Bugatti Veyron vs LHD R34 Skyline GT-R Video

By Sean Morris November 15, 2011 Bugatti Veyron, Left hand drive, R34, video

Video from Dragtimes.info. This looks like the Moscow 500, and in this video a left hand drive R34 Nissan Skyline GT-R goes up against a Bugatti Veyron. I am still trying to figure out how they figure who wins, but it looks like lowest ET to the mile, maybe highest speed? They list reaction time, but it doesn't seem to come into play. Check out the video, and listen to the sounds of an RB26, the sweet song of an inline 6 at high revs.

Bugatti Veyron Engine Picture from MotoIQ

Eric Hsu posted up a picture of a Bugatti Veyron engine with the heads removed. Interesting looking engine. 1001 hp, quad turbo. I consider this to be the fastest production car in the world, no matter the couple “production car” claims of higher speeds. As you can see in the above video, a 480 hp Nissan GT-R doesn’t stand a chance against a Veyron. However for $80,000 vs $1,500,000 you have some change left over if you purchase a GT-R. The Veyron is just something that demands respect.
