Supercharged 2010 Camaros - Hennessey's Hot Rods

Hennessey Performance serves up three hot-rodded '10 Camaros, one of them with an LS9 engineDude, where's the shift light? In the 10 minutes it takes for your right hand and left foot to catch up to the HPE650 Camaro's voraciously revving LS3, you'll find yourself asking that same question with each and every stab of the throttle, in each and every gear. And that, friends, is a very good problem to have. With a Magnuson supercharger, ported heads, and a wee bit of cam, supertuner John Hennessey's latest creation dispatches nearly 600 hp to the rear wheels and makes half of the Tremec's six cogs feel entirely unnecessary. Once you've recalibrated your reflexes to successfully pull the handle before the fuel cutoff, the experience is intoxicating, rewarding, and a new rite of passage for all aspiring social miscreants. Get it just right and the HPE650 will rip off high 10s at the dragstrip, making it the quickest and fastest fifth-gen Camaro in existence as of press time. But wait, there's more. On this glorious July afternoon, Hennessey is also throwing us the keys to the HPE550, a slightly less potent variant of the same car, and giving HOT ROD an exclusive first drive of the world's only LS9-powered '10 Camaro. So let's get it on, shall we?
