Ultimate Aero TT Breaks Record of The World

The 2008 Ultimate Aero TT is the latest version by Shelby Super Autos . When the Final Aero TT first made its debut many industry insiders felt that this vehicle would break the world speed record for production cars of 253.2 miles per hour, set by the Bugatti Veyron 16.4. It wasn’t long before they were proved right. The Final Aero TT reached an unprecedented speed of 256.15 mph, making this lightweight, aerodynamic automobile officially the “World’s Fastest Production Car.”

Achieving incredible power via its twin turbo V-8 engine, it produces 1,183 h.p. and 1,094 ft.-lbs. of torque. The speedometer on the automobile goes up to 260, and in sixth gear at 7,200 revs per minute ; the TT’s performance stats say it surpasses 286 mph.
The Ultimate Aero TT does zero to 60 miles per hour in 2.78 seconds and a quarter mile in less than ten seconds. It’s got a 422-pound V-8 engine with an aluminum block and heads. The four-wheel rocket redlines at 7,200 r.p.m, and the vehicle’s horsepower is an awesome 1,183 at 6,950 rpm. It is a rear-wheel drive with a mid-engine position. The lightweight body is created of carbon fiber, composites, and a steel space frame. It sets on Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 tires, nineteen by 9.5 inches in the front and 20 by thirteen inches in the rear. The ride is controlled by unequal length higher and lower A-arms coil-over springs in the front and rear.

This politically incorrect beast vehicle- with a four-inch ground clearance- has a refined side too. The inside is both clean and stylish. Even the roll bar boosts the lines of the cabin by matching the vehicle’s seats. There also is a high-end sound system and a DVD navigational system. It comes in eleven heavenly colours, including yellow, purple and plum.
The Shelby name has been related to classic, super-fast autos for decades. However, Carroll Shelby, the person who made the world think of cars instead of reptiles when referring to cobras or rattlesnakes, isn’t related whatsoever to Jarod Shelby, the owner of SSC and the designer of the Final Aero TT. Perhaps there is just something about that name?.
