There is no way that car traps 147 with VTG unless they shaved off huge weight of the car.

My tiptronic with GT30 ran best 10.2 @141(750 AWHP) full weight.

the Bugatti Veyron traps 140mph. By most 1/4 mile calculators it would take 900+ whp to hit 147mph with a 3700lb car (including driver). Maybe the rollout is skewing the trap

Regarding trapping 140, I trapped 148 at 830 rwhp in my 996TT, and 141 at 750ish rwhp in my GT2.
