You won't have much of a fight against Ultimas. Any time I've seen them on track they cruise around for a few laps then break

sounds like a straight fight to me.. first out of pits, gentle meander round, sprint back in...

And 2 out of the 3 Nobles have been sold in disgust at their inability to stand up to track days without also breaking....................

I heard that..
Esprit raced reliably for 10 yrs on and off but she needs more tlc in her 'golden years'.. but I intend to comprehensively go over everything over time.

Yup - 'cos Brian was one of those disgusted owners....
The Ultimas always mysitfy me. The engines are basically rock-hard yank performance lumps and, looking at the parts, the car itself is not a shed (they all use new parts - no uprights off a cortina or anything)
I guess it's a case of bad assembly, or not enough thought given to track prep.
As for the TD's - phone Dreadnaught (garage in Callendar) about them. Don't have the number to hand, but they show up with a quick Google.
