Hennessey Venom GT: 725-Horsepower, 2,400 Pounds
Yep, those are some pretty ridiculous numbers, which in turn should yield some even more ridiculous numbers when the Hennessey Venom GT actually hits the test track. For now, all we have is a new set of photos and promises that Hennessey Performance Engineering (HPE) will build up to 10 Venom GTs a year for customers willing to part with roughly $600,000 for the privilege. A pretty expensive proposition for sure, but then again, the Venom GT will likely be one of the fastest supercars ever built given its power-to-weight ratio. The monstrous horsepower number is delivered by none other than the supercharged LS9 V8 that provides a mere 638-hp to the Corvette ZR1. And if 750 horses isn't enough, HPE says it will offer twin-turbocharged versions with 1,000 and 1,200 horsepower as well. The feathery curb weight is due to an all carbon fiber body and an aluminum chassis. The cars will be built in England after HPE ships over the finished engines from its artefact in Texas. Expect to hear more as the Venom GT get closer to production.
