I have found this virtual drag race between some extraordinary cars.

(just download from this link to your desktop and it plays automatically.)

You can also view from different angles.

Enjoy! images/smilies/mrgreen.gif

Yeah... that's kinda wierd.

Why would you want to watch a "vitrual" race anyway?

epp_b · March 26th, 2007, 6:28 PM

If I didn't know any better, I'd say you were a spammer/virus troll.

araracd · March 26th, 2007, 6:29 PM

It might be interesting but this smells fishy! images/smilies/sad.gif

Peter3hg · March 26th, 2007, 6:31 PM

It isn't a virus or anything and it is quite incredible how the Bugatti just drives away from them all once it gets going.

essentialatom · March 26th, 2007, 7:23 PM

It's not a virus, I tried it. It's quite cool.

In other news, I just bought a new PC.

It just kinda puts the cars into perspective. The Mclaren F1 was actually pretty close the Veyron's time.

Ilpav · March 26th, 2007, 7:58 PM

How could it be a virus when I got it from the MotorTrend website?

epp_b · March 26th, 2007, 9:30 PM

It doesn't matter - it was an executable file.

BlaRo · March 26th, 2007, 10:48 PM

Jeez, you guys are paranoid! That's a really cool video program thingy, I wish you could record camera angles and make your own video.

carsim.com...I remember when they did the virtual test drive of the Mustang vs. the Camaro. Kind of pointless, as if there wasn't enough hype for the latter already...

Hey, have this big ol' cup of virtual anthrax.

No. Never download a .exe or .dll file.

Well, exe, no, but a dll isn't executable unless you put it some place where an application will use it.

Narcolepsy · March 27th, 2007, 12:15 AM

I (stupidly) downloaded it - but its fine - no problems to report - its benign. No virus symptoms or odd processes (thus far)

Here's the page on motortrend's webpage, for those frightened.

xtasy127 · March 27th, 2007, 3:59 AM

dude thats cool :O look at the ford gt hehe

Capacious Boot · March 27th, 2007, 6:59 AM

Yeah, I've seen this, got it off the Motor Trend website a while back. It's safe.

I'd like to see them do a 2 mile drag race. Then we could really see the difference between the Veyron and the McLaren.

It's alway better to post the source like this. But i'd still take it carefully.

Shawn · March 27th, 2007, 9:12 AM

I scanned it and it was fine. The proggy is kinda cool. Really only interesting for 1.4 minutes.

Buktu · March 27th, 2007, 11:46 AM

Yeah it is kinda interesting.. images/smilies/smile.gif

But i would like to see a longer run.
