Hennessey Venom GT

On February 9, 2013 the Hennessey Venom GT tried to pick up the  gauntlet that was thrown down by the mighty Bugatti Veyron with a 265.7MPH (427.6 km/h) run, down a 2 miles runway at Naval Air Station Lemoore, California, which seems to be just sort of the 267.856 mph (431.072 km/h) set on July 4th 2010 by the Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Super Sport at Volkswagen’s Ehra-Lessien high-speed test track.  Hennessey states that the Veyron Super Sport did a run of 267.8 mph, Bugatti speed-limits its production vehicles to 258 mph, Thus, at 265.7 mph the Venom GT is the fastest production car available to the public.” Since the Venom GT is a hugely modified car we think he might be getting a bit picky about this one. What do you think ?
