Hennessey Venom F5 Revolution | COTA Production Car Lap Record |
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 мар 2024
- Hennessey Special Vehicles, the Texas-based hypercar manufacturer, has set a new production car lap record at the Circuit of The Americas (COTA) with a blistering 2:10.90 lap of the 3.41-mile-long racetrack.
For the record-setting lap, independent, third-party timing was conducted by RACELOGIC using their VBOX satellite telemetry and data logging systems. The Venom F5 Revolution that completed the fastest production car lap ran on street legal tires, used regular Shell pump ethanol, and was filled with standard Pennzoil fluids.
Right from launch, Hennessey set out to build ‘the Decathlete of Hypercars’. The objective for the 1,817 bhp twin-turbocharged 6.6-liter V8 hypercar was not only to surpass 300 mph, but to also be a highly capable track car. Driven by the manufacturer’s in-house test driver, David Donohue, the Venom F5 demonstrated the extent of its capability pulling up to +1.59 G in the corners and -1.61 G under braking. This extreme performance was achieved on street-legal MICHELIN Pilot Sport Cup 2 R tires and utilized Brembo brakes, carbon ceramic discs, and the latest Bosch ABS technology to brake from almost 200 mph safely and under control.
“Racing, and life, is often more about the journey than the destination. Seeing the Venom F5 take the production car lap record at our home circuit has been an important part of our journey with the F5. We don’t do these things because they are easy, we do them because they are hard. The process of pushing our American hypercar to the limits makes our team of engineers, designers, and technicians better while also delivering an enhanced product and experience to our clients. We look forward to continuing the journey and pushing the Venom F5 to set new speed records in the future.”

That car sounds like a monster
Enjoyable sound
It sound slike every other turbo LS car in the world...
Like a monster, roaring twister, may I add
I was standing trackside when this was running. It sounded incredible, even in direct comparison to the GT3 cars that were sharing the track at the time.
Nah more like a American Bold Eagle RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH @@SSCTuataraStriker
I feel like from this video that there is a lot more pace left in this car, it looks like it handled this track with an incredible amount of ease. Amazing achievement!
felt like it has no aero in the corners but 180 on the back straight over comes all.
There's not that much left out there. You're confusing the fact he's driving it smoothly. If it was pushed much harder the tires would be shot
No I agree. Even though the driver did an amazing job and drove so smoothly that it makes it appear slower than it is.... there is for sure extra time left on the track.
Hell, look at T1 and the turns around thr 1:00-1:30 mark. It is fast but just sorta meandering into the turns.
Watch the video again and look at the GeForce meter.
@@UnoDos96 That's because the car doesn't have full slicks and is running on road tires. A car with that much power cannot be driven to the extent of heating road car tires over their operating range. He's driving it to the limit of one hot lap. This is not a GT3rs, it's a car with the potential of spinning it's rear tires in every gear. Why do you think he's holding off the throttle until the straight when the car has the right exit to use the traction? It's the fastest way because it gains most of the time down the straight. If the driver pushed the tires on every corner, it would run out of grip for the exit onto the straights. I don't understand why some individuals don't fathom this. You can actually see by the end of the lap, the tires cannot do much more. It has more than three times the power of a Porsche GT3rs and weighs more or less the same!! What do you think this is going to do to the rear tires when. it's running road legal Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2r tires? The tread block is moving around like jelly with that kind of performance.
Lets be serious here although impressive, the car world only acknowledges nurburgring lap time records... Take it to Germany.
You know it’s gonna be like the Viper ACR break a whole bunch of lap records and save the ring for last.
@@G2Merica The Viper ACR was a beast tho. This however is just great for straight lines. And this track is basically straight after straight with a bit of very fast corners inbetween, so no wonder a car with loads of hp would take a record on such a track. Nordschleife is much more cornerbased tho, it would totally look like a loser there, it seemed like an elephant through some corners already on this track.
Rarely heard bullshit like that.
And I say that as a German.....
@@chrisgoat6435couldn't have said it better.
It’s their home track, that’s why they wanted it there.
