Whose Ultima GTR is this? Looks like the bike beat it at the end.

What bike was it? How much bhp/torque are you running? What type of engine you have under there? What was the time difference between you and the bike? Thanks.

Oops, sorry!!!

I didn't know for definate. Some forums support it and others don't. This one obviously doesn't!!.

The Ultima is stickered up just now.... Technically if I posted a picture of the ultima, it would just be a coincidence that it had the text number on it??? Yes??? lol biggrin (incase anyone takes offence that was meant as a joke wink )

The MR2 looks like a fast motor, but there's different levels of fast eh? By the way, a bird with an Ultima? How cool is that?

An Ultima is so quick that I normally compare it to a bike rather than a sports/supercar. Unless, it's a Bugatti Veyron, a low-spec Ultima is quicker/faster than 90% of the stock cars on the road. Wait, isn't Jeff's 1000+ hp Ultima faster than a Bugatti Veyron?

When you say faster, do you mean top speed or do you mean 0-60, 30-80 times etc.. The Veyron has a power to weight of around 530 bhp per tonne and it weighs nearly two tonnes. On a dry track day I'll bet most Ultimas will post quicker times as the cars have similar power to weight but with Ulitmas being lighter they change direction more easily. In a straight line, who knows... Jeff has won the 0-200-0 challenge in the US so that's a good sign, not sure if any Veyrons turned up wink

Faster as in top speed, acceleration, I remember Jeff mentioned about a modded GT2 box that's geared for 250+mph. A 720hp American Speed Ultima GTR does 0-60mph in 2.6secs, 0-100mph in 5.3 secs, and 0-150mph in 11.8secs. With Kuhmos, better traction, 0-100mph+ could be improved. There's a video on youtube of an Ultima GTR (Swedish) that did a 0-211mph in 19 secs. No Bugatti Veyron can accelerate as quick as that Ultima. Moreover, that Ultima only had 800+, not sure if it's at the crank or at the wheels...
