Watch A Koenigsegg One:1 Blast Its Way Up To 240mph

Last week, the One:1 was in the headlines for what looked like an attempt from Koenigsegg to take the production car lap record at the Nurburgring.

In other news, TeamCT was in attendance at this particular VMax event with the EmojiTR, fresh from its epic Gumball 3000 journey. Stay tuned for the full report from CT CEO Adnan’s attempts to crack 200mph!

Growing up on a diet of World Rally Championship highlights and lengthy Gran Turismo 2 sessions, a life in cars was as good as inevitable for Matt.

Not all heroes wear a call

We need a longer Runway!!! that car has a lot more potential guys

Like the one from fast and furious?

Electronic limiter…. Apparently

I have liked this car more than the Agera ever since it was unveiled.

What a hipster. Liking limited edition exotics over every day exotics… who woulda thought.

Im probably going to sound stupid, but why cant they rent a long ass runway and topspeed it?

Either they didn’t found a long enough or just locked down by selfish VW (which just for Bugattis to enter, kind of)

There are just a few runways in the world and most of them are private, like the vw one were Bugatti set the record with Veyron, they are not dumb to let another manufacture to overtake their records.

Because long runways are hard to come by. This one is about 2 miles, which is about the limit for a rentable runway. Anything longer is usually unusable for cars or just not for private use. It’s a shame really!
