I thought ...
but if the gtr is the fastest car in the world, what did the legendary nurburgring?
why there is not a given official ??
porsche 918 .....
nissan gtr
I remember that the factory has toured with the GTR 720: What happened ??

as in Top Gear: why never mention his record when comparing?

It rained when the Factory went to the Ring.

Being a small company, the cost of going there for a record run is rather costly.

The Top Gear track record was not done during the show, it is then not official.
The Ultima was presented or used in local UK Top Gear shows twice more than 10 years ago. We will see with the 2 new shows if one of them will present and test the EVO, but I'm not necessarily looking for it, as this show is funny but not very serious. If they can make fun of something, they will!

I'm not sure that the Factory is looking for more promotion right now, as their order book seems well filled since several years.

As much as I love my Ultima the issue they have pitching against Porsche, ferrari and of course Mclaren is stiffer carbon tubs and electronics controlling diff brakes gearboxes traction suspension and now aero. Power is great, but very hard work without control.

The game has moved on and it is now a PlayStation world!

Saying all this I'd rather have a proper drivers car than a one that nannies you you to a quick lap time.
LONG LIVE THE ULTIMA...
