Hi Simon, good day out Number of Ultimas peaked at 20 unless I can't count! Nice to see some new faces. Steve.D is so pi$$ed off with his tyres going down, he now carries a tent with him

BTW, why was there no Canam on the company stand

Hi All
I went to Stoneleigh today and was very impressed with the turnout of Ultimas. As a new Ultima owner with car just on its wheels I was pleased to find this site.

A quick question, my build CD (GTR) has gone missing and I wonder if anyone would be kind enough to copy theirs and post to me? Happy to make a contribution. My Website is www.jaferguson.com/

Great to see everyone today. Simon your EFI looks great I will have to start saving
Gary, yes I agree with you but I wont say a word!
Steve won’t really stay there tonight, he will wait till everyone’s gone because he is frightened of the dark
Hope that guy with the black GTR sorted out his drive shaft bolts
see you all soon

Keith

20 Cars!

Was there space for everyone to park then by the Ultima stand...?

I'm thinking I might come in the Ult now (Monday), even though I have some minor (very) damage to the front clip, and lots of stone chips that even seemed to have penetrated the masking tape!

Only just got back as I stopped at the girlfiends last night! It was great to see so many Ultimas. It was good to see Simon and Phil with the cars running EFI and to put faces to all the names. Hopefully next time I will have the Can-Am up and running. Not to far off now!

Regards Dave

I'm back now so you can stop talking about me behind my back.

1. Ditto, the number you have in small print down the side of the brochure is the correct number.
2. Re Factory CanAm, someone took a test drive, said that's nice I'll take it and produced the readies. Would have been rude not to take it. (something along those lines)
3. I'm not as damp now as I was.
4. Great turn out, 20 yesterday and 5 today.
5. Who else bought one of those splendid Ultima towels?
6. Great EFI, must get me one of those but after the wheels methinks.

Steve

I suppose we were all too busy admiring Simon and Phils' EFI to take any photos of such a great turnout?
