En pratique, a dans les premieres 2 min il se plante a cause d'un nid de poule, un joint de dilatation mal foutu sur un pont ou les ornières dans le chemin.
Je serais stressé de poussé un GT40 de 1965...mais un GT 2005 ou 2019...pas sur ca m'énerverais tant que ca.

Stability must be a concern at those speeds... Even this car had heavily modified aero vs the regular Chiron to be able to handle these speeds. Pretty amazing..

ou Roger dans la voie de gauche a 116 km/h parce ce que c'est ben assez vite comm ca...
For the Ford GT maybe...but the chiron: the aero have been modified to reach the goal..not to handle the speed...the car was already designed for it.

I was talking about the GT, but yes you're right the Chiron was modified to reach these speeds, not to handle them.

Intéressant:
The reason the Chiron was slower at Ehra Lessein than Bugatti estimates it would've been in Nevada has to do with air pressure. Ehra Lessein, situated in Lower Saxony, Germany, is only about 164 feet above sea level, whereas the section of Nevada State Road 160 used by Koenigsegg is around 3400 feet.
Bugatti explains that as air pressure and density decrease as elevation rises, the force of drag acting on the car at speed also decreases. The key term here, though, is "at speed," because at normal road pace, the difference is pretty small. When you're approaching the 300-mph mark, however, it's a different story. If you want to see all the math explaining this phenomenon, check out Bugatti's press release, but if you don't, just know that the lower elevation at Ehra Lessein isn't an asset. That said, Bugatti concedes that greater air density at low elevation helps the Chiron's quad-turbo W16 breathe better.

Then Bugatti should let Koenigsegg use their track for free to see if they can beat them.
That would be fair game
