Thanks Dom

We would have enjoyed the event better if the car didn't break during its first run!!

It would have been nice to see more Ultima's. Maybe we could congregate at the next Vmax?

there will be a few there next year im sure and i know one is going to be very very quick!!!

i think we will see 200mph broken by an Ultima, it will have the power, gearing and aerodynamics to do it but will the driver have the bottle. I think 2010 will be a big year for the marque.

He's a video of a similar event in the US. The Texas Mile. In the video Tanner Foust reaches 204 MPH in the 2ns GT40, but the 3rd one set a new record at 231 MPH.
