Hennessey Venom GT

The Hennessey Venom GT reaches 60 mph in 2.54 s and covers a standing quarter mile in 9.71 s, tripping the lights at 164.6 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 1.70 s and the eighth mile in 6.59 s, reaching 100 mph in 5.33 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the Venom GT

The 2010 Hennessey Venom GT is a rear-drive turbocharged supercar of 1,220 kg with 1,200 bhp, which works out at 984 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 984 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 1.70 s. Against the 2,929 cars in the set it is the 75th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest five per cent. Its 164.6 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 10 of 11 published acceleration figures for this car.

What cars are comparable to the Hennessey Venom GT?
Closest here on pace: Koenigsegg One:1 (2.65 s), 9ff GT9 Vmax (2.64 s), Koenigsegg Regera (2.56 s). Each one can be raced against the Hennessey Venom GT in the panel at the top of this page.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Hennessey Venom GT is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 10 of its 11 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
