Yes - the average Veyron owner wont have done much driving themsleves anyway - the rest may line up with a bike and from a standstill it will a drivers race each time.

**yawn**

To run low tens you point and squirt.. the same as the Veyron driver.

And again - for 1 million dollars, super computer aids, 4wd and 1000hp if it couldn't run 10.2s it would be even more of a bucket of shit than it is.
