That’s Leno’s car on the rotisserie," said Brammo CEO Craig Bramscher, pointing to a sleek tubular chassis mounted on a rotating bench, so it can be affixed with all the desired wires, levers and accessories.

The Ariel Atom’s design is licensed from the British Ariel Motor Car Co. but future models are designed in-house by Brian Wismann, a 25-year-old veteran of Daytona race car body designing, hired from North Carolina, and engineer Michael Sorensen, a local resident who fashions the mechanics of the vehicles.
