GTW at Blyton Park

[LuckyP]

Evening Ultima folk.

Spent the the last couple of days with GTWayne, GFWilliams and AWTracksport finishing off the GTW for its maiden track session (yesterday now) before we put it up for sale.

Holy st!!!!! This thing is insane!!

Hats off to Wayne, Clive, Steve Smith, the factory for dreaming up such a platform for Wayne and his team to work their magic on, and more recently Andy Waters and AW Tracksport for bringing the car to it's final condition. Fantastic work chaps.

Just a little teaser for you. I'll write a little more about my experience of this machine in the lead-up to Stoneleigh - perhaps see some of you there.....

Cheers

Lucky

Looking good! The car looks great and it certainly looks like you were enjoying yourself in the video.

We are testing at Blyton next week. Richard at Blyton is a great chap and extremely helpful and hospitable.

Those vids were just what I needed after my starter issues look like preventing me getting my car to Stoneleigh. They have reminded me why I am rebuilding the car.

I am curious what gearbox you are using?

I really like the modified bodywork, it subtly enhances the std lines and with the wheelarch top vents, looks fantastic - I want them for my car!!!

Any more pics & specs for those of us who instead of going to Stoneleigh will be in the garage spannering away?

LOL! Having now fitted the engine & 'box, I've found some extra enthusiasm & energy for the car! Still plenty to do tho', so I reckon the big test is still 2-3mths away

I can't claim those laps.... These were Andy Waters of AW Tracksport.

He was proving the car and setting it up.

He'll be there on Sunday and Monday to talk about the car. The car is being sold with 2 days with him to tailor the car to the new owner's requirements.......

I don't think it can hurt.

yes it is, more so than a duct/intake fitted directly to the roof ( I beleive that its similar to that fitted to the stealth B6 )
