2010 HPE700 Camaro with Cam-Aero Body and 725 HP Now in Production!

Dear Fellow Gear Head,
I am really excited to be able to show you some of the first pictures of our 2010 HPE700 Camaro replete with our Cam-Aero (tm) body. This limited production Camaro powered by the Corvette ZR1 supercharged LS9 motor may be one of the most significant cars that Hennessey has built in the last 18 years. We are only building 24 examples for the 2010 model year and more than half have already been sold. So if owning one of the most powerful and most significant muscle cars ever built is a must for your collection, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Check out our videos on YouTube for some incredible machines making big horsepower.
Also, all orders over $100 will receive a POWERED BY HENNESSEY license plate frame. If you are a Hennessey customer and would like one of our special license plate frames, please give us a call or email and we will gladly send you one at no cost.
Enjoy the fall season driving your favorite fun / fast car. Please let us know if we can help you in any way.
Please stay in touch and never lift!

Two Heavy-Hitting Dyno Videos: The LS9 HPE700 Camaro & Twin Turbo Ford GT 1000
This month we have two BIG videos to share with you.
First up is the highly-anticipated LS9-powered HPE700 Camaro putting down some of the biggest numbers yet from this amazing powerplant. After settling the disagreement between the Camaro and the LS9's computer systems, the HPE700 is now fully functional, running strong and making even more power than we had originally anticipated.
Click Here to Watch the HPE700 Make 645 rwhp!
Meanwhile, on the blue oval side of the American supercar spectrum, we have a video featuring two blistering pulls from a recently-completed twin turbo/supercharged Ford GT 1000.
On regular 93-octane pump gas, it put down 857 horsepower to the wheels. And on C16 race fuel it screamed to 972 rwhp!

HPE to Send 700+ HP Cadillac CTS-V Down the Texas Mile
 This October 16-18th, the awesome show of horsepower that is the Texas Mile will be taking place once again at a small airfield in South Texas, and HPE will be there to shoot for new records. For those unfamiliar with the event, the Texas Mile is an entire weekend of standing mile time trials and competition featuring some of the fastest cars from across the nation.
The last time HPE ran the mile, we brought along our 2009 ZR700 Corvette ZR1 and GTR700 Nissan GT-R. This year, we're planning to tackle all 5,280 feet with a brand-new 2010 Cadillac CTS-V that has been outfitted with our V700 upgrade.
The V700 takes the factory-supercharged LSA (similar to the ZR1's LS9), increases boost levels and adds a pair of high-flow cylinder heads, an HPE camshaft and a set of stainless steel long tube headers. This package pushes the 556 hp CTS-V beyond the 700 hp mark and takes the 4-door sedan to a completely new level of ZR1-like acceleration and sound.
