Wallpaper Description:

The Hennessey Venom GT is a sports car manufactured by Hennessey Performance Engineering. It was revealed on March 29, 2010.
On January 21, 2013, the Venom GT set a new Guinness World Record for an average 0-300 km/h acceleration time of 13.63 seconds, after hitting 186 miles per hour speed, making it the quickest production car in the world In addition, the car set an unofficial record for 0-200 mph acceleration at 14.51 seconds.
CHASSIS
The Venom GT is based on a highly modified Lotus Exige chassis. The manufacturer Hennessey Performance Engineering claims the modified chassis utilizes components from Lotus Exige, including but not limited to the roof, doors, side glass, windscreen, dashboard, cockpit, floorpan, HVAC system, wiper and head lamps.
The Venom GT will have a production curb weight of about 2,700 lb (1,200 kg) aided by its lightweight carbon fiber bodywork and carbon fiber wheels. The brakes use Brembo 6-piston calipers in the front and 4-piston calipers in the rear.[4] The rotors are 15 in (380 mm) carbon ceramic units provided by Surface Transforms
DRIVETRAIN
The Venom GT is powered by twin turbocharged 7.0 L (430 cu in) V8 engine featuring Ball Bearing Turbocharging system. The engine produces 1,244 bhp (928 kW; 1,261 PS) of power and 1,155 N�m (852 lb�ft) of torque. Engine power output is adjustable by three settings: 800 bhp (597 kW; 811 PS), 1,000 bhp (746 kW; 1,014 PS) and 1,200 bhp (895 kW; 1,217 PS).
The mid-engine V8 is mated to the rear wheels with a Ricardo 6-speed manual transmission.[1] Hennessey claims that the car can achieve a top speed of 272 mph (437 km/h), although this has never been tested.
A programmable traction control system will manage power output. Computational fluid dynamic (CFD) tested bodywork and down force also help keep the Venom GT stable. Under varying conditions on both the road and racetrack, an active aero system with adjustable rear wing will deploy. An adjustable suspension system will allow ride height adjustments according to speed and driving conditions. Michelin PS2 tires will also help put power to the ground.
