Car looks nice. It is very important to know what the wind tunnel says about that "radical" aero modifications.
Congrats. anyway.
Cheers,

[deadscoob]

That looks awesome. Whats the full spec?

[spatz]

also scares me, the aero mods, I think I would not like to drive 200mph in a car with unknown aerodynamics.
Always remember the takeoffs at Le Mans. I read that they probably had to much pressure on the rear wing, and not enough
downforce from the front to balance out.

that looks AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!

It's more aero in the front. The front splitter is a true wing and there are very agressive canards as well. The canards are not used on puplic roads though. The opening behind the wheel and the open arches reduces lift very much.

Not many tracks that alow speeds over 200mph anyway.

We haven't tuned in on track yet but I think it will be very grippy in the front (high speed oversteer) so it may need a bigger rear wing.

I'd buy that one of those bodies if they were for sale.... PM me if they are.

I very much like how the screen and side windows blend in together giving it a fighter plane look. Nice

Edited to add: No wiper

sorry do not get me wrong the car looks fantastic, but at these speed levels not much should go wrong, I am pretty sure however that registration here in Germany would be kind of impossible or very difficult. Still the front clip alone might be something I am intersted if you start offering it for sale. It is not too much of work to change the front clip - minutes !

BTW Mikael, did you actually convert the red one, or is this a new car ?
The engine bay looked crazy with all the tubing, do you have a link to the spec of what you have installed there ?

The front clip could easily be mounted on a stock Ultima. If the front splitter is wanted some mods to the radiator area has to be done.

This isn't my red car. This is the car owned by Jon Olsson and it was original Silver and built by Kristian Maajola. It's the famous 0-340 car.

The engine is a Lexus with twin turbos.

We will update with much more pics and information shortly. Jon is on Gotland with the car and have promised to take some nice pictures of the car and details.

We had a ferry to catch There will be a wiper in the near future. Stock still fit.

[UltimaCH]

Hopefully with the wonderful wiper option?

Looks like the car was parked under the 40t trailor. As you where taking a ferry, hope it was secure otherwise the car could have ended up been a pancake
Now that could have become an interesting new aerodynamic shape

That looks absolutely fantastic! Very well done! It looks ready to be entered into LeMans!!
