Hi guys: I am going to be in England the 25th of May. I planned on this stop over on the way back from Moscow back to L.A.. Original intention was to travel up to Hinkley to see Richard, Ted and the crew. But now I found out that May 25th is a holiday in England, go fiqure. Soooo do any of you have any suggestions of racing-muesum-factory tours ect that might be intresting to a fellow Ultima owner?

Take a walk on the Donnington Park museum. It could be a interesting site where to espend the morning time. A lot of motor history inside.
Cheers,

That's a very good recommendation, I'd second it.

There's also a motorcycle museum at Coventry if that's your bag.

Thanks guys. Richard from Ultima had E mailed me with the brookland web site info looks like a great place to visit. Also thanks for the suggestion on Donnington. the last tiome I visted the factory they suggested that I go there. That is a pretty neat place. I sent a inquiry to the Brookl;and web site to see if they would be open on the holiday, no answer yet. Again Thanks, Lee

Where are you flying into. That could be quite important?

Lucky I will be flying into Heathrow the evening of the 24th. I will be staying at a hotel near the airport. Looks like its 58 miles to the track. Is this a well attended event as far as cars go? Thanks for the input. Lee
