Supercar gets Jay Leno's attention
Ultimate Aero
Comedian Jay Leno went for a spin in the Ultimate Aero car designed by West Richland, Wash., entrepreneur Jerod Shelby, founder of Shelby SuperCars, LLC, a U.S. automobile manufacturer. Leno invited Shelby to bring the world's fastest production car to Burbank, Calif., in June for a hands-on inspection and test drive at Leno's Big Dog Garage. The vehicle is a 2008 model of Shelby's 1,200-horsepower car that set a 255-mph world speed record last year and is in the Guinness Book of World Records.
