That's insane. Reminds me of that commercial when that actor raced Dante' Hall of the Cheifs and says, "...and I am pretty fast."

I'd like to see the F1 race a Bugatti.

The Bugatti can give the F1 a 120mph lead and still beat it to 200mph.

Also, for all you Top Gear and Fifth Gear fans out there, check out www.finalgear.com they have ALL the bit torrents for the shows.

Mine too. It used to be on Discovery channel, but the episodes were shorter and they left out alot of pretty cool stuff. I download the latest episodes off of final gear. The British version is way better anyway.

Whose idea was it to put an F1 against a car that costs about 1/25th as much to build and see which one is faster? I wonder what the outcome would be...

A Z-tune, on the other hand, will rape an F1... and a Veyron, for that matter. I'm sorry. I know I tend to go on about it quite a bit, but I just can't get enough of that car.

how can you be so sure? And besides, WTF is z-tune anyway? We are talking stock cars here. I'm sure that a race-spec F1 will rape that "world - famous" z-tune skyline. Even if the skyline is faster off the line, F1 or Veyron would certainly achieve higher speeds faster, because skyline has aerodynamics of a box

Don't forget about the twisties. As fast as the skyline is, it is never gonna be able to out handle a F1 or a bugatti. These cars are built to go 200+ mph and handle well at those high speeds.
