Velociraptor Anybody?
« on: August 20, 2013, 07:10:57 PM »
I'm going to have to get one of these Hennessy Velociraptors.

Maybe two.

Or ten.

Possibly 50.

"for $70 grand out the door"


Looks like fun if your the kind that can afford to use $100 bills to light your cigars
I cant possibly think of a worse investment for your money though.

Would you like to put that to the test?


Chevy's are nice, but they cant beat a Velociraptor.

Go ahead and get a Silverado 2500 and do everything the guy did in the video, then go get your Duramax sponsored by multiple companies in rally races and then go get multiple TORC wins, just like the Raptor has.


I'll be waiting.


Oh wait.

the raptors are pretty impressive trucks right from the factory. there's not really a lot that needs to be done to these at all. performance-wise, it's probably the best pickup out there right now.

 you don't need to mod a stang these days to hammer just about anything out there....short of a vette, or euro stuff that costs much more...... :aok

Stock GT500 Super Snakes have about 660 Horsepower while ZL1/ZR1's have about 580-630.

Ford is pretty much beating the crap out of the competition these days.



Too bad Dodge fell way behind. The new Chargers/Challengers suck it harder than the Camaro and Corvette.

All I know is John Hennessey be crazy.  

The Hennessey Venom GT proves it, who else would think    "1,250 bhp in a Lotus?.... Yeaaaaa... that sounds reasonable."  

**yes, yes before the internet "experts jump all over me, I know that there is very little 'Lotus' left when Hennessey is done with it.**


I'd guess it's an ego or bragging rights thing for him, since he can now say they build a production car that will destroy any European supercar.

 the gt500, and the gt500 supersnake are 2 different vehicles. the gt500 is entirely built at fords plant, and is rated at 662hp. they run 12's, and will get into the 10's with very little work. they run the road courses equal to, or better than the zl1.
 the supersnake, is an extra option on top of the gt500. for that option, it's shipped to shelby in kalifornia, and he does his thing. those i think are in the 800-900hp range.

 the camaros and corvettes don't suck. not by a long shot. the camaro is a very respectable car, that i feel chevy dropped the ball on, as they're EASILY capable of making it sooooo much better. but as they are, they are still VERY impressive, VERY good cars.
 the corvettes.....those are still in a class of their own......
