WATCH: A really, really fast car might do 200mph; this Hennessey goes from 200mph to 220mph in three seconds

It's easy to become inured to the impact of huge performance when every startup worth its crypto claims to have a 2,000hp hypercar ready to go once investment lands. You see 271.6mph written down and think 'that's cool, but a Koenigsegg went faster', or something along those lines. Then you watch the way, getting from 130mph to 200mph like a quick car would do 130kph to 200kph, and remember that very powerful and very fast is still very cool. Especially with a V8.
Even on a runway, the Venom F5 is stunningly rapid. A really, really fast car might do 200mph; this Hennessey goes from 200mph to 220mph in three seconds. It's like the magazine's favourite 50-70mph top gear acceleration test, but at four times the speed. Certainly 300mph looks viable given how it's still trucking at 270mph, steady as a rock and only disturbed by some punchy gearshifts.
