Just out of curiosity, how would a Veyron on slicks fair at Le Mans? No other modifications other than safety.

I would guess, bad! Suspension, brakes etc etc is just not race ready.
Other than that the Veyron is HEAVEY!

I'd expect it to lap somewhere between GT1s and LMP1s in terms of a lap time, based on a guess at the compromise between oodles of power and smaller tyres.

So it would wipe the floor in GT1....
























....right up until the point they slapped a tiny ickle air restrictor on it wink

The Bugatti was useless at Le Mans - nowhere near the front.


OK, so that was in the drivers parade on Friday evening but... wink
