That is simply brilliant!

Well done Ted and Co........

The icing on the cake would be if TG actually take note and do a bit on their show on this....but politics as I know to my cost....!!!?????????

I really do hope so...

Again...well done!

Ultima article said:
The record attempt was organized by Ultima Sports Ltd themselves in conjunction with Plans Motorsport after apparently being overlooked by the producers at Top Gear TV over the last couple of years despite repeated approaches.
Why doesn’t that surprise me...? TG is more entertainment than car based these days….

Congratulations Ultima. Well done.

Even managed to get the gloves right as well.

I hope that top gear can come to their senses and see there target audience for what it is “pistonheads” and that the commercial size of the company does not dictate what gets seen on tv.
If I was in the UK I would get my self along to the show and into the front row with a Ultima t-shirt and poster/banner and givem heaps. Question then becomes

What one lineer would you give to JC?

Talking about Tee-shirts......

I have been booked to go to the MP5 Show on Nov 9th, and could possibly be persuaded to doo a streak mit ULTIMA tee-hee shirt across the arena.....just to get the message across to Jeremy!

Anyone join me? .....Factory? got a tee shirt fer me?

Not sure I want to think too much about that one! hurl

..er, maybe a simple placard will suffice!

My mum has said I have to tidy my room tonight, but I'll get to it in the near future.

PS. It's a lap behind a load of other cars so not ragging it.
