I know he had to pull the head atleast once, but I think it was just maintenance.

you're not referring to the venom are u? Because the venom has more than simple bolt ons to achieve what it is now. The suspension is a 2way (wow 2way!!) adjustable steel coilover setup, the engine is a venom TT kit with twin garrett turbos and a 522 cid stroker kit. Also has bigger rims(19x10 up front, 20x13 in rear), bigger brakes, etc..just more than what a viper could achieve with bolt ons

I am referring to Mark at TurboTrixs' Viper not the Venom as I really do not have any want for it. The Bugatti is a real car as far as I am concerned, not just top speed but it will do everything with comfort

i read somewhere that if you stomp the pedal, it does not produce all the HP from the get go so that you do not destroy the car. and it does 0-60 in 2.5 seconds. when i get home from work ill get the magazine, i forgot which one it was in.

Sign me up for the Viper > Veyron anyday. If they need 6 more cylinders 2 more turbos and 9 more radiators to go slower than a Viper thats their business haha Venom 1000 FTW

LSD and some humungous rear tires is just about all it has. The venom1000 is a car to drooooooooool over.

Just curious... how many of you:

A) Really think the Venom is faster than the Veyron in top speed?
B) Think the Venom is safe at 225+ MPH? Remember, the Viper was never intended as a 200 MPH+ car. Hennessey doesn't have a wind tunnel to optimize the aero of the car like Bugatti had.
