When is the official top speed test? I’ve been waiting for over 7 years! Lol.

No but seriously. I’ve been waiting 7 years. Itching to see a top speed video!

This is the best way to tackle this. A test-run, a discussion, and future goals.
not quite 300+, but seemingly considerably more transparency than another company's initial run

So nice to see Hennessey giving honest updates throughout their development of a car that 99.999% of us will never own but are gearheads invested in watching the development of an American hypercar. I would love to see vids of this car inch closer and closer to 300MPH. I hope none of the owners attempt a max speed run without a firesuit, HANS, and a parachute.

Y’all need a longer runway. Would love to see what this would do with a few more miles of space

[LocoKilaProductions]

That sounds amazing. I can't wait to see it break that 300 mph barrier. I have been following along since day one. The original venom was and still is one of my all-time favorite cars right next to this generation. I wish I could afford to get behind the wheel of the original and next generation venom!

[Sharpshooter]

I mean dude shifted at 267 and still accelerated to 271 that quickly. I think 300 should be no issue

[charlesrocks]

Texas has a super car…and it’s venomous.

What an amazing machine, John.

[KenRougeau]

Did he shift at 250? Holy Hennessy!
Just watched again. He shifted at 267. He has a WHOLE GEAR LEFT! Whoa 😮

[RamblinAround]

Been waiting for this one. Looks and sounds badass! Awesome work!

[blakeanders]

It sounded like it stayed in a single gear from 100 to 180. That’s insane.

[santinoevans]

Dont care how long you guys take.

Im here for it.

[andycade]

Just met John at Goodwood Festival Speed today. What a cool guy and big thanks for letting my son sit in the Venom F5, he will remember today for the rest of his life! It's a truly stunning car and sounded fantastic going up the hill breathing fire.

[KHRacing]

I’m really proud of the Hennessy venom holding up to the hypercar standards, i would love to see it break 300mph, but I’m glad this car is nothing too lie about

[Dara-ihjq]

29 mph doesn’t seem like much but at those speeds that last 29 mph to reach 300 is absolutely an enormous hurdle to overcome. I really hope they can pull it off. I know how long and hard they have worked on this and unlike Bugatti they don’t have a billion dollar company funding them….. it’s a reality tiny team of people who just love performers cars which really makes you want to see them on top. A bit of a David vs Goliath situation.

[RedMo]

Engineers: How badass do you want this car to sound?
Hennessy: Yes.

[bmxfruit]

2:21 that 6th gear flyby sounds mental 🥰

[jackchitty]

Seeing the prayer gave me even more faith in your company. Cool stuff John and the Hennessy Team

[HAHA.GoodMeme]

A real american Hypercar. So badass. Keep it up John, you're getting close now.

[anthony.van]

Maybe some GoPro stabilization is at work here, but that looked incredibly smooth for a hard-charge up to 271MPH. Really impressed by the Chiron-like stability, can’t wait to see this thing stretch it’s legs up to 300+

[teemo]

Keep up the good work John and the whole Hennessy team 👍💯🙏
