Ultima Can Am

Ultima Can Am, king of Jyllandsringen?

It's time for the annual charity event anno 2014 at Jyllandsringen. Sportscar Event is behind the event.

After about 3 hours of driving, we arrive at Jyllandsringen. We park the car in one of the parking areas on the grass field. From there you can see out over the landscape, since FDM Jyllandsringen is located on a hill.
There's a great atmosphere. Car enthusiasts from all over the country meet here today to see/hear and experience these fantastic machines.

We pay the 50 DKK entry fee and head up towards the big parking area where the supercars are parked.

We start by walking around a bit to get an overview, and to enjoy the fantastic supercars parked side by side.
It's certainly not an everyday sight to see so many supercars gathered in one place. If you love supercars, we can only recommend checking out the event the next time it's held.

After carefully weighing my options, I decide to get a ride in the yellow Ultima Can Am convertible, which is extremely fast!
It has a 6.0L V8 engine with 650 hp and a very low weight of just 850 kg. This ensures a 0-100 time of only 2.6 seconds!!

I buy a ticket for a co-driver ride and walk over to the car. I hand over the ticket and crawl down into the car, where I'm strapped in tight.

The start button is pressed and after a couple of attempts, the big engine, just a few centimetres behind our seats, wakes up.
You can definitely hear that it's not a small eco engine, and at the same time the butterflies start flying around in my stomach.
The doors close like on a Koenigsegg, which is a lovely cool detail.

The driver puts on racing gloves and then it's off towards the track itself. It feels almost surreal seeing all these supercars. Some are on their way in from the track, including a red Ferrari, while we're heading out onto the track, where there's a black Porsche driving ahead of us that's also heading out onto the track.
As we drive out towards the track itself, we pass close to the back straight, where you can hear the various supercars roaring through. We can't see the cars because of a barrier and the spectators watching, but we can hear them clearly.
All of this contributes to an indescribable feeling.

We've now reached the entry road that will take us onto the track itself. The driver floors the throttle and we're pushed back into the seats.

This Ultima Can Am sticks incredibly well to the track, which lets it take corners extra fast. So it doesn't take long before we pass the first two cars, the black Porsche and a Tesla sports car respectively.

I get the feeling that the driver isn't holding back, and the car is therefore driven right to the limit.
It's super fun and also wild to experience how this Ultima Can Am devours one corner after another.

This ride was definitely in the category of one of the fastest we've ever tried! It was an absolutely fantastic experience.
