This is the only thing I could get on it, but Car and Driver featured it in the Supercar Challenge issue in 2002.

Besides, nobody ever stated in this thread that it HAD to be a daily driver.

The only issue ive ever heard with those is keeping the power on the ground. My friend'* dad owns a previous year'* Hennessy (that ive never been allowed to touch :? proly because its the only reason im his friend) and He says its so torquey he cant keep the rear tires connected and starts from second or third from all but the steepest stops. Any amount of gas from first just lights 'em up.
