Patrick SchalkMar 28, 2012 Yeah Hennessey and HightechCorvette are great channels on YT.
Devin BabynMar 27, 2012 Haha just read this off the Top Gear page on FB. Right when I saw it I wondered if carbuzz heard yet
Zachary MaurerMar 27, 2012 I didn't think the ford gt made that much ho
David JusticeMar 27, 2012 A positive Ford article on Carbuzz?! Sure has been a while. LOL
Description: Obviously this was no ordinary Ford GT, as it once had both a twin-turbocharger and a supercharger before Hennessey added their own magic touch. Basically, the tuner decided to drop the supercharger f...Add Comments13
Justin TuckerMar 29, 2012 Well there is a tuning company out of palm beach Florida (I forget the name of the shop) and they have 1700hp ford gt that did 1 mile an hour less....so they managed 1 mph more with 300hp more....not impressed really
Igor NatsioksMar 28, 2012 Bugatti standing mile is around 220 mph. With having 1001 hp. So give it a 1000 more hp like this GT and it will blow this record!
Tj MartenMar 27, 2012 Looks like that hatch he hit was for the chute
Mario CallirgosMar 27, 2012 Ya 266.98 in florida. Fast car in the standing mile, and just 3 mph slower then the fastest bike and the bike had a wierd body kit.
Daniel PichaMar 27, 2012 I saw this thing in person this past weekend and it is a beast!!
Kaigan VinerMar 27, 2012 @Mario I thought a Ford GT did the standing mile around 266 mph too. I think it was last year. Might not have been the Texas Mile though
Sheldon CouchMar 27, 2012 I'll take one haha, def would take that over the Bugatti and not feel remorse one bit. Considering you can buy two of those cars and a huge house and have money to live off of for the Bugatti
Jhoan Koolin DelimaMar 27, 2012 Am I mistaken or did he go through just only 5 gears?...
Mario CallirgosMar 27, 2012 I thought heffner built a ford gt that hit 266
Devin BabynMar 27, 2012 Top Gear says its got 2000hp to. So I'm pretty sure it does if it's from that many sources
Luke BaileyMar 27, 2012 @John, I saw that too on another website, so I think it does have 2000, which is insane....lemme at it!
John SerelyMar 27, 2012 I read at motortrend that John Hennessy himself said that it " would conservatively make 2000 horsepower". (It is just what I read, so don't hold me to it lol)
Description: Hennessey also just released this video showing Kennedy behind the wheel setting the record. Chances are the Brazilian driver from yesterday would have been killed if he tried anything like this in hi...Add Comments0
Etienne SurretteMar 28, 2012 And you've got to make a killer choice. Paint chipped to hell or a bra. And I don't think they make those for Veyrons.
Westly BurgosMar 28, 2012 I'm sorry, @Micheal, did u just call the Bugatti a daily driver? Really? Have fun with that. Cruising on the interstate in 2md gear. Not to mention insurance, not positive but I think they have a limit on miles per year.
Jason ReimannMar 28, 2012 I'd rather have the Bugatti at least that's street legal
Michael BeachMar 28, 2012 This is in no way a dd car like the Bugatti
Abraham MendozaMar 27, 2012 Yeah, the Bugatti does sound a bit...boring.
David GrayMar 27, 2012 Sure it's a great car, with an amazing engine. But wtf is with the paint job?!
Oscar GalvanMar 27, 2012 Love the car hate paint job
Matthew ReindorpMar 27, 2012 Not sure wether to love it or hate it
Ben MinerMar 31, 2012 Kelly Bise has a 2200 hp car and it's not hideous (LMR CAMARO) he went 256 but started smoking, I think he blew a head gasket.
Duncan GibsonMar 29, 2012 I just hope it's not an original
Devin MortensonMar 28, 2012 I agree with Ty when you have a car this fast you can paint it how ever you like because who your racing will not even see your rear end
Matthew ReindorpMar 28, 2012 If they had made the background on the wrap more simple then it wouldve been amazing... Shame really
Ty PiperMar 27, 2012 When you have 2000hp you can put whatever the hell you want on the car haha
Tim PreisingerMar 27, 2012 Hopefully it looks better in person...
Carlton SalmonMar 27, 2012 I've no idea what the images are on the wrap apart from making a good car look crap!
Tim NeelyMar 27, 2012 Is there an unwritten rule that if you have a really , really , REALLY fast car you have to make it look totally revolting?!??
Chris PenzaMar 27, 2012 I don't like the paintjob. Looks like its from nfs prostreet
Patrick SchalkMar 27, 2012 I'll take the GT AND the Z06 in the back.
Dillon DixonMar 27, 2012 I wouldn't want any other car to hold the record. 6 years old and it still can be the top dog! Hell yeah!
Matthew ReindorpMar 28, 2012 Haha and where would Ferrari be now if ford still owned them... They wouldn't of made the Enzo or F40 or the F50... All celebratory models that would have been done by ford designers
PetrolheadjackMar 28, 2012 ford never owned ferrari ? It was because the gt40 beat the ferrari at le mans
Abraham MendozaMar 27, 2012 That's because Ford owned Ferrari back in 67!!!Or was it 66?
Matthew ReindorpMar 28, 2012 Tbh the demonstration they did of getting into it was stupid... Why would you take it to the shops and park it in a small space?
Kaigan VinerMar 27, 2012 Should say GT 2000 now instead of GT 1000
Matty MichaelsMar 27, 2012 Anybody else think this looks like a horizontal guillotine?
Yeah Hennessey and HightechCorvette are great channels on YT.
Haha just read this off the Top Gear page on FB. Right when I saw it I wondered if carbuzz heard yet
*hp, I was typing to fast
I didn't think the ford gt made that much ho