.4 seconds faster then Czinger 21C, almost unbelievably 7 seconds faster then the P1. Insane
The P1 is 11 years old.
It was also ahead of its time in terms of technology also.@@Michael-pi8ps
@@Michael-pi8ps 7 seconds is still a lot.
@@poly_g6068 and you forget that there are almost 1000hp between them
@@zoulou1383 There isn't. This wasn't running 1800hp during the lap. Watch again
This car wasnt pushed all the way and thats scary, basically half of the lap off throttle, tyre didnt squeal once no late braking, literally coasting through the first S’s. Madness
You have to remember at full output more than 1550 hp, even at 7000 rpm.
The tires need to be able to handle that.
It is about what the suspension and tires can put on the road.
Awesome car.
Thank you for noticing that and on street tires imagine that thing in full race trim.... 🤔😱🤯
I wonder could have the gear ratio been changed too for a track with tricky corners like this
Yeah maybe... Or perhaps it doesn't actually have the downforce to go flat through parts of the track..
Seems likely for a road car with 1.5x F1 power @@divinasi0n
192 on the straight🤯🤯
And he didn't perfectly nail the previous corner either... The speed and time could both improve even with the same setup
193 actually
It's bloody fast! and then I realize the MotoGP boys hit 220 mph with ease. Mind blowing acceleration and top speeds on those machines!
@@Dinara1up With its full 1800hp if you reach a MotoGP, there it was only configured with 1100hp
"Why's he taking that corner so slow?"
*looks down and sees 1.4 lateral G's*
OH
Thought the same
Same-- that track is massive in scale, so everything looks glacial
F1: *ROOKIE NUMBERS!!!*
It's crazy light so I think it just handles braking and corners like a champ lol
@@dmitri546 Of course an F1 takes a corner faster than a street-legal production car. No need to compare.
I did a 2:13.9 in my R8 GT4 during an SRO race. Pirelli slicks. 2:10 on street tires is nuts for a production car.
would look completely different on a track like Laguna Seca or Nurburgring GP
Why?
There's definitely more in it. What a machine! Can't wait to see what is next.
That's what I said... he's not even trail braking! Let Max Verstappen drive it and 1 sec min will be shaved off
It can go so much faster, in braking areas, there is at least 4 or 5 sec. left on the tarmac...
I said the same thing.....he was driving it like he was afraid of wrecking a 2 million dollar car!
@@dennison1500or afraid that the boost would kick in ina turn lol
@@dennison1500 street tires
Looks like the Jesko needs to take a trip out to Texas some time
They never will, they’ll demand we bring this to Sweden. Sorry Koenigsegg, they ain’t got no BBQ in Sweden 🤠
Christian and the gang are more than welcome to come on down.
Never gonna happen. There’s a reason you never get drag races or official (or even unofficial) laps out of koenigseggs.
@@conor7154one:1 had a SPA record
3:55 that turbo spool is so niceeeee
Hello fellow lin gaoyuan fan
1.5 cornering g max and consistent 1.46's on factory tires 😳🤯
Love to see you guys still cranking on this. Sometimes it takes longer than expected but this looks epic.
*Hennessey Performance* Bravo well done, thank-you for taking the time to bring us along. GOD Bless.
ヘネシーこそが最もホットなカーブランドの一つ🥵🇯🇵🤝🇺🇸
Sure it is 😊
What an absolute weapon! huge congrats to John and the team!
Nascar Cup series record 2:11.59... Yes cup cars don't have as much power and are limited, but they are also on slicks purposely designed for that track. The F5 is on street legal tires. The P1... was 7 seconds slower. Wouldn't mind seeing Tavarish have the Stig take the P1 he's building to Cota on street legal tires and see what it could do.
129.635 (94.696 MPH) in the final round to earn his first pole of the 2024 NASCAR Cup Series season. But still amazing for the F5
@@x...CrankyOldMan...x With how much seat time around that track in similar vehicles? Vs a car you could buy and drive on the street with street legal tires. I am very curious what it would be able to do on race tires with a driver that has a lot of COTA experience.
