1200hp, 2685lbs WET, 1500lbs of downforce @150mph. Name one other supercar with those specs.

That is as much power as a Veyron Super Sport with 900lbs less weight. That will absolutely destroy it in a straight line.
It has the potential to match the Veyron SS in top speed and that is in no way the intent of this car.
I am sure you know how well the Viper ACR handles. Now consider that it weighs 3300lbs and produces 1000lbs of downforce @150mph. 600lbs less weight, 500lbs more downforce, and an active rear wing/air brake.

It conquers every performance aspect, instead of one or two.

 

A few comments from my perspective....

It looks EXOTIC!!!.....but seriously, i am OVER the all black wheel thing. Can someone please put a silver lip on these things - or make the wheels all silver or something other than "clean me" black?

As for the "stretched lotus" thing --- i cant get past it. Yes, its MUCH more than that but to me the lotus look just jumps out at me every time i look at the car.

The power to weight? OK, i have no comment here LOL.....i am sure the thing goes like CRAP....but doesnt a 997.2 Turbo S PDK? Throw some mods on that car and the 0-60 is like 2.9 seconds or something stupid. How much "better" can this thing be than a modded TTS or a UGR Gallardo? Just saying...

Overall, its sick and if i were ever lucky enough to see one in person i am sure I would oogle over it and take a picture on my iphone

 

It's awesome!!!!!

YouTube - ‪Hennessey Venom GT - Coming soon‬‏

 

Pearl, you must be kidding right? Just the driving experience alone is completely different here. If you know any better, the characteristic of the car handling around the track will far excel a modded TTS or UGR G. If that isn't the case, why would you even buy a Boxster Spyder instead of a regular S?

This Venom GT weights in at 2600 pounds. The above mentioned all weights in at 3500+. The turbo system on the UGR will only ADD in more weight and not reduce its weight. Yah is 4wd blah blah blah, but life doesn't just get stuck at 0-60. Wait till u see these bad boys do a rolling start at 100+ and look at which one will come out first.

 

Perfectly said.

 

Saw this car at FOS at the weekend, it's epic!

 

my first post

Saw this at Goodwood on Saturday
wow

I totally get the idea - take the Elise which has always been underpowered in its lifetime

enlarge it - like it was done by Lotus as one off
and the stick some custom power in it

Awesome

Can I ask you Sir - where to get the HD pro video of you at Goodwood

that last shot shows a HD Pro in the cockpit....
If id known could have lent you mine on the day which I had with me for some vids from the outside !
