Watch a $1.5m sports car drag race against a $65m jet fighter. The Bugatti dominates in top speed against all sports cars, motorcycles, but what about state of the art fighter aircraft? This Eurofighter Typhoon is the best competition against this supercar Bugatti. This is rediculously amazing, I can't believe it takes a fighter jet to run with a modern supercar. Wow. Discuss this article at Team-BHP!

Let's take a look at what counts.

2008 Eurofighter Typhoon

• Twin engine
• Canard-delta wing multirole aircraft
• Used by countries around the world
• Maximum speed: Mach 1.2-1.5 (1141 mph max)
• Cieling: 65,000 FT

2008 Bugatti Veyron

• 8.0 (7993cc)  W-16
• 987hp / 920ft.lb
• Top speed of 233mph
• 64 valves
• Four cam shafts
• Four turbo chargers
• 86mm x 86mm bore& stroke
• 4486lb curb weight
• Full time four wheel drive
• Haldex Traction system
• 10 radiators
• 1/4 mile 10 sec @ 144mph
• MSRP: $1,500,000.00 USD

It's pretty obvious that the Eurofighter is going to win. But by how much is what I find interesting.

Suggested affordable alternative to Bugatti Veyron:

The best bang for your buck in the quarter mile is not what you think. It's not the traditional high priced exotic. Take into consideration the all-wheel drive models offered by Subaru and Mitsubishi. Two sedans, the Lancer Evolution and Impreza WRX-STi can be heavily modified to win against the Veyron for a fraction of the cost by running a record setting 7 second quarter mile. Read more about modifying imports to get exotic speed. Let's take a look at the race footage and then comment below your thoughts.