Now That would be worth a watch....
who fcking cares about p1 lap lol
@@samogst 😎😂😂😂✌🇬🇧
Congratulations on putting in the work and making it pay off! I hope y’all keep adding to the lap record collection!
Can't wait to see more records. You have earned it.
3:59 0.4 seconds faster than Czinger 21C
But 12 secs slower than a Ford GT that recently set a lap record at COTA
@@RW-zh7klFord GT Mk IV not a regular Ford GT
@@RW-zh7klthis is for production car. That ford gt doesn’t count.
Needed twice the power to go that 0.4s
@@johnbucknell901the Czinger ran out of gear on the back straight and the Venom has 600 HP over the Czinger, but weighs 300 lbs more with a quarter of the downforce. It really doesn't matter. Two awesome, but very different approaches to speed.
You did that on street legal tyres. Wow. Just wow. Very impressive car
Congratulations! Such an amazing car, so well done.
Just from looking at the lap driven that day: There‘s A LOT of more speed and potential in that car.
Don’t get me wrong, the lap was quick, no doubt about it, but there were quite a few places where David didn’t push at all.
So I‘m really looking forward to see a lap faster than the 2:10.90min and yes, please bring the car to our lovely Nordschleife and let a Nordschleife professional on the steering wheel 😉
All the best from Germany 🇩🇪, Philipp 👋
Give Max Verstappen about 10 laps in that thing and watch the lap time go from 2:10.90 to 1:58
Big facts🔥🔥🔥🔥
Give sebastian vettel a lap or 2 and watch him bring it to 1 55. Max is an overrated snob
@@b3ing Both great drivers. Max would wipe the floor with Sebastian if we're talking current driving ability.
@@evirs current driving ability? We're talking about a retired 4 time WDC who partakes in casual racing when it suits him while the spoon child is in his prime. Current driving ability shouldn't even be considered in this case. Prime Vettel would wipe the floor with max. Sorry. Prime RICCARDO would be enough to wipe the floor with max.
@@b3ing now I know you're just a troll who knows absolutely nothing about racing in general. Feel free to not reply because I'm done with the conversation.
Well done. Thanks for the ride.
Man this pulls at my heart!!! Love the team work and excited to see top speed on HY 10 .....🏁
Looks awesome and sounds amazing!
Straight line performance is unbelievable. But in the corners I thought I was watching a warm up/cool down lap
1.4g in some if those corners.
@@Underpantsniper And?
@@Underpantsniper Track record and only pulling 1.4g in corners is wild
@@nickslidel thats about where the tires start slipping… can’t make it corner any faster. That 1.3-1.5g is in that mclaren/porsche supercar cornering ability. It also looks to be on a very conservative tune. Higher tune and pushing it more im sure a second or two could be gained. You’re not gonna see any crazy 2.0g’s plus without slick tires. This is what a fast car looks like on a wide smooth track. Its a road car its not gonna look like formula one.
the point is the car is so powerful it dosent need to push it 100% lol goofy guy dont comment next time
I definitely think there was more in this lap time, seems like there was times it could have gotten faster, i wonder how many laps they had to test.
I thought the same, he was coasting so much
yeah i totally agree. and yes, I know he was on road legal street tires but it definitely sounded like he was coasting
Great record! Want to see more of this car!
Incredible performance on the dry lap; also absolut nice design.. A real dream. (can be faster, with less turbo lag, a bit of weight reduction and with a faster gear transmission)
Looks like a "Conservative" driving lap.
Made in Texas.
Lap record with that driving? Impressive car.
It can easily go another 3s faster though:(
NICE! Congrats Team Hennessey!
Absolutely awesome, one of my favourite cars.
I think a good place to break the 300 mph barrier without leaving the states would be rogers dry lake bed. Now it’s on Edwards air force base in California, but the fact that you managed to reserve the shuttle landing strip at Kennedy I am confident that you could possibly test the f5 at Edwards. Also rogers dry lake bed was were the sound barrier was first broken by chuck Yeager. Many aircraft especially those that go Mach 3 have landed on that lake bed, such as the xb70 Valkyrie, the space shuttle and the x-15. It would be the perfect place for a 300 mph+ test run.
