@@hashbrown4278 Well it's been 10 years, By this rate if VENOM achieve the 300mph speed i will not only look stupid, I will be more than stupid coz by that time ill be too old and suffering from dementia.
Another well-done video. Great job Rory. This car is the stuff of legend. The Hennessey team should be very proud and know I am and I had nothing to do with this car's development. I too am proud it exists. BTW, I am been following this car for a while but Rory's great explanation of its details makes me appreciate all the intentional engineering that went into it even me. Again, well done!
Excellent review and choice to buck the trend of all other auto journalists and offer us a street level view of this very sharp looking ride. Every other review has only outlined the F5's power delivery on a straight run. Hat's off to Mr. Hennessey.
It really makes you admire the engineering in the Chiron. A child could drive this car to 300mph in comfort and yet this thing is an animal just to get anywhere near it. Certainly hasn't got anywhere near the refinement but if they crack 310mph and force Bugatti to come back out of retirement, then I'm all up for it.
@@xzrex6908 not really. Practically yeah it's pointless but financially it's a jackpot for manufacturers. Charge 7 figures or whatever all the rich guys will want one because it's the fastest
When i hear Rory asking "is 1800hp too much?", I start wondering, if people always questioned that. Like when the first car that had 100hp came out and could go like 50, if at all, have they been like: "Oh boy! Can you believe that? You can go to the grocery store in 5 minutes! Should this even be legal?!"
Jay Leno talks about it on his show. When the Viper first came out with 400HP, people marveled and believed there would never be a car with more horsepower built, ever…boy were they wrong!
1000+ hp should be the limit on road cars. Anything above that is a red alert for immediate fail. Not only safety concern but the mechanical integrity of handling the stress. No wonder why the 5000hp Devel hypercar is still a myth.
It is otherwise the same as a cup 2. But there are layers of actual carbon fiber in the rubber of the tires used on the Super Sport 300+ for additional strength. And Michelin is ready to offer it.
Like someone else said I see rory I click I don't I thumbs down, I don't mean anything mean by that. Just my personal preference and opinion Rory is why this channel is being viewed atm. Ofc who made it famous before idk I only discovered this channel to follow rory when he wasn't in top gear which is a shame So thank top gear and rory for me and other new subscribers Good video, I admire Hennessey drive to make his own niche in today's hypercar world. Not my thing but respect to him
What are you talking about , as far as i know only the external composit chassi was design and built in England, is that the whole car? Where was was the engine made , and the interior and rest of the car ? So how does it work ? The car is fully assemble in Texas and acording to you that means that they built it complety and then disassemble it to be shiped to the states ? So a complety mounted car can't be transported ?
10:45 good point about the TCS. A well designed traction control can make even very high HP RWD cars launch and stick like they have AWD now. Just look at what Nth Moto and Calvo can do with Motec TCS on Vipers that have way more power than the F5 and can still hook up and pull hard at 50mph.
@@Stevensalcido Its designed in the US and built in England. Big difference, just like iphones are designed in california and made in china. Manufacturing and assembly lines arent hard especially for a low volume car like this.
@@KG-kp3le you are wrong, Hennessy paid delta wing in England to design and manufacture the car the same as the Ford gt and multimatic in Canada, the only American thing the car has is the engine
Seriously the most impressive car ever. I mean those seats, are you kidding. And the fact they put pieces of a space shuttle in the key fob. Absolutely outlandish. Dream car right here! 🤘
Inconel exhaust valves is pretty impressive. That stuff is redicuolously hard to machine and has some incredible properties. That and the entire monel line of amalgams are the best metal for corrosion resistance known.

Not only this car is a true hurricane on the road , add to it Rory in the presentation and you're good to go for an absolutely epic video, and of course huge thanks to the camera crew for their unbelievable job of delivering an outstanding shot !
