The Agera S just squashed it like a bug....

True..... But the Veyron is 4wd. In spite of being a rolling start it still gives advantage to the Veyron.

This was so unfair and stupid.
If you put my grandma in a Lamborghini Gallardo and let her race vs. Michael Schumacher in a Golf GTI its like the same situation.
Im glad that finally someone made some sort of "race" happen now but that was just unfair.
Bring a Veyron SS and a Koenigsegg Agera R.
Find a decent runway and 2 professional drivers. THEN make a race happen. I dont understand why no big TV show made this epic and interesting race happen yet.

Totally agree. This race does not stand any kind of serious analysis, just a fun fact.
Relationship Weight / Power (Ksegg 1.36) (1.90 Bugatti)
Inexperienced "Bugatti" driver against Koenigsegg Test driver.
Bugatti always ran with the spoiler deployed (increased aerodynamic load), being that it was in a straight line was not necessary.
Never started the race from standstill, I suspect the 4-wheel traction Bugatti would have a slight advantage, at least initially. But even that was denied, so to speak.
Anyway it was something more worthy than the races against Ferraris and other supercars less powerful, in the past.
A comparison with the Bugatti SS was most appropriate.

^reckon the reaction time from a rolling start is the same..
If your still or rolling at 50..and then ur supposed to punch it at a certain moment.
Both things take reaction, probably the aame reaction time give or take.
What would be a valid reason though, is that he does not want to stress his car.
PS
Did Ksegg even sell that Hundra? seems like they are playing around with it as a factory car, i wouldnt like them to race it if it was mine.
