    Exclamation Hennessey ZL1 goes 203 MPH on Texas Highway

    [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oaJ3w_fAdoI"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oaJ3w_fAdoI[/ame]

    I hope this isn't a repost. I don't recall us nitpicking this video, the ZL1 or Hennessey lately.

    I listen to the first 30 seconds at least twice a day.

    Sounds nice. But didn't it hit 203 on that downhill stretch at the end?

    Top Gear has desensitized me to things like this. Sure I'm impressed but I'm not shocked.

    I am very impressed! Impressed that Hennessey can drive a car at all with his head so far up his ass.

    This is impressive for driving in a straight line... The owner seems a little douchey

    I agree. Some of the ideas they have come up with are outstanding. First time I heard of a twin fuel system was on one of their cars. Run plain old 91 pump for driving and then it switches to 116 under boost.
