Why Dave, what have you heard? :wink

And Frank...I dunno....some of your colleagues that run our tumor boards down here are quite witty...

I'm just sayin, the facebook homepage tells all.

Yeah....the black beast arrived Friday on a truck from OH with 1.6 miles on it, but I'm waiting for the clear bra install before I drive it.

You have to see this thing in person...pics just don't convey the stance it has. I haven't stared at a car this much since I got my GT in 2007.

Oh, that is SO Gorgeous. I can't wait for your indepth analysis of it. AND your in depth analysis (AND PICTURES) of your upcoming trip to Molsheim, France for your high speed run!!!! :banana

 

[DoctorV8]

Will do, Pro. The guys at TTAC will publish my full review after I get through the break in period. As for Molsheim...that will probably be this fall. I just spoke to the Bugatti rep. Gonna be the trip of a lifetime!

 

[jaxgt]

Molsheim, France - what is that?

Location of Bugatti. Someone must be getting a new toy!

 

[DoctorV8]

I was high bidder at a charity auction for a day at Bugatti's test track. They will pick me up from the airport in a Veyron, and I get to drive to to the factory in the car, on the their track, etc. It's the same package new owners get when they plunk down 1.1 million Euros for a car.

Should be the trip of a lifetime!

seen this beaut while in Paris last weekend in front of the Hotel Atheen.....

 

[jaxgt]

Holy sh-- Sanjay,
A day driving the Veyron. Do you need someone to ride Shotgun?
I hate to find out what that charity auction bid ran.
Congrats. I can't wait to hear about it.

Few more as things come together:

How does your turbo bearing oiling system work?

Those are actually flexible joints. Makes it easier to mate the exaust up to the waste gates after its all welded and its easier on the exhasut system to have something that is flexible in there.

BTW it looks awesome

It actually gives it some "GIVE" as your exhaust gets quite hot and expands and contracts. The flex pipe gives it some "WIGGLE ROOM"