Top Gear got rid of Rory, for reasons that don't quite make sense, and now you have the frankly puerile and limelight hogging antics of McGuinness et al! Makes you wonder as to what qualifies as informative entertainment. Bravo Rory, I work in the supercar sector and normally have absolutely no waking interest in car channels....until you came along!

The Rimac would slaughter the Venom on account of being AWD. Beyond 200 mph.....the Rimac gets slaughtered. Electric motors have punch, but not the top-end push to outrun the most top-heavy ICE powerbands. At least, not yet.
@@mitchell-wallisforce7859 every other EV yes but the Rimac has maximium torque all the way to 258mph, where the SSC and the Venom can both top that speed easily but has a gearing ratio that slows the rate of acceleration to achieve the top speed.

This is the epitome! This is the definition! Don't tell me there is anything that beats this ultimate of all sport cars. The only American car in the group of hyper cars.
At the 2:13 mark he say´s "..it is quicker than anything". Well, the Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut has numbers that the company itself can not believe. When that car goes full speed sometimes in the future, their record will stand UNBROKEN, until another Koeningsegg enter´s the stage......... But this Hennesey Venom F5 is of course highly, highly impressive. No doubt about that!
@171.79MPH You are completly ignorant. To your information here are som facts: 1) In 2005 CCR reached a speed of 388 km/h. This speed beat an 8-year-old record set by the McLaren F1. 2) The CCX model sat on the popular BBC program a new lap record when it completed a lap in 1:17.60 in Dunsfold, England back in 2006 3) In 2011 The Agera R model broke the world record accelerating to 300 km/h in 14.53 seconds. At the same trial, it also set a Guinness World Record in the 0-300-0 category at 21.19 seconds. 4) In June of 2015, the Agera RS blew past the Agera R’s 0-300-0 record, clocking in at under 18 seconds. This came out to an improvement of 3.24 seconds. It also boasted a strong improvement in the 0-300 km/h category, posting a time of 11.92 seconds, another new record. In september 2017 the Agera RS set more records in Nevada. Most notable among them was an average top speed of 447 km/h, a new record for a production car. And on the SAME day, two hours later, sat a 0-400-0 record of 33.29 sec 5) I may add that in September 2019, the Koeningsegg Regera broke the Agera RS’ record for fastest 0-400-0 km/hr time. It beat the Agera’s time by 1.8 seconds, going from stop to 400 km/h and back to zero in 31.49 second And we have not even started to talk about the Koeningsegg Jesko Absolut, which is capable of out of this world speed....
@171.79MPH And your point is?? In 2005 they beat the old speed record, set by Mclaren F1 on the 9 km straight line at the VW Ehra facility in Wolfsburg Germany. McLaren drove their car ONE WAY. Koenigsegg did it at Italy's Nardo Prototipo proving ground which is a circular track with a circumference of 12.5 km. This means that the car is driven in a constant turning motion, which makes the exercise and speed even more impressive. Loris Bicocchi who is a veteran recorder breaker, drove the CCR. A team of Nardo Prototipo technicians independently verified the speed of the CCR. The car was clocked using Tag Heuer´s Splitmaster 650 with photocells stationary at the track, recording the average speed during 1 km. The official Test Report was issued by Prototipo, acting as a third party verificator and was forwarded to the Guinness Book of Records for processing. You are THE little fangirl here! Next time do your homework before boasting nonsense. Are you ignorant? Absolutly!
@@GAVACHO5150 You are probably right. But to be fair, the Koenigsegg Jesko Abslut has not yet showed what it is capable of. But I expect that it is going to be spectacular, and in the +300 m/h territory. The Tuatara, for all its qualities, has "only" done 295 m/h so far..... And then you have Hennesy Venom F5 with 1814 hp...... Crazy stuff!
