Jay Leno may not be hosting Top Gear USA, but he still gets to test-drive all the latest and greatest cars for his Jay's Garage videos. His most recent spin around LA-LA-land was in none other than the fastest car in the world, the SSC Ultimate Aero. We know Jay is a fan of ridiculously overpowered cars, but we were a bit surprised to find he actually complements the 1183-HP beast's build quality. Though maybe he was just being polite, since Mr. Shelby (no relation to Carroll) was, you know, standing right there. Video after the jump.
