So its actually a Proto 1000 then? That clarifies alot, I was under the understanding it was a Proto 850.

Well...the "PE8XX" names for Proto cars are actually names that I created on this forum. Todd doesn't even have official names for his kits. Whatever you want to call the OP's setup, the car makes 800 to the ground on high boost.

That said; I'm sure that on mid-boost it's indeed a PE850.

At the time it had non ball bearing GT28's and previous owner's best 60-130 on this set up was 7.0 and me having those Turbos on my last set up, I could only punch out 6.14 seconds out of them at 1.4bar. We all know Bugatti's 60-130 is sub 6 People make a lot of stories out there and claim a lot of glories. P box data never fails
people do talk about things they dont know...

that is my car that was running the veyron on GB in 09 outside of flagstaff, az. and we got arrested along with another 996tt.

i have an UMW 800 kit with regeared cup car tranny and every suspension piece down to the subframes from a cup car with no rubber in the suspension. i had cheap *** hankook tires and brent, the owner of the veyron who also lives in dallas where i live, did not eat my car for lunch in any way shape or form. as a matter of fact he would not pull up next to me for an honest race, not that i blame him too much after we had just got bailed out of jail, after that he stoped in dallas and i never met up with another veyron on open highway the rest of the way to miami.

i walked every single car on GB that would line up with me. there was not a gas station one that the drivers woudl not come up to me in amazment because i walked the so badly.

the closest i got to racing a veyron was on a 2 lane road coming back form the grand canyon and the veyron was in front of me and i could not give it all i had or i would have rear ended him and the on comming traffic was too much. when we stoped for gas he was like what the f* is in that car. we were going to run on the interstate and he got pulled over as we were turning off the 2 lane road onto the interstate. there is a video of it on youtube and you can see me pull away as the cop stops everyone.

if anyone begs to differ, im in dallas and would meet up anytime to see if im wronge.

just in case anyone doubts me, here is a pic of laren begg, blue shorts, from 911design helping me, camo shorts, wash my car and truck after he did an alignment on the porsche.

Art, then what is the word on that little race between them.

is this the car:

that is me driving... and if you notice i had the prior years stickers on my car since i showed up late and was lazy and left them on all year since the previous GB. all the other cars had silver stickers.

And here is another point in the veyrons favor. How many 996/997tt's GT2's have run faster than a veyron on PUMP Gas? which is where the veyron lives, not on race gas? To my knowledge the veyron does not have a race file selector switch. This GT850 puts out that power on race gas if I am not mistaken. Could it have taken the Veyron on pump gas? I've said this in other threads. We can't compare our cars on race gas to factory supercars on pump gas. If you race an Enzo and you are on C16, did you really see if you can beat one when he is on 91-93? I don't think so. But that is IMO
and another tid bit, i was running 91 octane in az if im not misaten, not even 93!

Yeah you really can't compare a modified car to a stock car, there are cars out there for much less than you have in your Porsche that would eat a Veyron for lunch but that is still comparing apples to oranges. The Veyron also has a unique ability to be quite stable at very high speeds.

Can you name a few? Supra? handles like crap compared to a gt2 or turbo.
What else? Gallardo? cost as much or more than the GT2, so that one is out. Not sure I can think of one short of a crappy handling drag car. For less money than a turbo or gt2 you will not get a complete package.