I'd take Pagani Huayra for looks and stuff the engine for this Hennessy for performance... But Bugatti adds a cherry 🍒 on top with luxury and Comfort... So much to process to make a decision 🤣🤣
That arrow in front of the wheel is to drive air into the brakes, keeping them as cool as possible. Just look at the placement of the exit channel above the arrow, it points the air directly at the inside of the top of the spokes. Once that are gets disrupted by the spokes, it would be a big cloud of air covering the entire brake assembly... Keeping it cool if they were trying to stop the air to flow around the wheel, they would just have the smoke covered by a flat plate, that would be mounted to a ball bearing, and waited at the bottom. Keeping it stationary, so it to can have arrow, allowing the air to pass by the wheels without causing any additional drag... Much like the McLaren Spoedtsil has.
@@william_SMMA if you can’t have a conversation in ur car hyper car at driving speed then mate it isn’t refined. That car will be great on a track, if the tyres hold up, but on a normal driving road ur going to suffer. It’s technically great to achieve some insane numbers but no it isn’t refined.
@@DroneStrike1776 am not disagreeing. But they were also very much more than just top speed. So then the F5 needs to be evaluated from that point. The comparison point shouldn’t be the Chiron or any other modern hyper cars. For the record I think the F1 and the F40 are two of, if not, the greatest cars ever built so I don’t if that’s fair to the F5. Am not dissing the F5. I am just struggling to find where it sits.
@@DroneStrike1776 Yup, all unrefined garbage as well I suppose. By that logic, the C8 Corvette is a better and more complete sports car than the Enzo or Carrera GT as well.
Interesting car. But the Hennessey name has been ruined for me ever since he scammed Viper owners years ago. If I wanted a very special car, I'd go with Koenigsegg
Beautiful car, love it. The led daytime running lights in the headlamp look cheap though, they should have used a continuous linear led design instead of early 2000s style led dots spaced out.
A yoke might be a great idea if it the turning ratio was progressive so that it felt normal most of the time but you had full lock when necessary without needing to take either hand off the wheel.
It's half the thickness of standard household aluminum foil, and about a third of the heavy duty stuff. I think it's impressive to be able to form the badge out of that material. Probably very difficult and takes many failed attempts each time.
Now there is a car that's worth every penny..... Bugatti, who ? 0 -62 mph = 2.6 sec 0 - 124 mph = 4.7 sec 0 - 186 mph = 8.4 sec Top speed = 310.69 mph HP per tonne = 1,311.9 HP All on the rear wheels.....meet the new widow maker.
@Alex Alexander Anderson BS? These are facts. I struggle to understand your comment as your comment seems to have NO factual bases. Are you saying the manufacturer's statements are B.S ?
looks 2 much like a kit car, 2 sqaured in the rear. an expensive street car should have a luxurious interior, as the interior in no way affects performance. it's way 2 racy inside, that thick boxy display is horrendous.
I heard cars going 300mph before in PR talk. I need to see it to believe it, also this can't be good at high speeds being so small and light. At least we know the Bugatti is safe and scandal and also not a lotus .
@Alex Alexander Anderson Yes certainly Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut definitely has the ability, more hp and more aerodynamic than the Agera RS, two very important factors for top speed!!! And stop replying from multiple accounts, Mr. Valkyrie 007!!!!
Over 95% of the people that buy one of these will never get it anywhere near V-max. At the end of the day, Hennessey specializes in selling vehicles to win dick measuring contests.
@@Briggsian 🤣🤣🤣🤣 "dick measuring contests, this one had me rolling. But yes, that's why electric cars are taking the crown, they shine less on top speed but acceleration, I do that every day in my car,from one street light stop to the next.
@@THESLlCK No its true.... Hennessey claims this is a Texas built, ALL AMERICAN hypercar. He claims its a production car too..... None of this is true. And all those perfoemance figures are completely wrong. He claims its an 1800 HP car.... It isnt. A lot of lies from these people. It can only ever run on kit-car number plates. Because it has no emissions certification, no crash testing, not even any airbags.
@@greyguy.960 Bottom line is basically I dont care.... I dont care how fast kit-cars or project cars go. As long as he does not have a PRODUCTION CAR, he cannot claim world records for production cars. And this is NOT a production car by any stretch of the meaning. No crash testing, no emissions certification, no health & safety of any kind. The car doesnt even have airbags. So it will only ever be able to run in the US on kit-car plates. Real production cars dont run on kit-car plates.
