..... Terms such as, "centered around" and "the reason is because" are to be avoided like the (bloody effing) plague.... (the correct terms are "centered on" and "the reason being that.....") .... These efforts to become a fan of the language will build your communication muscles and serve you well (for) your entire life.

GL bro....
