The SLR might lose even more on a standstill given the RWD layout.

well

the S7 is faster to 60 then the more powerful S7 TT... but teh TT edges out the n/a in the 1/4 still.

extrapolating, I agree with you ;)

Probably due to turbo lag.

Holy lord, SLR was left there like standing still :lol:
Now, bring on that S7 TT. I've been driving the S7 in the GT4 lately and I love the car. Got the best time in NS with it :D
Thanks for the video!
mojo, what options are you running? street soft tires? any engine mods? whats your time? I am thinking i'll have a go at it later :)

Probably due to turbo lag.

actually no, its due to not enough frictional surface. There isn't much turbo lag to speak of, especially on a hard launch in the S7 TT... have you been in one? its not a 'high boost' car at all.... and 427ish cubes. Its the massive torque the car produces spinning only the rear wheels.... you are fighting for traction in all of 1rst and 2nd gears.... 90+ mph

Apparently, if you gave the Mac F1 a 10s head start, the veyron would pass it before it reached 200 mph...

why?

the Veyron would smear that little McLaren snail right into the ground....

ALL HAIL...

I still think it would be a much closer battle than the SLR, and just nice to see the battle of the regions. Bugatti (EU), McLaren (UK), and Saleen (US)....throw in the Koenigggseeegggggsgsggggg for scandinavia.

In a stright line the Bugatti has it in the bag, but around the track? hmmmmm

You'll prolly beat me fair and square. :D Only option is Racing Medium tires, other than that car is stock. All the driving aids are turned off.
I love the second gear in that car, it's so short :lol:
6.41.andsome is my time. I've only gotten 1.44.andsome with SLR.

I could cut maybe two seconds easily from S7s time, but any more than that would need more practise in the curvy section after the Karussell.

haven't run it yet... maybe sometime tomorrow. Sounds fun. I haven't played GT4 in foreeeeever :)

Not surprising, pretty much exactly what I expected to happen :roll:

Exactly... At least a few members of JW still have some common sense :roll:

1000bhp vs 600bhp and people actually bother to comment they are amazed?

It's a given.. 1000 > 600... hello.. Mcfly... :roll: :roll:

The SLR managed to do pretty well for the first second or two during the second run, although it's clear the AWD of the Veyron gave the car much more grip for that initial start.

During the first run, the SLR seemed to start off too harshly and the typical MB electronics kicked in, making the whole car shudder and the rear sway as it lost precious seconds. From there on, it was just game over.

Still a fun run to watch.

Hello Biff :lol:

this test is pretty much useless ... it shows the ovbious thing .. " veyron is faster ' HA HA ... HA HA' " the flying pig wins again .. ugh :\ ...

someone should put 4 turbos on an Enzo or Lp640 .... then do a comparison .. .

Just cool to see two fast cars having a drag... to see what a really fast production car and a really really really fast production car compare like against each other in a straight line..

I'd luv a vid of all the latest fast cars in a runway drag, all at once.. like an old top gear episode had...

EVO already made a trip with both the Veyron and the Enzo and the Enzo driver was left by the Veyron (his own words) and couldn't fight it. The result would be the same with a CXX or a McLaren F1 maybe even a Saleen but on a race track it would be another story ... Anyway I like this car :wink:

6:30ish is possible... the S7 seems to wash sooooooo wide, not at all like I thought it was... a crappy -off-track lap of 6:40.8 after 2 laps of figuring out how wide the S7 washes out... I was slow in the back half, but still 1-2 seconds in the front half to be gained I think.

I think I can lap a C5 Z06 in GT4 in about the same time with a bit more ease.. I dont think GT4 takes the S7's d/f into account.