What's more important, the quickest accelerating to 120 MPH or the fastest to you readers? For me, it's quickest to 120 MPH. I couldn't care less about going 300 MPH.
yeah at higher speeds it will, for ex going 289 mph to 295 it will make a difference.... Air turbulence and things make huge difference at higher speeds. weight also does count a lot more at those speeds. having breakfast or not could be the difference is going 295 to 297 top speed, some budget airlines make you pee before boarding to save 300grams of liquid from each passengers body.... Apparently they save a lot of fuel on longer haul flights by doing that !!!!!
Great video review mate ! And to answer or explain the roads not being long enough, in America there is plenty of highways or freeways that racers use to open up the iron lungs of the mighty v8
To be fair, SSC did hit 295 with the car pulling hard. All the numbers say it can be done. If they don't try to pull a stunt and try to convince the not so gullible public, they might do it. Interestingly most of this car is really British, not American. 😂

Rory does a thorough review. I thought Mich-PSC2 rubber couldn't handle 300mph. Hence why Bugatti had them bespoke.
probably with Bugatti it has to do with weight around 600-700kg heavier than f5 @300mph the math guys can tell us will be like weight of a tank kkk

@@GAVACHO5150 You are probably right. But to be fair, the Koenigsegg Jesko Abslut has not yet showed what it is capable of. But I expect that it is going to be spectacular, and in the +300 m/h territory.
The Tuatara, for all its qualities, has "only" done 295 m/h so far.....
And then you have Hennesy Venom F5 with 1814 hp......
Crazy stuff!
Great video mate👌
The best car reviewer in Britain by far.
I'd take Pagani Huayra for looks and stuff the engine for this Hennessy for performance...
But Bugatti adds a cherry 🍒 on top with luxury and Comfort...
So much to process to make a decision 🤣🤣
Rimac Nevera for me please.
good job on pointing out off the shelf tires might be a problem for high speed
Fantastic video Rory. Love the work champ. Ben Perth West Coast Aus
g'day
That arrow in front of the wheel is to drive air into the brakes, keeping them as cool as possible. Just look at the placement of the exit channel above the arrow, it points the air directly at the inside of the top of the spokes. Once that are gets disrupted by the spokes, it would be a big cloud of air covering the entire brake assembly... Keeping it cool if they were trying to stop the air to flow around the wheel, they would just have the smoke covered by a flat plate, that would be mounted to a ball bearing, and waited at the bottom. Keeping it stationary, so it to can have arrow, allowing the air to pass by the wheels without causing any additional drag... Much like the McLaren Spoedtsil has.
Rory made my 27th of September with this one.
Happy 27th September, bro. -Rory
Another Rory Special 🎊 🎉 🔥
Just Amazing all around. Good on you AutoTrader , Mr.Reid and the AutoTrader team !
Oen of the top car RUclipsrs in the world. Keep it up Rory
Another well presented video Rory 👍
I was also going to mention the tyres and them not being rated for those speeds, glad that you did.
Another great review from the best. Great way to start my morning. Thank you Rory.
This car looks awesome! I love that it’s turbo MR LS motor! Rather have that than any other vette
Great review of a typical American fast car. Bombastic numbers without refinement.
it's definitely refined
wtf are you talking about
@@william_SMMA if you can’t have a conversation in ur car hyper car at driving speed then mate it isn’t refined. That car will be great on a track, if the tyres hold up, but on a normal driving road ur going to suffer. It’s technically great to achieve some insane numbers but no it isn’t refined.
@@selectedevil same goes with the McLaren F1, Senna, F40, they're all loud inside.
