They'll say it isn't an official record because it wasn't down twice -once each in opposite directions. Or they'll assert that it isn't a production car because there's only a couple dozen Venoms getting built (vs a few hundred Veyrons).

Even though it was never official or recorded, The Bugatti was already knocked off the Top speed hill... The Agera R pulls on the Vitesse like there is no tomorrow!!

I would like to see the Agera R do an official top speed run!

Bugatti's official WR wasn't done in two directions either, but on the VW test track, driving in a single direction, and the car that did it, had his speed limiter removed for the record attempt...

Yeah, would be nice to see if it gets close to it's supposed 285mph top speed... (it did 249 on the Ring already on the straight)
