RE: How fast is the Hennessey Venom GT? Err... very

Bit off topic, but the dials look really cheap and nasty. As does that electronic readout below them actually!

They're just a modified stock Lotus dash setup..... You'd think they would at least put an AIM dash in for $1,000,000.00

To be fair it is far from a stock elise the WB is a full 8 inches longer as well. I cant wait to see this during the texas mile. Like him or hate him his customer have put blistering speeds up in modified Ford GT's and vipers

A few months ago I had the opportunity to spend a few hours with the Venom whilst it was testing at Bruntingthorpe.

It's an awesome bit of kit. Unfortunately I didn't get a chance for a passenger ride that time as I was too busy filming, but will hopefully get a ride in the next one.

The driver in the video posted in this thread was probably John Heinricy who worked on the handling and engineering of the car and he definitely knows his stuff, so the car will definitely handle well.
