Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Wet Bugatti

[LarryT (l02turner]

Don't know if this was mentioned before but I came across a video showing 
the Bugatti driving along  10 -20 seconds before the  Bug. went into the 
water.  I wonder why they were filming ?  Did they know the car was going 
into the water?

The video is on the Comcast.net news webpage.

IOW, was it staged?  seems like a dumb thing to do but stranger things have 
happened -
;-)
