I didn't think it'd be able to take the #1 spot. I'd never seen the air brake from the front--it's a lot bigger than it looks. As always, the Zonda sounds amazing.

Not that surprising, it's such a tight-wound track, there is now way they can use even half the power of that car.
Around the Nordschleife though, that would be another story!!!

That would be one hell of a scary ride! Could you imagine how much of a white knuckle drive that would be?! 12+ miles, balls out in a Veyron - that's my definition of scary. But if anyone wants to send me to Germany with their Veyron......

The Veyron seems very lazy in the corners.
The sound of the Zonda...hmmmmm

Didn't Bugatti announce something about how the car was not meant to be driven on the track? But Zonda F is just crazy!
