Ultima Pairing

Shepherd and Caroline pair up for Ultima drive this weekend



Rising Star 
Jay Shepherd

This weekend will see an exciting combination of drivers in the Colin BlowerMotorsport Ultima.

Tuscan drivers Lee Caroline and Jay Shepherd will pair up to drive the car inthe British GT Championship an Donington. Caroline has raced the car once beforeat Donington where he achieved great things in his session.

Both drivers are looking at the option of driving the car in next year's newformat series.

The car itself has struggled to make an impression with gearbox problemshaving hampered the car for race after race over the last two years. It'snothing that £30K won't put right apparently!

Hopefully a sponsor for this top driver pairing can be found and some theUltima could become a top contender in 2003.

Great result, 4th place, supurb drive from Lee Caroline posting a 1-33.5, and as for Jay Shepherd's brilliant effort to bring the car to the finish line in 4th dispite no 3rd gear, and a part time 4th. Best result of the season.

Yeah, it was great to see the Ultima doing well at last, and driven by two of the rising stars of Tuscan racing, too!
