It's nice to see that innovation and engineering marvels can still be found in the USA. Not only do they make this world record holding 1287 bhp, 1,115 ft-lbs of torque all aluminum block (and Ford didn't think it could be done on a Cobra!) twin turbo V-8 beast, they are working on an all electric supercar that uses two 500 hp electric motors. Even though they aren't related, having Shelby as a last name doesn't hurt either.
