[QUOTE="sakuraguy, post: 2414244, member: 6441"] Going fast, that was the focus of this test. And at day's end, we had another command performance from a Hennessey Twin Turbo Venom 1000. This time, his Viper proved its mettle by upsetting the seemingly invincible Bugatti Veyron in the sprint to 200. And with that kind of power comes an exclusive clientele, one that includes NFL football player Mario Williams of the Houston Texans, who was on hand at Lemoore for our test. http://img406.imageshack.us/img406/1585/finalpd8.jpg So how does John Hennessey manage to have so much success? It boils down to excellent preparation and some killer Vipers. They simply work, as proven by Millen that day, who did a fantastic job driving these wildly diverse cars with little practice in each. Sums up Steve: "I'd say the Hennessey Viper is by far the most spectacular car I've driven today, but the Veyron is the most impressive, from a technological point of view." In this, our second trip to NAS Lemoore, we can look back with satisfaction and state that we had four cars hit the magical 200-mph mark — and one, the SLR, come painfully close. That's impressive, proving once again just how much power is needed to push all that air aside at that speed. Even at the Indy 500, the cars need to do two warm-up laps, a distance of 5 miles, to reach their qualifying speeds of around 220 mph. Makes us think we should head back to Lemoore next year for another memorable Memorial Day. [/QUOTE]
