Wait for a straight bit of road and for the veryon to start bearing down on you, leave a gap on one side and when he goes for it swerve in front of him, he'll brake sharply and you'll not only pull away slightly but bugger up his high speed run

Or you could always bash him off the track

When I was doing the S class races against the Veyron I had a 360CS with every available upgrade but it still didn't make a difference, that Veyron made it look like I was standing still

You could try upping the downforce in the AERO section of tuning to give you a bit more grip in the corners, and try shortening your gearing so that you almost top out on the fastest section of the track, therefore giving you max acceleration everywhere else

You'll almost certainly be geared for way more than you'll ever reach on any of the tracks bar perhaps Le Mans

The downforce makes a big difference, with ~770bhp my 360 was very skittish, my Carrera GT and the 911 race car you get at level 30 or so were both nigh on undrivable on cold tyres and hairy on hot tyres without more downforce

Got me a 920bhp FXX now and that thing sticks like glue, stupendously quick in a straight line too

it's all wheel drive so it does give good grip and doesnt spin up much when you stick the hammer down.
