Yes the Bugatti was going ALL OUT because that was what he was here for. Transmission in Sport mode and mash the pedal 100%. On the return-way he of course did not give 100%.

Why no standing start? We wanted to do it but then we would have to support the Bugatti owner with a new set of Michelin Pilot Pax tyres (€25 000) and we did not have those means readily available. But we can always set up a crowdfunding for it if you are up to it? Email me gustav@gtboard.com

From 50 km/h (the start) the cars go through the gears. Agera S shifts at around 50 ms. The Veyron does not shift at all, it just changes clutches (double clutch, DSG), interruption time 0 s. The more the speed increases, the more time between the (fpr Koenigsegg timeconsuming) is the need for shifting is needed. The Agera S does not need to compensate the shift times with faster acceleration between the shifts. Agera S frontal area: 1,87 m2 CD 0,35 Veyron frontal area: 2,0 m2 CD = 0,42 (lowest possible). Better acceleration at speed. And also +30 HP and -500 kg does also help.
