Yes. I can find it for you if you want.

You’re kidding, right? Its a high speed track.

Besides, the Veyron is a luxury car with a big hammer. I also doubt that they ran the car very hard on the track… if something went south it would be a 1.6 million dollar mistake. I’m betting a big power/acceleration car with relatively mediocre handling would bring trouble upon itself relatively easily. I bet that time was done by pussyfooting around the corners and hammering it down the straights. The bumps also don’t favor a car that weighs that much

I would at least expect that for two reasons. The specs are ridiculous on that car over the regular GTR… and the GTR was hyped up to be faster anyway, so its about time.
