JC. You have that seat very close to the steering wheel. How do you get in there?

I am 5' 9" and my seat is almost all the way back!

Hi Paul - think the angle is a little misleading but I got a QR boss post IVA which does mean it is a little closer than if it had been welded on rather than bolted. Getting in and out is therefore easy. Covered in CF to be to make it all look tidy and production likes do so not obviously QR :-)

Excellently Paul.

I was quicker in a straight line, corners i had less of an advantage than expected, but put it down to me being on knackered kumhos with 8k on them - he was on fresh pzero trofeo r’s.

Nice chap, came up to me and said that it “goes like hell”. Nice comment from a 675lt owner.

Good to hear the Ultima can still hold it's own with the high-tech competition.
Things have moved on a great deal in the last 5 to 7 years.

Impressive, Dont forget the 675 will have a ton of active aero mods and the trefeos are staggeringly grippy tyres!

They can more than hold their own still Paul smile

Ive been on track a few times with a 650s, and have always been impressed at how capable they are on track for a road car, the 675 was a notch up and was just stunning. Would love one.

good notice.!
top speed in silverstone with gtr?
how long is the straight?

my gtr with ferrari 488 ,equal in progression from 60 to 270 kmh (straight end smile ).
I believe that 488 and 675 are the same in progression in straight

I recognise that this won’t be to everyone’s taste, but I am rather fond of my new wrap job.

Gets a thumbs up from me.

I really like the wraps i’ve seen and think the car suits the race-car look.
