    Looks like Jay Leno showed up with his McLaren F1 at Super Car Sunday again. Of course it was after everyone left. My friend Shawn, who donated his artwork for the motor4toys auction last week, stayed back luckily and got some great shots! Here are a few.

    With this Mclaren F1, Jay might not want a Ferrari.

    Expired license.

    More than 60 days expired and obviously not in the state where he resides. In Minnesota it could end up in an impound lot.

    The guy in the passenger seat with the goofy grin was me. After a while of looking the car over Mr.Leno turned to me and said 'lets go for a ride'. Who was I to turn it down? It was mega. We went for a full half hour drive with some nice wide open bits right up to 65 (lol).

    While driving we chatted on a number of subjects and I told him that I frequent FerrariChat where the members think of him as a real car guy and that his passion and enthusiasm for cars is really appreciated. He thought that was nice :)

    That is awesome, man that must felt incredible in that car. I have run into him on Saturdays at Burbank Auto Books and he is a great guy. Great photos by the way.

    Leno is the real deal. He walked up to me when I was vintage racing my Shelby GT350 at Vegas and began discussing trans gear ratios. He also owns a GT350 and we compared notes for a bit.

    BTW, did they get it right with that McLaren or what?

    Congrats on getting to ride with him. He seems to give someone a ride everytime he shows up there.

    This man is incredible. He has such a passion for cars. Can you see any other celeb bringing his car out for others to enjoy on a monthly basis??

    The Garage People take such good care of his cars and they too are all very nice people.
