this is really impressive up close and in person...

 

First time I've come across a GTR in a residential, and it's a Hennessey? Damn, there are some RICH people in San Diego

Ford just donated a bad ass truck to Mike Rowe Works, customized by Hennessey Performance, to help Mike raise money for the next round of work ethic scholarships

compliments to John and Hope on the 30th anniversary of Hennessey Motorsports!

anyone else find it as hard to believe as I do that Hennessey has made 10,000 vehicles?

they started modifying cars in 1991, which was long before I was aware of them.

This Heritage Edition Mustang sells for 50k more than a base stock Mustang.

Steven Tyler, has a Hennessey Venom Spyder, and is auctioning it for charity this Friday (Jan 20th 2016)

The 1,451-horsepower twin-turbo V8 sold for 1.3 million USD new, and is one of only 12 to Venom to exist, but the only convertible

Janie's Fund aims "to bring hope and healing for many of our country's most vulnerable girls who have suffered the trauma of abuse and neglect."

When “Janie’s Got a Gun” – which touched on the theme of child abuse – was released in 1989, Tyler was overwhelmed and inspired by the thousands of letters he received from his fans – fans who had experienced neglect and abuse themselves. It prompted him to launch Janie’s Fund – a program to support girls who have been abused and neglected, giving them the resources they need to heal and, as Tyler puts it, “the tools they need to get on in this crazy world that we’ve got.”

As bidding soared past a half-million dollars, the rock-and-roll legend took the microphone to add a few extra perks to the bid package: a weeklong stay at his mansion in Maui and a guitar signed by every member of the Aerosmith band. The crowd roared in excitement as the bidding war escalated.

the SUV hyper horsepower race just got competitive

they announced a week or two ago that the Grand Cherokee will get a Hellcat engine

now, Hennessey Performance say they'll have a 805 hp Escalade which will get to 60 mph in 4.1 seconds, en route to 12.2-second quarter-mile

the Raptor is a good off road truck.... but Hennessey improved it, and called their upgraded version, the Veloci Raptor

If you weren’t aware, 2016 will be a year that Ford doesn't build a Raptor, so in case you just can’t wait for the 2017 model to come out, Hennessey Performance decided to put their magic touch on a 2016 Ford F-150 and make it their very own.

Hennessey Viper GT sets a new world record for fastest car, beating the Bugatti by a hair

Stuff a Vette engine into a Lotus and make globs of power, then tweak the aerodynamics til it's clean, and get a really long runway.

the Hennessey Venom GT achieved a top speed of 270.49 mph (435.31 km/h) at the Kennedy Space Center on the Shuttle Landing Facility’s 3.2-mile runway.

The Hennessey Performance team was able to utilize the Shuttle Landing runway via the Performance Power LLC Space Act Agreement which is a collaboration with manufacturers and race teams alike to utilize the shuttle runway for the purposes of engineering validation, safety, innovative product design, and aerodynamic testing.

A representative from VBox USA, world-renowned maker of engineering data-acquisition systems, was on hand to independently verify and document the vehicle’s aerodynamic performance.
