When 300km/hour is not enough, there are some ideas to create jet-powered aircraft using Shark design, so You could fly 400-500 km/hour according to used engine.

Price-induction jet looks nice for that purposes :
At Take Off Power, you can get up to 255daN, consuming 80kg/h of fuel for the DGEN 380 and 330daN with 100kg/h fuel consumption for the DGEN 390.

of course - this kind of aircraft cannot be called Ultralight, although its empty weight could be very similar

Tim O'Connor , EAA 714900, wrote very nice article about his experiences with buying of Skyboy aircraft and its flying from Florida to Ohio - for January EAA Sport Pilot magazine :

As my wife, Connie, progressed in her sport-pilot fixed-wing flying lessons, we started talking about buying an airplane. We wanted an enclosed cockpit aircraft efficient at long cross-country flights. Being a gyroplane owner and pilot, I didn't have experience purchasing a fixed wing.
