    Remember how special the Veyron was when it was new? Imagine you finished your studies, went to VW and somehow hear about your company planning to BEAT EVERYONE and you end up on the project building THAT. Imagine how it must have felt to achieve everything you set out for? No wonder they loved you for treating it with respect!!

      @@Shahzad-Khan I don’t think you get the ethos of this channel. Sure the people who appear may have stories of gas guzzling vehicles. However you have to remember those stories aren’t just about the cars, take for example; John Ficarro, he likes to talk about the strategies (cheats) people used in different races, designs of vehicles, and some right knowledgable or even qwerky things. Like what it is like to work with make up companies for adverts even if they expect the colour of the vehicle to change within a heartbeat. “This can be red.”
      You had lady Pam, who told a couple stories about CannonBall, being in the ambulance that hardly worked but when it did they came up with a story as they were pulled over by police about some royal being in the back and they couldn’t use helicopter.
      With these stories you aren’t getting a few more Bugatti sales, Ferrari, or even Tesla.
      Without memorizing these stories, they sadly die with the person. If you ask me, that’s actually really sad. I’ve only scratched the surface, but you really don’t have a clue do you.
