Good news, people of the Internet. John Hennessey has confirmed to TopGear.com that his upcoming Venom F5 hypercar will have a "completely bespoke, 8.0-litre twin-turbo V8" with no less than 1,600bhp. He also admitted he"s considering adding another couple of turbos because you can never have too many turbos and that the decision will be made before this year"s Pebble Beach Concours in August. We can"t wait. John also told us he"s going to have another crack at the outright top-speed record with the F5. "You"ve got Koenigsegg in first position now. Bugatti is not going to take it sitting down, so they"re gonna jump back in the game," he says, "but I think there"s a squabble somewhere in the 280s, and about the time dust settles from those guys slapping each other about then we"ll turn up".
