Agreed, I have heard the same comments from a lot of people over the years. It is sad the way that it ended. But we are going to get the same guys with a new series and they will have something to prove. The new TG presenters will also be highly motivated to prove their worth. So in the long run I think that this will…

True, the more aggressive bumpers and winch will add weight. But if you've ever hit a deer or have been stuck off-roading, then you'd know the value that these options have. They are like insurance: When you need them, you are really glad that you have them. No need for them for most people who drive in the city.

The next gen Raptor will be awesome and we are just as excited about it. We do not pretend to be able to do what Ford / SVT can do in terms of off-road awesomeness. We simply plan to make the 2015 Ford truck faster, more fun and a bit more capable off-road. We will all have to wait for the new Raptor if we want to…

Yeah, but the logo delete package costs extra...

The light bar will get used plenty. You will see in February, 2015 on a certain tv show that is somewhat about cars...

UPDATE: John just let me know he has to go (after staying for an extra hour), but he said he'd try and come back later to answer some more questions.

OK, I think I covered all the questions that I could see / find. Here is one last thing I would like everyone to know. Going to the Kennedy Space Center (KSC) was very special to me personally. I was a space geek when I was a kid in the late 60's and early 70's - right at the time when we went to the moon. Neal…

Right after we achieved the goal it was more of a sense of relief than sense of accomplishment. Now almost 2 weeks later I can tell you that it gives me a great sense of pride to know and work with some of the best and most talented guys in the world. Our team worked very hard and with the assistance of guys like…

No. But we do have www.TunerSchool.com which we started several years ago to train enthusiasts in the basics of modifying cars.

We all take tires for granted. I have relied on Michelins for all of our vehicles for the past 10 years including the Venom GT. Michelin has helped us a lot in the past. But I did not want to expose them to any perceived liability with regards to the high speed run. Our engineers did their homework and we knew…

Hi guys, I am back for a little while. For Sweden to answer your question, the Shuttle Landing Facility (SLF) at Kennedy Space Center is the longest (3.2 miles), widest (300 ft I think) and smoothest (not perfect but no place is ) piece of flat, paved, private propery that we know of in the USA. Its at sea level. …

OK, I am back. Got about an hour to try to answer the rest of the questions. Will try to get to the point quickly. Thanks guys, John

Where was I? Oh yeah, Guinness World Records (GWR) finally sends me "their" rules for qualifying for "world's fastest production car". After reading through them I knew that I had been hosed. Here are just a few:

So a month after we set the 0-300 km/h Guinness world record we took the Venom to the 2.9 mile long runway at Naval Air Station Lemoore in CA. I did not think that we had enough room to beat the Veyron 267.8 mph (2 way avg) Guinness record on this runway. The Bugatti guys had 5.6 miles to run their number and I…

Lots of people asking about the fine folks at Guinness. Well here are some details. We have worked with them in the past. Very professional and meticulous. They came to Houston last year to witness and certify our 0-300 km/h Guinness world record for the Venom GT. We ran both directions, they inspected the car…

We had wanted to run in 2 directions. Our first test day at Kennedy was very windy. 20-25 mph wind and it was a direct cross wind. Dangerous for most of the day but we made a run later in the day to see how the car would do and still hit 253 mph. We knew that if the wind was at our backs then we would be faster…

Great question and several things I'd like to point out in addition to answering your question. So let me break this up into bite sized answers so you guys don't think my computer died...

I am a huge Veyron fan. And the entire car guy world should be thankful to the guys at Bugatti / VW for building this "Concorde" of the road. They lose money on every one that they build and they still built it. Why? I can't answer for them, but my guess would be so that they could demonstrate their capability of…

Yes, you can come and visit any of our locations for a tour on Monday through Friday from 8-5 pm. Our main location is on I-10 just west of Houston. We also have a facility in Lake Forrest, CA. We may also be opening an east coast facility at some point in the near future. More on that later.

Well it depends on the power setting, driver and course. Matt Farah's Venom GT test drive of Steven Tyler's car was on 800 hp. Check out his expressions on his Tuned video on Drive. Same thing for Bill Caswell when he rode with former GM Performance boss and racer, John Heinricy at Goodwood FoS a few years ago. …
