It isn't officialy slower than the Veyron cause the top speed test that the CCR did was on the banked Nardo track, not the straight VW Test track, so the CCR / CCX can possibly be faster than the Veyron.

It is the same car as the CCR except for a few cosmetics and American emissions controls, ie. same crappy Ford supercharged racing V8

^^^
shows how little you know about blocks

the pressure and forces exerted on the block are tremendous! and require quite some finite machine work; as well as built for strenght/lightness. every micron is throughly tested, and developed to be able to handle those 806 ponies inside.

not that the ford racing block is any good :roll: since its american, it can't be good, right?

if you had any idea how many 800+++ RWHP cars are running in this country, you woud've said the exact opposite.
