Great pics - thanks for sharing - your Ultima looks great on the track, and I do like the car with the tape around the headlight covers, 917 stylee!

The rear wing on the back of that car looks interesting too, and come to think of it, your wing looks bigger than standard, or am I imagining it?

Great video! One day I'll be able to drive like that I hope!

What engine are you running there?

Also what tyres?

Great shots. The Youtube vid is superb. Looking at the photo, it may be my eyes (seeing an optician next week, lol) but do the front wheels of the yellow car fill the wheel arch more than the other two cars. Do you have any details?

My wing is the Ultima supplied wing. The green Ultima has a very nice carbon fiber APR Performance wing.

ASA LS1 crate engine with additional modifications. The GM ASA crate engine came with a dry sump, upgraded internal bolts, ASA cam, heads. No longer available but a great engine at the time.

Tyres are the BFG Rivals which I am very impressed with. These are approved for the One Lap of America event as the tread ware rating has to be 140 or above.

What's throwing you off is that my Ultima has 17 inch front wheels/tires. 255 size tires. The front wishbones have been lengthen 2.5 inches.
