Um. Whoa.

More like....Um...DURR!

I had a pretty good feeling that the plane would win but I was very impressed by the Bugatti's performance.

The Bugatti Veyron is one impressive machine. Even though at a price of $1.2mil USD it's kind of ridiculous, it is still an amazing engineering marvel. Just reading up on the little features that are in this car just makes me drool...

What a fantastic post - loved the clip. Top Gear is just about the coolest program on TV.
Go Eurofighter!

I think that they are both very impressive machines... Bugatti has accomplished just about the best automotive achievement to date (IMHO - I'm a big Bugatti fan). Doggone I'd love to drive (or even ride in) one!

I was actually surprised by the outcome - I figured that the tables would have been reversed (after having read so many statistics on the Veyron). Cool vid.

very cool. What'd he say...0 to 100 in like 5 seconds? Reminds me of my 1990 chevy cavilar, with the A/C off I could do 0 to 60 in just under 4.5 minutes. ;)

Guy:- Fighter Pilot.
Girl: Lets have sex.

Nahh. That's considerably longer than it takes.

Girl: - he's wearing a flight suit.
Girl: let's have sex.

Very fun video. I like when he says things like this is the best drag race ever and if it looks really cool, that's because it is.

Then in the post-coital glow..

Girl: So, what fighter do you fly?

Guy: I fly a C130, a cargo jet.

Would "I design fighter jets" do just as well?
Or what about "Interventional Cardiology"? Cause that essentially what I do, just not a doctor (R&D for a medical device company). :)

Go buy a bomber jacket, cut your hair short, and keep your mouth shut. ;)

Oh, and spazmo? The C130 Hercules is a 4-prop plane, not a jet, so you're in even bigger trouble with that!

Guy:- I'm in Interventional Cardiology.

It doesn't seem to have the same ring to it, but why don't you give it a shot and let us know.

Of course for mine it would be....

Girl:- so what do you do for a living?
Guy:- Well, I can't really say, we tend to peeve off alot of people involved in questionable activites, but we don't get to carry guns or badges. So we're a little concerned about these people finding our offices and killing all of us. Hey where'd she go......

So I imagine that I wouldn't impress anyone by telling them that I sit around all day making paper aeroplanes, then?
