Perhaps he's part of a Neo-Nazi cult? Some strange stuff goes on in Florida, I've been there a few times.
technically, Charles Manson never killed anybody. he had teenagers do it for him. practically a cult. very smart idea i might add.
How come you only talk about the straight line speed the cars can achieve? Handling doesn't matter?
This brings up an interesting point, as I think Elmo187 really like to have absolute control over threads. In fact, it is that way with every thread he starts.
Apparently, you failed to look at this one..
Its a concept. Handling is not really a subjective measurement, so it would be difficult to predict how well it handles. I have absolutely no clue if Hennessey can setup a cars suspension correctly when he does everything himself, so I am gonna say that it will most likely not be a Ferrari in the bends.
To me, calling something an Exige S on steriods when the handling isn't the main advantage/plus-side, is an insult.

Whoa, take a breath there bud :lol:. It seems like we're repeating the same thing over and over in response to your posts. Let it go.no, what i'm doing here is trying to keep this thread UNDER control because it seems like everybody is keeps repeating the samething over and over again about how he's a crook actually had a Viper built by Hennessey and are EXTREMELY mad over it because they didn't get there car back in one piece.
Nonsense... if the Exige is so fast around the track with a ~200hp engine,
imagine how fast it would be if it had a jet engine with ~3000hp.
In fact, they could make it an off-road vehicle, and go as fast with TWO ~3000hp
engines. Now that would be a great exige S. Only it would be better if it looked like
a pick-up truck from Ford.
oh....my.....fucking.....god.....
this thread needs to die already.

See children, this is why some people should not be allowed to make threads.
John Hennessey is the greatest person alive.
We showed you an initial concept sketch of the Hennessey Venom GT last month, and the tuner best known for building ridiculously powerful Dodge Vipers has released another pair of pics, this time showing the mid-engine concept's rear with its retractable spoiler both up and down. In our previous post, we mentioned the undeniable likeness that the Venom GT shares with the Lotus Elise, which is also on display from this angle. We can also see just how extreme the car's design is, with a carbon fiber rear diffuser that we're sure isn't just for show and twin tail pipes that exit up high between the taillights. Carbon fiber skirts also peek out the sides below the massive air intake for the mid-mounted twin-turbo Viper engine and the extra-wide air extractor vents behind the front wheels. It seems clear to us that Hennessey intends to make a go of building its own exotic, just like Saleen did with the S7, and we hear two cars will be built to show potential customers in 2009. With a power-to-weight ratio of 2.7 lbs. per horsepower, a 2,700 lbs. curb weight, and an estimated 0-62 time of 2.5 seconds, we don't expect the Venom GT will be a tough sell.
Fucking Lotus copiers. If Lotus were given the same engine, they would blow that Hennessey out of the universe.
