This would have to be one of the funnier threads on this forum this year. I still can't believe people are seriously trying to compare a Falcon with a Mclaren F1, let alone a Bugatti Veyron.
Motor must have had a couple of hits from a crack pipe before the run, I've been in a falcon at over 260 and it had better manners than a XC at 160. A cars aerodynamic efficiency will generally stop it from going faster before it will send it moving laterally.
