The "Bugatti team" apparently brought a Saleen S7 Twin Turbo with them.

"Here is his story:

“This also where I saw 2 Bugatti Veyrons parked with another pristine one arriving. Two of the Veyrons had a lot of on board data acquisition systems (more wiring than a small company network room) and another appeared to be in full production trim with protective plastic covering its entire interior. The Bugatti team also bought along a Saleen S7 with them, not sure if it was used to provide some relative comparisons.”"

"The Saleen S7 is clearly a Twin Turbo. The Saleen S7 is currently the most powerful production sports car on the planet. Bugatti clearly must us this car as a benchmark to make sure it makes appropriate use of its claimed 1,000+ horsepower. We should see the Veyron show up very soon in production form, based on Ganesh’s photos of the plastic wrapped interior."

I hope Saleen makes the intercooled version of the S7 twin turbo like they said they may. That thing should be crazy. Do you think the Bugatti guys actually own that Saleen?