@@DroneStrike1776 am not disagreeing. But they were also very much more than just top speed. So then the F5 needs to be evaluated from that point. The comparison point shouldn’t be the Chiron or any other modern hyper cars. For the record I think the F1 and the F40 are two of, if not, the greatest cars ever built so I don’t if that’s fair to the F5. Am not dissing the F5. I am just struggling to find where it sits.
@@DroneStrike1776 Yup, all unrefined garbage as well I suppose. By that logic, the C8 Corvette is a better and more complete sports car than the Enzo or Carrera GT as well.
Guarantee they have that car on a tune setting that is massively tame. He doesn’t have the full beans.
Interesting car. But the Hennessey name has been ruined for me ever since he scammed Viper owners years ago. If I wanted a very special car, I'd go with Koenigsegg
Beautiful car, love it. The led daytime running lights in the headlamp look cheap though, they should have used a continuous linear led design instead of early 2000s style led dots spaced out.
A yoke might be a great idea if it the turning ratio was progressive so that it felt normal most of the time but you had full lock when necessary without needing to take either hand off the wheel.
Man the F5 Design is surely one of the most beautiful cars ever build.
This car is quicker to 300 than my car is to 100...
John claimed 15 to 400 kph also lol.
That's when you know it's made up
@Amarjit Singh Dhesi after 3 months your still sending me multiple comments? Let it go .
Calm down
@Amarjit Singh Dhesi More insults , your clearly upset here judging by you dismissal and insults .
Very pleased with the use of the word "bespoke"
Great review as usual
It Flunked the Goodward Hill Climb, Both in the Wet and Dry.. at the Goodward Festival of Speed..
Koenigsegg thrashed it...
Am I the only one who was waiting for him to open the doors? Showing how you actually get in it would be nice too.
"aluminum, 8 microns thick"
so basically they used some tin foil
...but microns sounds more impressive, I'll give you that.
Really thin aluminum foil that'd be completely useless in the kitchen
It's half the thickness of standard household aluminum foil, and about a third of the heavy duty stuff. I think it's impressive to be able to form the badge out of that material. Probably very difficult and takes many failed attempts each time.
I need a bib!!! I can't stop drooling!! Gorgeous!!
love the video, Rory is good. dope car also😃
The first 30 seconds of this video Rory gave me chills...
Rory you rock sir!

@@graemejohnson9025 source: trust me bro
Excellent review, well done👏
Now there is a car that's worth every penny..... Bugatti, who ?
0 -62 mph = 2.6 sec
0 - 124 mph = 4.7 sec
0 - 186 mph = 8.4 sec
Top speed = 310.69 mph
HP per tonne = 1,311.9 HP
All on the rear wheels.....meet the new widow maker.
@Alex Alexander Anderson BS?
These are facts.
I struggle to understand your comment as your comment seems to have NO factual bases.
Are you saying the manufacturer's statements are B.S ?
@@mrharry8466 yes they are
Florida be loving this name right now
looks 2 much like a kit car, 2 sqaured in the rear. an expensive street car should have a luxurious interior, as the interior in no way affects performance. it's way 2 racy inside, that thick boxy display is horrendous.
The owners haven't complained to anyone. Over 30 I've heard. And, your NOT one. So, bye.
The Fujita Scale was updated in ‘07 to the Enhanced Fujita Scale, btw.
Great car ..but still want to see that top speed claim.
Thanks for your time my friend
So claim a number that you haven't achieved. That's cool. On that note, my car is 2000hp.
Yeah true the speed is just PR nonsense at this point .
@@tarimatt3383 What's with Koenigsegg?
Another awesome review! Absolutely top quality!
I heard cars going 300mph before in PR talk. I need to see it to believe it, also this can't be good at high speeds being so small and light.
At least we know the Bugatti is safe and scandal and also not a lotus .
Jesko could do it
@@7stiano123 Many cars have but I'm talking about the Hennessy which had a history of wild claims that it's hasn't met.
@Alex Alexander Anderson Dude stops following me around the comments.
Koenigsegg has nothing to do with it.