It probably needs to be done on pavement to qualify.
what about that stretch of road that koenigsegg used in nevada
@@bigguy4u989 too short
@@sarkaranishit's 20 miles long lol
What a goofy comment😂
William Byron made a 2:09.636 lap during qualifying for the Cota nascar race on sunday. Im suprised this car didnt beat that! Since it has much more power and downforce.
Street tires sure are limiting the Venom F5. Very impressive lap!
Hp isn’t everything the nascar isn’t street legal like the f5 is
Despite the way it may appear, it makes less downforce than a nascar does in its road circuit configuration, so the only advantage is really the power and weight. nascars also have signifigantly better tires, and they are race cars at the end of the day, its not that surprising
@@aceofaces1506 of course if the venom f5 is a huge success then they ought to make a Le Mans or nascar variant.
@@godzilla25_official2 this car aint eligible for nascar and its probably barely eligible for wec or imsa
Street tires vs slicks. Slicks would cut down 10 seconds off that lap
Hennessey is such a goatee company. Can't wait to see more of what you guys do
Congrats, very impressive!
Just watching the vid...I think the new Koenigsegg Jesko Attack will shave off 10sec from this laptime - lol
just brutal acceleration and amazing sound, congrats!
Side thought, just like running on goodwood, the car moves a bit, is it because of the suspension or just too much power to handle?
i think it has been setup this way for traction and straight line stability.. with an overtly stiff car unless you're on marble smooth tarmac 1500+ hp will be a... erm... challenge 😅
Bravo on street tires! definitely looks like it wants to go so much faster in the corners!
You guys make real cars. Thank you so much for being real. I wanna own one of your products soon one day.
Wow, that's impressive. Would love to see if Jesko could beat that :) (I adore both)
So this is at a lower map setting as the cars acceleration is down fron the run at the space center but it makes sense as 1800hp is hard to tame, congratz hennessey.
Saw one of those at Barrett Jackson back in January. They were revving the engine and making some awesome sounds with the nearly 2k HP.
The braking at the end of the main straight is phenomenal. 190mph to 60 in seconds.
What a monster
That's actually a mega lap, the Czinger is a weapon in its own right
It looks & sounds so good doing this.
Beautiful Mr Hennessey !
Please take that monster to the green hell. The nurburgring just had some improvements done last year.
We did a number of One Laps, with some of you Hennessey's and Dubler, that was a lot of fun, but you guys have one hell of a machine there, sure would be fun to drag it around here doing track days all summer, I was just thinkin.
Congratulations. Very impressive.
Production car? That’s pushing it.
The Voodoo engine is cool and all but 8K+ RPM from a crossplane twin turbo 6.6L engine is cooler I think lol
Voodoo is garbage compared to Venom F5.
@@FunTimeStudios82I mean, what type of comparison is that. Lmao
@@FunTimeStudios82Yeah because voodoo is a N/A Motor, The F5 is based off an LS/LT and meant for boost
@@FunTimeStudios82 People speak about the Voodoo like it’s the holy grail of V8s but the Fury engine seems super insane, hits a similar redline except it’s crossplane so it still has that American sound and it’s got two turbos strapped for fun lol. Just gotta love it
Nothing against how beautiful this record is, but I was at COTA this day and have to shoutout those Sebeco NP01's in the background. They were running 2:15's on street tires and were only 185hp.
Good on ya man!
bring the top speed record back to america
You yanks will never learn 🙄😉
Will you yanks never learn 🙄😉
Will you yanks never learn 🙄😉
I mean it kinda already is with the ssc tuatara hitting 295 mph but its not a offical set record
I thought it was official. I'm pretty sure Guinnes Records were there to verify it. @@bumbarossdundahae6312
The definition of "production car" has become so silly. This costs $2 million and they only ever plan on making 24 of them.
99 total Venom F5's are planned. 24 of the 99 are Venom F5 Revolution Coupes.
How is that different than what i said? The car in this video has a production run of 24 units. True or false?
So what do you acknowledge? Toyota Corolla?
