The 0-180 and 0-220mph look really optimistic, given it takes several miles for cars like the F1, Enzo, CGT, Ford GT to reach their maximum velocities. With enough traction and gearing, the 0-60 and 100 figures would be do-able.

My $.02.

I agree with quigs, if theres a car that can get to top speed (espacialy one of 220) then as far as top speed goes, its got the wrong gear ratios. If thats true, i bet the top speeds far higher, maybe 250.

General Specifications:
Weight 2,183 Lbs. / 990 Kilo

Body/Design Lee Noble
Country Of Origin United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland

Acceleration (MPH, Seconds):
0-10 0.58
0-20 1.023
0-30 1.426
0-40 1.865
0-50 2.322

0-100 5.566
0-120 8.016
0-150 11.85


Quarter Mile 10.3 (est. from 10.5 on a concrete runway)
0-100-0 10.3
100-0 3.9

The initial acceleration figures may be ok if they have lots of grip - the Ultima's rear tyres aren't huge.

That would put the 0-100-0 time about right.

Shame that Ultima now have a 700bhp+ motor awaiting installation.
An extra 80 odd bhp will probably be a bit handy.

PS it got to 205mph on a 1.8 mile runway (i.e it also slowed down considerably within that distance). In the damp.

thats what i was thinking, what would be a more reasonable 0-180 and 0-220? given the drag coefficient, and horspower
