Loads of videos on the Ultima website, including 9.9s 143mph quarter mile and in-car views from Donnington track day - completely eating anything else in
sight.
Dear Santa ...
There's a lot of talk these days about green transport. Well, I am ahead of the game, I already have green transport ... British racing green.

right very kit carish looking, but performance you cannot take that away from them!.

It is a large 'small block' Chevy. Probably around the 6.5 litre mark. I expect its an all ally one, though you ask them which one ! Ultima don't
supply engines, they let you buy your own.
It makes you wonder just how large a big block Chevy is - and the answer is v Large !! I agree that it looks a bit odd, but if those looks say 0-60 in 2.6s, and 0-100-0 in 9.4, then not too many people are going to take the piss. In fact the looks might grow on you - though I don't like the plastic non-opening side windows. It is effectively a road legal track-day car - and if that is what you are after then it is an awesome weapon - it will beat cars 10 times the price. Steve
