American Made

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.

Check out the video link from Leno's garage for Jay's review and test drive.

Thanks for the link and info Dennis.
