Hello everybody,
New on this forum and happy owner of a GTR since june, here is a video
of my second track day with my Ultima on the High Technology Test Track (HTTT)in south of France.
Sorry for my poor english, I'm french (I know, nobody's perfect).
May be some of you could be interested in a track day on the HTTT Paul Ricard...If yes, I can help. Why not a meeting for example in may, june, july or august next year ?

I talked of your video and the green GTR yesterday after having found an article on Le BlogAuto! Nice car. Didn't we also exchange some words on the Swiss forum recently?

Hell yes!!!

What's your link with Paul Ricard? That looked like an Toyota F1 car behind you...but if it was this year then it would have been the wrong colours.

Yes, I'm up for a hol in the SoF. Pressed my nose up against the gates, but never been let in. Lovely part of the world.

No particular links with HTTT but track days are organised usually once each month.
It's confidential enough but I can inform you of dates, prices and conditions.
For example, the next time will be 23rd of november.

Behind me (and then before) it was a World Series driven by Ange Barde, european champion
of the Ferrari Challenge.

Watcha Fred ( good old fashion French name that hehe ) what are the noise restrictions, if any, like at PR HTTT?

At the time, there where NO restrictions. If F1 cars and other "noisy" vehicles can practice on the track, I assume no restrictions. There is also a small airport (operational?)in the complex on which jets can land, so......

I have an idea.... idea Why not charter an Antonov and ship all the Ultimas in the UK and Europe down there for week-end of unrestricted fun??

Hum.... now all I have to do is talk to Bernie phone and convince him that we are good guys whistle
