Default Rare Bugatti Veyron 1/4 mile footage!

Hey guys,

we got some great footage of a bugatti veyron. We got to chat with the owner for a bit, he was actually a really cool guy. it didnt take much convincing to get him to run it down the strip lol.

Enjoy!

The only Bugatti 1/4 mile I've seen ever! 140mph speed is nuts! Idk why but I didn't think this car is fast in the 1/4, it just looks so bloated and heavy

I love how there's no whistle, whine, loud exhaust, or even whoosh from the bov. Just sounds like a LOT of air

They are crazy fast all over. But for 1.7 million it better out shine every other stock car and most modded ones. Lol

I would suspect most people don't buy Veyrons to run down the 1/4th lol
