Hennessey Performance Venom GT

Hennessey Performance officially revealed the first images and full details about the Venom GT, a supercar based off the Lotus Elise and Exige models. Powered by a 6.2-liter LS9 V8 engine from a Corvette ZR1, the tuners were able to boost the output to 725 hp. Hennessey Performance also plans to offer a twin-turbo version of the V8, with numbers well beyond 1,000 horsepower. The Venom GT car you see here weighs only 1,071 kg thanks to the carbon fiber body, and wheel package put together with the lightest parts. With this light of a car, Hennessey claims the 1,200 hp model can accelerate from 0-100 km/h in just 2.4 seconds with a top speed of 440 km/h. It should destory the factory Bugatti Veyron, since its top speed is only 408 km/h, and the Venom GT is significantly lighter.

GeigerCars Hummer H2

Now this is a Hummer! We’ve seen some interesting things done to the Hummer H2, however GeigerCars latest build definitely tops them all with this Mattracks rubber tracking system. Called the Hummer H2 Bomber, the tuning company swapped the regular 20×8.5 wheels with a Mattracks 88M1-A1 rubber track kit that can handle almost any type of terrain. The rubber tracks are 40 cm wide and 150 cm long and powered by the 398 hp V8 engine. Torque numbers show 574 Nm, so the new wheels package on the GeigerCars Hummer H2 should be similar to a war tank. I’m just wondering if they took this idea from the Subaru Impreza WRX STi Trax.

CFC Hummer H2

CFC, which stands for Car Film Components, is a German based tuner who decided to pimp out this Hummer H2 with several chrome accessories. They claim this build to be pretty sexy, but honestly I could only see popular rappers such as Lil Wayne or Drake driving a car like this. Their tuning firm decided to wrap the Hummer H2 SUV in chrome vinyl, and black out the windows with tint before adding the CFC stickers on the side. The most attracting feature on the vehicle are definitely the huge 28-inch light alloy chrome wheels from TunerShop, which come wrapped in 325/35 R28 tires from Kumho. Moving to the interior however, CFC went over the top on this Hummer H2.

Tanner Foust Scion TC

Do you remember the Ken Block videos drifting his Subaru STi for DC Shoes, and recently acquiring a new Ford Fiesta for the snow drift scene? Well now there is a new competitor on the block, Tanner Foust, in his race built Scion TC. Why they chose a Scion TC for the drift track? Beats me, but it does look good from the exterior, and is definitely spewing out clouds of smoke from the rear wheels. At least it’s not a boxy Scion xB or tiny Scion xA. Right now we just have a teaser video, however a ton of pictures from AutoBlog. They recently announced a new drift series coming in March, which will feature prospect Tanner Foust and his Scion TC taking on the dangerous road, Mulholland Drive in California.
