Hello all. My father and I are both interested in building Ultimas, but obviously want to look at one in person first. Will anyone be bringing thier Ultima to Le Mans? Regretfully, I won't be there, but my father will.

I will be there.
If your Father goes in through the main road in to the circuit and follows the road round to the right in about 100M there is an entrance to the circuit on the left and car park on the right.
Go into that entrance and turn left towards the grandstand. Before long you will come upon the factory demonstrators that just happen to be parked there minding their own business. And hopefully doing good business.
Not seen the team there with them but I suppose that would be too much like an impromptu trade stand.

Steve

Waits for the factory to say they're not going this year.

Steve D meet Shithot! Shithot meet Bluesatin! Bluesatin meet ....... Oh Bollox! I'll not go through a full set of introductions! But suffice to say, all mentions so far as attending are in fact all in the same convoy down and on the same trip to the same camp site. Not all involved though are driving Ultimas No! Some are taking FAST cars!

Great, my dad can't wait to come inspect a few GTR's. He will be attending with a large group (25?) of Corvettes, with Chevrolet I believe, to watch the C6R show off it's tail lights - sorry, you have to support your heritage . Prepare to be raided by one crazy Texan, but not the craziest, that's me.
