Went to school with him, his dad started the company when he used to race them, then bought the rights to the car from Lee Noble (who designed the
original MK1,2 and 3 Ultimas).
My mate now jointly runs the company with his dad.

I was just about to say "talk to NS DEV". Now ....... guess who's mate goes to Le Mans ever year in the company car? Guess
who's mate takes his mate with him?
Guess who's jealous of someones mates then again, i doubt my nerves could stand the journey.

He was unusually sensible for most of the way down this year.
The nerve wracking bit for me is that I'm the overtaking "caller" (rhd car in lhd country obviously) and on some of the long
straights between Rouen and Alencon, in the burning heat, the mirage effects low down on the road were hiding all sorts of trucks and cars  
Luckily their current demo car seems able to overtake a car in the normal gap between two oncoming ones
