Default Viper's greatest Tuner touching an R8

so I don't have any picture and saw it on Fast Lane Daily (April,16,2008), but apparently Hennessey is gonna tweak the R8. I am excited since I love the Hennessey Vipers, so I can't wait to see the ridiculous power he gets out of a R8


just thought I'd let you know

never knew that one VNV, but regardless I'm itching to see an 800+ or even a 1000+ HP R8, raping everything in it's path.

Yeah, I read that story in Car and Driver many years ago, but I thought that he had improved his rep. There is always that guy in Florida (I think) thats turboing Lambos and Ford GTs. He got like 1000hp on the GT.

I'd like to see Heffner Performance build one - that's the guy making 700-800hp Gallardos and twin-turbo Ford GTs. As for the story with Hennessey, go here for a start:
