Hennessey performance can make any vehicle set records, even if for some reason you want the fastest minivan on the road. Congratulations and keep kicking ass John!
please DONT omit the small stories and anecdotes. LOved them. Keep up the good development progression! Maybe misha can test drive the F5 at the nurburg with you shotgun :)
Hey guys I'm 63 years old and I could actually remember in the late 80s and early 90 reading car and driver and Motor Trend and seeing John's cars in the articles wow that takes me back two thumbs up John you have come a long way brother
American Hypercars? Only this car, F5 and the man behind it, John Hennessy fits the ethos. Many cars can be easily modified to large HP like how the R35 and Gallardos doing but a production car is totally different as it needs to meet different countries' rules & regulations. Its not just one straight line to the highest speed attained like those modified R35s and Gallardos, now this man, John Hennessy is making the track version which is totally different from just a drag race as the aerodynamics need to be superb, traction control & gear ratios arent the same from 1st gear to the highest gear in a straight line, as the car needs to brake, dropping gears , bend around corners at the best speed it can. As we know lower gear ratio good for pick up while the higher gear ratio good for top speed(with adequate power), so building a road legal and able to go to track hypercar(with all homologation tests done) is one big thing. Keep it up John Hennessy , love hearing and sharing your own experiences to us. Regards from Singapore 👍💪 Hopefully the Tuatara also able to do all these with good qualities and good reliability of the car.
Their own pick up and suv would be super cool. To see how they'd design both, what platforms they'd use, motors, supercharged or turbo, wheel break and suspension set up etc .. off road and on road versions or a multi use version? With how awesome the venom f5 looks, sounds and performs and how popular high horsepower performance based suvs and pick ups are now N keep getting more it'd be really cool to see a company like Hennessey make a "hyper suv or hyper truck"
I’ve been a huge fan of what Hennessy does. And as a Houston Texas resident, I’ll eventually become a customer. You can tell when a car is built out of pure passion, and regardless of the price tag of your cars, it’s worth it. It’s smiles per gallon 😂. You guys are amazing
I honestly think that American motorcar engineers are incredible. They seem to make more focused, more reliable machines that manage to achieve incredible performance figures with aplomb, and without the over-engineering that we see from other countries.
Does the Revolution have 285/35r19 front tires and 10.5 inch wide front wheels ? Does the top speed record focused F5 have an option for 245/40r19 tires on 9 inch wide front wheels for top speed runs ?
I, too, have a world class private road course 😏. Congrats to John and the team. It’s amazing what relatively small teams of passionate people can accomplish.
Hennessey performance make any car set records whether it is Venom F5, or Corvette or Camaro, or Mustang or TRX, or Raptor or Bronco or Challenger. Every vehicle of Hennessey performance are unique in there own way. Keep it up, love from India 🇮🇳 to Hennessey Performance.
Absolutely astonishing vehicle. It’s really fantastic this is all American. That really means a lot! Congratulations for designing, engineering, and producing what I believe is the gold standard hypercar of the world.
MICHELIN is such a great & pro high perf tire company ,they love this kind of adventures & record settings like the Hennessy people...they recognise when the challenge is worth it.
Let me finish your statement John, YOU ARE TELLING US THIS, BECAUSE YOU ARE ABOUT THIS CARLIFE!! You are about it, 10 toes down. Me and many probably would never be able afford your beasts but we as car enthusiasts appreciate.. we solute you sir 🫡

Don't say it too loudly porsche may come to snatch that record with their taycan
Pretty sure boostedboiz have 2 of the fastest vans currently
*minivans
A trip to Germany and a lap around "The Ring" is in order!!
I guess they dont want to get embarrassed, thats why Koenigsegg is not attempting again...
@@chrisbo_phtgrphy ABS switch failure .....learn to read.

@@chrisbo_phtgrphyAwfully presumptive of you. It couldn’t possibly be any other reason
@@chrisbo_phtgrphydoubt that. They’ve taken it around tracks before

I prefer when you make longer videos. Please make more!
I appreciate stories like these. Thank you!
Congrats the venom f5 is insane and it is my favourite car
No Chance there against the Germans..

Evel Knievel must have felt you were destine for greatness, making dreams come true.
That Evel Knievel story is way too cool...
Fabulous. Huge respect for your effort, from way over in New Zealand. Awesome engineering.
So happy for the Hennessey team.
What a badass 'murican machine.
Be proud. You've earned it.

I'm A big believer of this Company. So Jhon please make it reach 320 miles and make them broke all .🤝🏽
That story with Evel Knievel, is legendary.
Some great stories you told. Thank you!
Get on it guys! You got this! Not even working up a sweat!

We need more stories like this about John Hennessy
You guys never disappoint! Always great work.
I remember driving by y’all’s shop back when you were first getting started. Even then we would stare over to see what you were working on.

That Evil Knievel story was cool.
I've watch a lot of his videos and I'd just like to wish you well and all the success Mr. Hennessey
Great John!! Hennessey performance in action! Keep that Pennzoil flowing!

