This will probably go on the front page. This isn't an HPE 750 though, it's an HPE 600 with NOS boost. The HPE 750 will use a supercharger. They are building the car in stages and testing at different intervals, so they aren't quite there yet. This uses an NA engine with cats, new cam, headers, a bigger intake, and some other miscellaneous mods for 605 HP. I think realistically most performance shops should be capable of doing something similar.
This company likes to set records, sure, but I would still never hand them the keys to my car. Shady business practices. |

So that car has the GM lowering kit on it. I like how it sits.

I would think hennessey would have enough of a budget to know how to shoot video correctly. That banding on the racelogic was annoying as fu.. to watch. They could have dropped $300 on a used cannon eos and eliminated most of that. Other than that nice video.

No way I'd ever let them mod one of mine... Ever.
It's no different than seeing for yourself if fire will burn you.. Plenty of existing evidence. |

First off NOS is a brand, not a part/mod. Since the article doesn't mention what "brand" of "nitrous (or N2O if you want an abbreviation)", it could have been NX, NOS, Zex, or any number of brands.
*rant off* 200mph is crazy. Really want to see some members take their SS to the Texas Mile and see what they can do.
