Just how an Ultima should be enjoyed.

Going so fast the side windows have blown out!!



I suspect you were enjoying that.

Good times!

The side windows are screwed in with about 6 screws and can be removed in minutes.

I did a trackday like that and I have to say that is not much fun. The car is still quick but you are constantly locking wheels or wagging the tail!!

V8Dom, Interesting you noticed that. I actually added more angle the day earlier to test it. The rear was loose and wanted to come around more then I would prefer. It definelty helped reduce the rear from sliding. I dont like the angle. I needed to figure out why the rear wants to come around.

Rear end slide can be a number of things from geometry to high tyre pressures when hot etc etc.
