i was telling my little bro about this car, i saw it in a car mag awhile back, but couldn't find it on the net, THANKS!!!

any links to the specs on the car?

<EDIT> that site lists the specs at only 9xxHP, i thought it was 1400 according to the mag i read.

Is that 247mph pure estimate speed or observed? I doubt any street tires can handle that.

Haha, Hennesey sounds seriously jealous, with his "paltry" 800hp. :)
Look for big things outta that shop pretty soon, those car tuner guys DO NOT like to be outdone!
