Sep 23, 2014 – Veyron vs LaFerrari drag race, filmed at Vmax200 EVOmax event on 20th September 2014. A standing start over just under 2 miles of runway.
Mar 28, 2015 – Hypercar heavyweights go head to head at Vmax 200 Stealth, the Ferrari LaFerrari and Bugatti Veyron! The Italian boasts 950hp, the Bug still has 1001hp but substantially more weight to it; with the slightly damp conditions the AWD helps substantially though.
At the speed traps set almost 2 miles down the runway, the LaFerrari reached 206mph, with the Veyron clocking in 214mph!
On a later run the Veyron also managed to make it to a top speed of 224mph when it had dried up more.
The Lexus LFA goes up against the Porsche 918 Spyder at Vmax 200 Nine Eleven, hosted by Auto Vivendi at Dunsfold Park, the home of Top Gear.
With the regular Vmax format on the runway, we jump onboard the Lexus LFA for the inevitable to happen with the 918 flying ahead. However credit must be given to the fantastic sound of the LFA’s glorious V10. A huge thanks to the LFA owner for taking me on the run, and equally the 918 for joining the fun!
Top Fuel driver Larry Dixon walked away uninjured from this spectacular crash when his Top Fuel dragster went out of control and crashed near the finish line during Saturday’s first qualifying session at the Amalie Motor Oil NHRA Gatornationals. Dixon was checked and released by NHRA emergency service officials at the track.
