Hennessey Venom GT is one of the most famous cars. The coolest thing about it is that it can beat up the Bugatti Veyron with a blink of an eye. On Valentine’s Day 2014 this car set a new world speed record for 2-seater by achieving a top speed of 270.49 mph (435.31 km/h). The record was performed at the John F. Kennedy Space Center on the 3.2-mile Space Shuttle landing runway.
The Director of Miller Motorsports Park, Brian Smith, made the achievement because he was behind. What is left unment

Building a 290mph-car is not a great success, but creating a road-legal one is an act of heroism. Hennessey has already topped 270 mph (435 km/h) with the Lotus Exige-based Venom GT back in February, this year. Now, he announced the Venom F5 (named after the most powerful tornado on the Fujita scale) which will eventually do over 290 mph (466.71 km/h).
John Hennessey commented for Top Gear: “I think something in the 290 mph range will be possible”, when he referred to the upcoming model.

However, the Veyron Super Sport still stands in Guinness Records as the “fastest production car” in the world with 431.072 km/h (268 mph). This won’t stop John Hennessey, who has always wanted to steal this reco

Hennessey Performance (HPE) has broken two sensational Guinness records. The first one is “Fastest Production Car from 0 - 300 km/h” and the second “Fastest Production Car from 0 – 200 mph”. The “tool” was a street-legal Venom GT supercar.

Hennessey has released a new clip, where their Venom GT does 370 km/h. The acceleration is sensational. The small car is way faster than Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport.
