With a hennessey engine it'd be ball tearingly scary quick and plus the performance handling of a lotus, speaks for itself of the level of awesome that car would be (ok the weight ratio's might be fluffed up abit having an american v8 donk in it.. but i'm sure it'd still be somewhat good). And even if it didn't retain its true lotus handling. it'd sure as hell go fast in a straight line, true to its american muscle bloodline!
