Claim of, World's Fastest: 270.49 mph (435.31 km/h) Hennessey Venom GT.
No run back = not the worlds fastest production car. 29 being made, 30 need to be made for it to be a production car.
But alas.. Hennessey aside, here is the video of the run.

Hennessey Venom GT
Some play it safe on the merry-go-round, others go for the thrills of the roller-coaster.

I have a joke for you. I have a prediction that you are going to walk into a bar, my prediction was wrong and your wallet is gone.

Re: Hennessey Venom GT
I bet it doesn't handle like an Exige anymore. I'd rather a Veyron if I wanted to travel at 400km/h.

It's very tough to find a heli that will do 400 km/h, most only have a top speed of about 250 km/h.ysu wrote:I'd rather get a heli at this point ...Exar Kun wrote:I bet it doesn't handle like an Exige anymore. I'd rather a Veyron if I wanted to travel at 400km/h.

...oh and the fact that you're actually allowed to do 250 up there!