Bruh..😂
Most of this car was built in Britain!
@@srinitaaigaura that’s the Venom GT not this car
@@sandwich8989Venom F5 is built by Delta Motorsport, an UK based company. It's only assembled in the US.
Does the Revolution have 285/35r19 front tires and 10.5 inch wide front wheels ? Does the top speed record focused F5 have an option for 245/40r19 tires on 9 inch wide front wheels for top speed runs ?
Maan I woulda done anything to come by and take pics of this…. public event soon!
Enjoyed the backstory 🔥 great work
NOW WE NEED THE TOP SPEED RECORD
Appreciate the backstory you shared. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
that F5 is a beauty!.
Great story and thanks for sharing!
American cars have come along way in the last 3 decades when it comes to handling. 👊🏻
Awesome, any plans to put it on the Nerbergring?
I’m always happy when engineers succeed. Thank you John. 😊
Hennessy should get into F1!!!!
I, too, have a world class private road course 😏. Congrats to John and the team. It’s amazing what relatively small teams of passionate people can accomplish.
Amazing Story
From top speed records to lap records!
WHEN I WAS A KID ,,, MY DAD BOUGHT ME AN EVEL KNIEVEL STUNT CYCLE TOY SET IT WAS FANTASTIC !!!

Awesome! Always like hearing updates on the F5.
Loved this video!
Ugh! That car is gorgeous! I love the styling! It looks better than most Lamborghinis and Ferraris I’ve seen!
Love all of these videos and the Venom F5. Thanks John for all the stories!
Absolutely astonishing vehicle. It’s really fantastic this is all American. That really means a lot! Congratulations for designing, engineering, and producing what I believe is the gold standard hypercar of the world.
Bro thinks we don’t wanna hear him talk 😭😭 i love this man
Such a badass looking car with the stat sheet to boot. Hot dayum. Much respect.
John didn't stir the pot ,he dropped a F5 in that MF
Y’all are absolute rockstars, keep up the hard work! I would love to have a vehicle modified by y’all someday. God bless Texas!
Loved the Evil Knievel story!
Richard Holdner ❤ The F5 is amazing. The F5 Revolution is nuts.
That white one looks beautiful!!!
MICHELIN is such a great & pro high perf tire company ,they love this kind of adventures & record settings like the Hennessy people...they recognise when the challenge is worth it.
Grace patience and performance 👍🍻👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Without a long enough runway, Breaking a two-way 300mph+ Speed record is gonna be very hard. But you got this..❤
This company makes a killing selling their products. One of their mechanics has an 80k tool box with another 80k of tools inside 😮
Great story
You guys are great if I had the money I would own Hennessey.
Thanks for the detailed update!
Most old dudes retire and play shuffle board, this dude is makin one of the fastest and most extreme cars on the planet💀
We need a ballot initiative for this November that ensures that the Venom go to the Nurburgring 😅
That’s the most awesome Evil Knievil story! 😁
Glad to see an American company battling the automotive royalty, and winning!!!!
John is such Legend sadly it so car is so limited I most likely will never see one.
Awesome video!!! And great stories!! 🏎️
Excellent work.
Cool stuff, amazing technology with performance in the USA! How about that!
Great news, love the long form vids
Matt Watson from Car wow!! Said that F5 is the second most comfortable car he had driven besides the Buggati Chiron!!
I remember the needle being on the letter H on a 8 month old 78 Gold Special Edition Trans Am with no helmet and with the seat belt on.
It’s like keeping up with the Jones’s No style.Texas wrapped up in a nutshell
Nurburgring next please!
Please we really need that Top Speed record run
8:43 I still have that magazine!
"Climbing up that mountain" - uh, that is usually a reference to Pikes Peak. Just sayin'... 😁😁🤘🤘
Koenigsegg is testing as we speak so that F5 might sure gonna cry later this year.
Road America is where this monster would decimate all. COTA is amazing. Road America is amazinger 🤣
I love Koenigsegg, but I am rooting for the F5 to break their top speed record.
Unfortunately for me, the only people able to afford the Venom F5 Revolution will be Koenigsegg owners.
Me too. Why? Merica lol
@@G2Mericaat least it’s less expensive than a Bugatti. Faster too
This car always looks incredible. If you're ever hankering for someone to come to Texas let me know. :)
Le Mans, here we come.
They even slapped a Viper V10 into a PT Cruiser. Insanity!😂
🔥🔥🔥
That has to be a Formula 1 driver that has his own course!
I like new panel gaps Tesla gave us, now everyone is doing it
That F5 is sick.
Let me finish your statement John, YOU ARE TELLING US THIS, BECAUSE YOU ARE ABOUT THIS CARLIFE!! You are about it, 10 toes down. Me and many probably would never be able afford your beasts but we as car enthusiasts appreciate.. we solute you sir 🫡
You are the best
Would be interesting to see F5 on Lightning Lap 2025!
I swear, if I ever win the lotto I'm going to purchase a Venom F5 Revolution and race the crazy out of it.
My favorite Hypercar thats out right now.
Big big win
Venom F5 it's very beautiful and amazing car❤💪
Laguna Seca is gonna be interesting. The corkscrew should give it a run for its money. I just hope the driver stays safe
Sir John will or would you think of taking this Sweet vehicle to Nürburgring track to see how it Does?
Unreal!
nice story john! nice life have you lived! cograts and.... cheers for that monster of f5 revo! wtf!
Gran Extraordinary Venom 👉👍 Para Verlo Con Un Maclaren Senna GTR 👍👉💪
Would love to see nurburgring lap
Hennessy would be the next person to open a 1/4 Dragstrip in the Houston area. Hopefully soon?
