Up for auction is my 2010 Hennnessey HPE650. This car comes with two dyno sheets and set the record at Hennessey for the amount of horsepower it produced compared to other 650 Hennessey's. Hennessey actually ran the car twice across the dyno because they did not believe the numbers they were getting. The car makes 642 ft pounds of torque and 655 horsepower at the rear wheels. That equates to 730 horsepower at the crankshaft. In some instances this as much horsepower produced by the LS9! 0-60 MPH is reached in 3.4 seconds or 3.2 seconds depending on who is clutching the car. At idle the car has a subtle lobe from the performance cam and aches to rip up the road. However, one of the best attributes of this car is its ability to be driven sanely without a fuss. But nail the accelerator and the exhaust goes from quite to the sound of the race car that it is and sends kids running for cover. The suspension has been set up perfectly for the car and body weight is shifted to the rear upon acceleration and although it breaks traction it tracks straight and hooks up quickly allowing the driver to give it all without worry of jetting sideways or spinning in place. The car will hold a corner at greater than 1.2 g's without breaking traction. The rear tires were recently replace with brand new Run Flat Pirelli's at $500 apiece; maybe 50 miles on them. The front tires are like new with very little wear. The wheels speak for themselves and look awesome on this car. The Passport Qi 45 Radar detector is hidden in the grill and one of the best on the market for detecting all forms of police radar. I recommend checking it out online. Very expensive but also worth every bit with a car like this. This very car was in two Hot Rod calendars and featured in a 2010 issue of Hot Rod magazine. I have a calendar still in plastic that will go with the car along with the dyno sheets from Hennessey. Thanks for looking and good luck with winning this car. You will never regret purchasing this baby. Still smells like new.

Experimental mid-engine XP-819 Corvette going up for auction
Sun, 17 Feb 2013It seems to be commonplace that when a new Corvette is in development, rumors swirl about a possible mid-engine layout. As is the case of Chevy's most recent C7 Corvette, these rumors never pan out.
In any case, the idea for a 'Vette with an engine mounted behind the driver can probably all be traced back to a single car, the 1964 XP-819 prototype. Built as an "engineering exercise" back in 1964, the prototype was designed with a rear-mounted engine. History tells us that the idea of a rear-engine Corvette fizzled, and the XP-819 was eventually cut up into pieces and stored at a shop in Daytona Beach, FL.
After sitting for untold years, a restoration project started on the car, and while it isn't yet fully completed, the current owner of the car, Mid America Motorworks, will have the car on display at the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance as a "driveable chassis" with hopes of having a fully completed car ready to bring to next year's show.

Chevy SS prototype spotted wearing Pontiac G8 clothes
Tue, 28 Aug 2012
Do not adjust your computer screen, you are not seeing the rebirth of the Pontiac brand. General Motors has chosen to use a G8 to disguise a test mule for the latest prototype of the forthcoming Chevrolet SS. The G8 was closely related to the Holden Commodore and Vauxhall VXR, the platform upon which the new Chevrolet performance model will be based. It should come as little surprise, then, that GM has opted to use the cladding from the former G8.
Thought the front clip of this mule is pure Pontiac, note the vents immediately behind the front wheel. That is a distinctive design hallmark of the Vauxhall VXR. Also note that this vehicle is right-hand drive, as the Holden and its Chevy counterpart will be very closely related. That likely includes potential drivetrains. The spy photos of this mule also reveal very wide rear tires, and rear wheels that do not match the fronts.
