plane quick Bugatti Veyron

It's show time!! We finally made it to the 9th Middle East International Motor Show over the weekend. There were around 400 displays of the most exotic, speed racers, hybrid, and latest car models from auto makers worldwide. I took lots of pictures of course, so brace yourself for some motor show entries for the next few days because I will share with you what we only see in a car magazine.

Because the show itself was fantastic, I like to start my entry with a blast by showing you the hottest speed car today as it recently raced against a Eurofighter jet. Yes, my dear readers, we saw the Bugatti Veyron right here in the Dubai. Here is my very own snapshot:



In what was possibly the most exciting and ambitious race ever filmed, the presenter of a famous motoring show in the UK pitted the Bugatti Veyron against the Eurofighter Typhoon jet. Television presenter Richard Hammond, drove the 1,001bhp,407km/h Veyron in a one mile race against the hi-tech plane.

His opponent, the RAF's typhoon display pilot, Flight Lieutenant Jim Walls, flew the jet which can produce 18 tonnes of afterburner thrust and has a top speed at least twice the speed of sound.

Veyron gave the Typhoon a tough fight, but eventually lost out to the multi-role fighter plane.
