Hi guys, I'm trying to persuade another Scottish Ultima owner to come to Silverstone, but the above code is coming up invalid on the Silverstone site. .... Are all the places booked up now??
Cheers. Mark.

It's too late now to book online, their cut off date was 31st May.
However if you contact the factory we can likely get you included.

So are we meeting up at the same hotel? It was nice enough destination although speed bump round the back was harsh.

Not long to go now.

Not much chatter on here. What are people doing or did the deluge of rain last year put people off?

There is some chatter on the Ultima owners FB group, myself and another 3 Scottish Ultima owners are staying at the Hinckley island hotel on the friday and the saturday nights so will be meeting up and convoying to Silverstone on the saturday and sunday mornings! I have a Can am and it rained all the way home and Im not put off! This year I'll be sporting some extra equipment that should see an end to that problem! wink

Last year the pre convoy meet was great and I really enjoyed the convoy with so many Ultimas! It was amazing!

Factory, is there any special arrangements this year for meeting up? Also the chap that was looking to book a few posts above found a nice sales person to get him in on the stand smile
Just a wee reminder of the awesomeness last year...

Fair enough! In that case I'll start the ball rolling for both the Saturday AND the Sunday. Shamelessly copied from last years arrangements

Let me know if you are planning to meet us. We have a Black Can Am, white Can am and a red GTR all the way from scotland! we are heading down friday so will be at the Hinckley Island on the Saturday morning and Sunday morning.

CONVOY FINAL PLAN Saturday 30th and 31st July 2016

-Depart Hinckley Island Hotel at 7am prompt (as traffic at Silverstone entry is likely to be huge later on we have been advised and you have to be in the designated Ultima Parking Area by a set time or they won't let you in and it will be public car park only). If some folk would prefer to leave the Hinckley Island Hotel later at a more leisurely time this is no worries at all we will see you at Silverstone later on. Last year realistically we chatted for a bit and left at 7.30 and it was starting to get pretty busy.
-As per above high chance of Factory cars joining us for the run!
- Open invite for some video ideas on the way so if anyone with a go pro/dog cam we could make a wee video of our experiences. Maybe get some drone footage of the convoy or stand if anyone fancies that?
- try and get some cool convoy shots for the first approx 10mins of our journey at just 40mph ish whilst cars are all warming up to temp.
- I'll be bringing some CB radios so we can keep the convoy together so if you have some bring them along and we can select a frequency to keep us all together


Route is A5, A43, A413

We can add an optional meeting point isf anyone wants to meet up before the final approcah!...........Let me know if you are likely to be here and we can use the same meeting point as last year.


FINAL destination
Silverstone Circuit NN12 8TN - The Ultima Parking Area is located at Entrance 5, Zone 8.


If any of the above gets too complicated and starts to go a bit out of shape on the day as convoys aren't always easy to hold together, simply see you all at the Silverstone Ultima Parking Area

To the factory.

I can't talk for everyone who has been affected by cancer, but from me I thank you for the donation the factory has made and to all who made this possible.

I notice a number of car clubs did parade laps of the circut this year and it certainly would be amazing as owners but also in think for the spectators if we get a few Ultima's out on the track before the racing starts wink
