    The record for the fastest lap by a production car at Circuit of the Americas (COTA) in Austin, TX has been shattered by the impressive Hennessey Venom F5 Revolution. Clocking in at an astonishing 2 minutes and 10.90 seconds, this feat outpaces the previous time set by the McLaren P1 by a remarkable 7 seconds!

    Branded as an adaptable hypercar by Hennessey Performance, the Venom F5 aims to achieve speeds of over 300 mph while excelling on both track and road conditions. During the historic lap driven by David Donohue, the vehicle showcased exceptional handling capabilities, hitting forces of up to 1.59 G during cornering and decelerating at -1.61 G.

    The special Revolution edition of the Venom F5 comes equipped with a comprehensive high downforce package, featuring a fixed rear spoiler, an extended front splitter with dual canards, and a reimagined engine cover with a built-in roof scoop to accommodate the 6.6-liter V8 engine.

    Under the hood, the twin-turbo V8 powerplant churns out an astonishing 1817 horsepower at 8,000 rpm and a torque of 1,193 lb-ft at 5,000 rpm. The mighty power is sent to the rear wheels through a single-clutch semi-automatic transmission. Boasting substantial 390 mm carbon ceramic brakes and Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires as standard, the Venom F5 Revolution is a force to be reckoned with.