@Valkyrie What's there to laugh at?? 🤡
@Alex Alexander Anderson Yes certainly Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut definitely has the ability, more hp and more aerodynamic than the Agera RS, two very important factors for top speed!!! And stop replying from multiple accounts, Mr. Valkyrie 007!!!!
Sir u mean no power steering on this thing?, does it add up??
@@captain_context9991 u think so
Top speed: one thing 95% of people will never experience on the real road.
But accleration will
Over 95% of the people that buy one of these will never get it anywhere near V-max. At the end of the day, Hennessey specializes in selling vehicles to win dick measuring contests.
@@Briggsian 🤣🤣🤣🤣 "dick measuring contests, this one had me rolling. But yes, that's why electric cars are taking the crown, they shine less on top speed but acceleration, I do that every day in my car,from one street light stop to the next.
any video of it doing over 300mph ? like there is a video of a bugatti doing over 300mph ? (3 years ago)
Ahh Hennessey, make the largest claims and they never meet them. good video and cool car.
Cringe alert.
@@THESLlCK
No its true.... Hennessey claims this is a Texas built, ALL AMERICAN hypercar. He claims its a production car too..... None of this is true. And all those perfoemance figures are completely wrong.
He claims its an 1800 HP car.... It isnt. A lot of lies from these people. It can only ever run on kit-car number plates. Because it has no emissions certification, no crash testing, not even any airbags.
True I like the claim John said about 15 seconds to 400 kph which is in dreamland and the 310 plus.
@@THESLlCK It's cringe to believe the claims that have changed multiple times .
@@greyguy.960
Bottom line is basically I dont care.... I dont care how fast kit-cars or project cars go. As long as he does not have a PRODUCTION CAR, he cannot claim world records for production cars.
And this is NOT a production car by any stretch of the meaning.
No crash testing, no emissions certification, no health & safety of any kind. The car doesnt even have airbags. So it will only ever be able to run in the US on kit-car plates. Real production cars dont run on kit-car plates.
I remember when he was on top gear, their loss he is in his element now good on you Rory👍👍
Rimac Nevera would be great to measure where Venom stands
Rory the best car reviewer what a dangerous car beautiful and brutal
The F5 is an exceptional car but the jesko absolute seems more refined.
chiron supersport is even more refined.
Chiron SS is king.
What's more important, the quickest accelerating to 120 MPH or the fastest to you readers? For me, it's quickest to 120 MPH. I couldn't care less about going 300 MPH.
It is quick to 120MPH too.
Comparing a kit car to a Bugatti very impressive 👍
Not a kit car goofy
At this stage it can't even be registered as a kit car it's got that much wrong with it. .
@Valkyrie 007 brainless
Why this channel hasn't had 1mil subscribers yet?
Can a badge really affect air flow 🤔 to the point where the desired speed is not reached, i.e will removing a badge contribute to increased speed
yeah at higher speeds it will, for ex going 289 mph to 295 it will make a difference.... Air turbulence and things make huge difference at higher speeds. weight also does count a lot more at those speeds. having breakfast or not could be the difference is going 295 to 297 top speed, some budget airlines make you pee before boarding to save 300grams of liquid from each passengers body.... Apparently they save a lot of fuel on longer haul flights by doing that !!!!!
Great video review mate ! And to answer or explain the roads not being long enough, in America there is plenty of highways or freeways that racers use to open up the iron lungs of the mighty v8
Probably just another fake record like the previous model, or like the fake record from the SSC
To be fair, SSC did hit 295 with the car pulling hard. All the numbers say it can be done. If they don't try to pull a stunt and try to convince the not so gullible public, they might do it.
Interestingly most of this car is really British, not American. 😂
Fake record from the Venom GT? Nah, they really hit 274 mph with that car.
They actually hit 273 mph in 2012
@@srinitaaigaura Not true. It's built in the US with assistance with some British company, but most of it is built in the USA.
This is a serious car mate..I believe they've already reached 270 or 280 mph ..i could be wrong
