There is one question that needs answering, did the Veyron go round the track? A simple yes or no, no lap times please.

No! images/smilies/cry.gif
On their hp they mention the stig driving it though, so hopefully they're just saving the lap for the final episode of the series...

I have found that most times when something is brand new and you search, it won't come up, but if you scroll thru the torrents added today or use find it'll be there.

Nice. Not to drag this off topic, but I had a 9000 Aero before the BMW. May I ask what mods you've done to the 9-5? images/smilies/smile.gif
