yes, "expected" seems appropriate

but....
what if both launches were by amature enthusiasts? then it might be a bit more credible... but just seeing the numbers doesn't say that, so i'm just fishing
Well, Ultima use their own driver (the owner of the company, IIRC) so I would expect him to be able to get the best out of the car. As for the McLaren, I would just say that people have to be realistic. A car with that much power and so little weight is going to always be very, very fast.

When all is said and done, I respect the numbers that the Ultima puts down, but it's ugly as hell and doesn't do anything for me.
