They can keep acting all posh with we got the bigges....fastest 0-100km/h (0-62mph) time, eventually their cars will force us to undergo jetfighter training and make us wear g-suits just to be able to get it off the driveway. I'll skip on this one, next to the odd looks.

I hope to see it in TG

and this is on that page

Well, let's just say... it would have been a bit strange for us not to have been part of this astonishing record run in some capacity. We're not saying any more, but keep a close eye on all things TopGear in the coming weeks...

from TG magazine :

Power Tests of:

Bentley Conti Supersports

911 Turbo Cabriolet

Audi R8 V10 Spyder

Ferrari 458 Italia

Chevrolet Camaro

Merc E63 AMG

Boxster Spyder

and "something exciting with a new Bugatti"

(sry for my very bad english)

James hits 259.11mph in the Veyron SS.

 

Bugatti (with the help of James May, ahem) took the new production car land speed record from the SSC Ultimate Aero with a run of of 268mph in the Veyron SuperSports, SSC has announced it is out to get its title back.

In a statement on its website, SSC - which took the record from t...he Veyron in 2007 with a run of 256mph in Washington - has praised Bugatti's achievement.

'We would sincerely like to congratulate Bugatti,' runs the statement. 'When the Ultimate Aero broke the record in 2007, we knew it was just a matter of time until it was broken by someone else.'

But SSC wants that production car speed record back, and has enlisted designer Jason Castriota - who penned the Pininfarina P4/5, Bertone Mantide and has just been appointed to create the next generation of Saabs - to help out.

'We've been working on a new project to debut before the end of the summer,' the statement continues.

'Not much can be said at this time except that we'll be upping the ante on all fronts. Having Castriota as our lead designer enables SSC to reflect its engineering and performance in its aesthetics. It's impossible for us to be more thrilled about having him on board and we're anxious to show the world what we have up our sleeve.'

Game on. This top speed war might indeed be childish and entirely irrelevant to real-world motoring... but it ain't half entertaining.
