Hennessey Teases New Top Speed Record With A Look At The Past



Still, we should not allow ourselves to be desensitized from the spectacular achievement that the Venom GT managed to pull off. 0-186 mph took just 13.63 seconds thanks to a Chevrolet LS7 7.0-liter V8 supplemented by a pair of turbochargers to produce a mesmerizing 1,244 horsepower – all of which went to the rear axle via a six-speed manual transmission.
