Hennessey Front Aero accents

[jcochran]

I like the red intakes, Wayne. Nice touch.

Just one question: What's up with your hood? It looks latched from the front, but the hood sides around the headlight edges look about an inch too high for the hood to be closed fully...

The hood is a composite weighs 27 lbs.
Bought from SVSI made by Composite Motorsports.
I've had it to 3 places all say "can't improve"!
One said send it back to manufacturer. I have
hood pins on rear for safety when I run Silverstate etc.
Like to know if anyone else has one that fits?It
seems to get worse with time!
Usually they sell to racers who aren't as picky about cosmetics I guess?

Sir Hiss has a carbon fiber hood that fits perfectly. Don't know if it's right for you or not.

Well had to repaint the Hennessey Front facia
after a year of curb pounding..anyhow decided
to try something different... again.I had the air
inlets painted red hoping to attract more air or stares!
Not used to it yet, may never get used to it, who knows?
Don't sue me John it's not that bad ,is it?

giving me $50 tickets on regular basis!
Regarding tech speed of 165...of course I'm
going to exceed...question is will they catch me????????
165....180...if I crash good luck anyhow!
You know JH motto "too much horsepower is never enough"?
Well in this case" TOO MANY REGULATIONS ARE ALWAYS TOO MUCH!!!!!!!!!

Hey Wayne,

I like the new paint job!!

Had the same thoughts regarding the hood spacing!!

Did you attend the SW Rev. at TMS this past weekend? I don't remember seeing your car there? Just curious.

No I'm a soutern California member just know Marv S. from so cal events he gets around!

 

[bad viper]

thought I checked that out a few years ago (when I bought this one). This one hinges like a normal hood (it just has an abnormal fit!)

Wayne, You didn't bolt that front plate on, did you?

Don't break out of your tech speed at Silverstate.