@@AD-df5tm goofy kid thinks you need to make 100,000 for it to be called Production 🤣.. Why you so butthurt? You are broke and drive honda so dont worry lil sister
@@AD-df5tm L smartass
Utterly impressive what an absolute beast
The noises that turbo make are just intoxicating!!!
Lemme borrow one for the weekend I promise to not crash.
Proudly made in TEXAS! Badass! GO AND TAKE IT!
I may be a Koenigsegg fan-boy but I love to see some friendly competitors pushing one another forward. Great stuff guys, congratulations.
Congratulations!
I think I am in love with that F5 engine's sound, Hennessey. Want to hear that F5 screaming in Nurburgring, anyway.
but is it realllllly a production car?
Precision driving. Let the car do the work.
I drove the Venom only in RealRacing3, but I fell in love with it instantly
Next. Breaking the 300mph barrier 👍👍
Bugatti already did that a few years back
@@ethan8532not on a production car
@@ethan8532false, the Chiron they used wasnt a production model, and was fully gutted so it weighed MUCH less. closest a production car has gotten is ~294.
@@ItsJustBIaze That 294mph car wasn't even a production car as well.
@@ItsJustBIaze they made 30 of them so it's a production car

👍🇺🇸💪🦅
For freedom!!
that brutal v8 engine sound is best i ever heard
An amazing sound from the Engine, especially amazing for a cross plan crankshaft ❤❤❤
Nordschleife oder nichts
Hennessey is a changed man. Christian von Koenigsegg set the record straight on how to be a hypercar manufacturer, and ever since then John has clearly coveted Koenigsegg's respected, revered image and mindset, chasing it with ferocity and resolve. Something that probably just started out as hate. There's pride to be had in building fast cars and making sure the costumer gets everything they dreamed of, and even what they didn't. The legacy it brings is worth the effort.
That car grabs speed quick! Looks good in black.
That thing is absolutely insane! And still probably has a few more seconds to cut off in the lap as well🔥🔥
bet my life jesko absolut smashes this record to absolute pieces
or tuatara striker
Keep dreaming lol
Let's see them put it on the track
It probably would, but there’s nearly a 0% chance that car gets hot lapped at COTA unfortunately
Jesko absolut is for top speed record lol. It can't do a shit in tracks. For track, there's jesko attack. But it's not tested yet.
Take it to the Nürburgring and after that do a celebration run on the Autobahn
This.-^
I’ve seen one of these in person looks insane.
I really woulda traveled to see this… please host a live event for something like this next time pleasee!
Straight line car. American car.
Shout to all the neckbeard, couch engineers in the comments 😅
the most beautiful sound💎
Wow, I'm not a huge hennesy fan, but this thing is impressive. I can't believe how well it puts the power down, dude was putting 1700HP to the ground coming out of corners. Wild
Hennessey needs to invite the Competition and have a fun weekend of racing. I would like to see what the Bugatti Bolide can do along with the Rimac Nevera, Koenigsegg brand, Aston Martin Valkerie and so on...that would be fun and hear the commentary BRING IT ON HENNESSEY show them what you are and how they all stack up.
Almost 39 seconds slower than 2019 F1 pole lap. I know it’s an unfair comparison
I don’t believe the throttle telemetry, there is no way he was full throttle below 100mph multiple times and not spinning
Detuned maybe? For trackability.
@@RDJ1SS it must be
It’s all about the rev tuning.
Ever heard of traction control lol? Modern traction systems will do ignition cut and prevent the wheels from spinning
Don't believe it can't believe?
Congratulations
That is a very badass vehicle. After you get it all sorted out I'd love to see you take it across the pond and have a go at the Nürburgring.
'production car'....
Hater
How is it not? It's fully homologated from what we know.
Love the muscley engine note
Nice job my boy henessy
Crazy achievement...🤟
Wow! It sounds and accumulates speed like an LMP1 racer.
Never upset the car even the slightest. Got to think theres more in it!!
Nice! Alot of Jealousy...means you're killing it.
This car is amazing 👏 bit just imagine how fast it would be with a dct 🤯
