So who thinks I should try to convince the big man to trade in his Veyron for one of these puppies?

Weak that every Veyron automatically sends speed info to the factory automatically every time you shut down the car. Whats up with that?

It only does if you turn traction control off, or if you insert the 2nd key... both actions are not needed for hooliganism. Single key, as is, is easy enough!

Dude, who is going to own a Veyron and NOT insert the second key? Which begs the question, when you drove the Veyron, did you get to use the full car's power or did you get it in single key mode? I bet it's fast as hell in single key mode, but second key mode must be insane!

The first key still has full power, the Dyno Guage was getting close to peggin' a few times!

The 2nd key unlocks 200+mph, and unlocks the mode where the wing comes super far out and the car lowers. (to get ready for the crazy speed you're expected to hit.)

TC button is under the dash.

Maybe, just for today, we should change the sign to "Reserved for Oppo Owner"...

Dealer just dropped it off. If I'm lucky, I'll be the one to take it to its home later today.

That sound... So unmistakable.
