Formula One Car on Snow

After a big snow fall, I always want to take out the car to an empty parking lot to do some drifting. Well Nick Heidfeld did us one better! He took out the 720hp Sauber BMW Formula One racecar to a horse track in Switzerland for some fun. Of course you'll also have your mechanics put on some metal spikes on your wet weather tires.

Bugatti Veyron Top Speed Test - 253 mph (407 km/h)

James May, from Top Gear, tests a standard production Bugatti Veyron with 1001 hp to confirm manufacturers top speed claim of 253 mph. The test was done a VW's secret test track named Ehra-Lessien. You can see it here . This car is amazing, I just wish they would enter it in the 24 hours of LeMans. It's where true supercars are tested.
