Obviously 1200hp is immense, and that has to be an experience to drive, but I'm not sure the looks department is doing it for me. I think I'd rather order one of those, and have it look completely stock and debadged. Sleepers FTW.

Ok they say 1200hp yet when they dyno tested it only did 1066 hp. little miss leading dont you think.

I guess VR1200 TTC sounded cooler than VR1066 TTC... I think the car is very cool. Got any more video other than the dyno pull??

1066 hp at the rear wheels = 1200++ hp at the motor.

You'll lose some bhp through the drivetrain, and once you're over a 1000bhp I think you have to be really picky to bring it up. Instead of coming up with smart comments why don't you go out and do what Hennessey have done!

No disrespect meant in anyway, serious question here:

John, do you all actually dyno the engines before installing them in vehicle? Just wondering because if it's dynoing at 1066whp, you'd think it would be more like 1300+hp wouldn't it? Alot of TT Gallardo setups making 1200whp on race gas are actually making like 1500-1600hp.
