Hennessey Venom F5 crash worthiness/testing and analysis updates?

https://www.autoweek.com/news/a35012044/audi-updates-its-popular-q5/

"We also had a few questions about the new car’s safety. Visscher told us Hennessey has conducted all the required FEA simulations for crashworthiness and that the F5 will meet the “required safety standards” in every market where it’s sold. He also claimed the F5’s carbon-fiber monocoque is “one of the most rigid produced by any automotive manufacturer.”

“The intrinsic strength of carbon fiber enhances occupant safety in the event of an accident,” he told us. “The carbon-fiber body joins an aluminium subframe where engine and suspension components connect. The subframe components are engineered to deform in the event of an accident to absorb the energy of an impact and protect the passenger cell.”

FEA analysis and simulations=

https://www.autodesk.co.uk/solutions/finite-element-analysis#:~:text=Finite element analysis (FEA) is,the way it was designed.

"Finite element analysis software
Finite element analysis (FEA) is a computerised method for predicting how a product reacts to real-world forces, vibration, heat, fluid flow and other physical effects. Finite element analysis shows whether a product will break, wear out or work the way it was designed. It is called analysis, but in the product development process, it is used to predict what's going to happen when the product is used.

FEA works by breaking down a real object into a large number (thousands to hundreds of thousands) of finite elements, such as little cubes. Mathematical equations help predict the behaviour of each element. A computer then adds up all the individual behaviours to predict the behaviour of the actual object.

Finite element analysis helps predict the behaviour of products affected by many physical effects, including:

Mechanical stress
Mechanical vibration
Fatigue
Motion
Heat transfer."

"The Venom F5 is Hennessey’s first all-in sports car, entirely designed and built by his eponymous company. And the space shuttle’s runway isn’t enough for it. “A runway is just not long enough for this car,” Hennessey tells The Irish Times when we sit down for a chat at Goodwood. “Even when we’ve tested on that Nasa runway, it’s just not long enough. We’re just never going to find the v-max of the car in that environment. So we’re currently working on securing a stretch of public highway in Texas, which we could close down for a short time, enough time to make the run. We think we need five, maybe six miles (9.6km) to hit v-max and bring the car safely down to a stop.”

I haven't listened to it. Perhaps tomorrow. And Love him or hate him it has absolutely NOTHING to do with the Hennessey Venom F5.

I'm keen at some point to introduce materials but there's a HELL of alot of engineering gone into that car which is actually English. The Carbon fiber monocoque for starters.

made saying the F5 was developed and is manufactured in the UK?

Production of the Hennessey Venom is Sealy in Texas in the United States of America. However the "OEM" or original equipment manufacture is done by engineers elsewhere. For instance I've already mentioned a significant contribution in terms of the carbon fibre monocoque. The single clutch transmissions is from Italy. Etc.

Nobody designs and researches and develops and puts into production everything themselves. It's factually incorrect and inaccurate. And I know some hypercar manufacturers do. It's a disservice to others engineering. Tragically so.
 
So from the interview the most pertinent points regarding the Venom F5~

2021 unit production is X1 per month 2022 unit production will be X2 per month.
Re iterated that Hennessey with attempt 300MPH+ plus coupe and 265MPH+ roadster top speed production records.
Other variants are coming, previously confirmed as "Track Packages."
The record attempts are probably 2023.
Etc.

256MPH to or around the 1 mile marker is exceptionally rapid. This car has ALOT more to go up yet in terms of raw data. We've seen nothing yet acceleration related.🙂
