Prepare for another world-shaking sensation!
The legendary ULTIMA reenters the spotlight as the 8th installment in the Kyosho Vintage Series.
The resounding impact of the ULTIMA's remarkable TQ (Top Qualifier) status and its 1-2-3 sweep in the 2WD class at the 2nd Electric Off-Road World Championship in England in 1987 reverberated throughout the RC car community. Now, Kyosho's iconic ULTIMA makes a triumphant return, marking its position as the 8th model in the Kyosho Vintage Series!
Initially launched in 1986, the 2WD ULTIMA harnessed the racing expertise from the OPTIMA, propelling it into a whirlwind of electric racing buggy excellence that captivated enthusiasts worldwide. Staying true to the Vintage Series ethos, the 2019 version of the ULTIMA has undergone a transformation in design and construction to meet the exacting performance standards of modern R/C racing circuits and power sources.
For instance, the monocoque frame boasts construction from aircraft-grade A60601T6 aluminum alloy, while multi-pin block pattern rear tires deliver peak performance on contemporary off-road tracks. Comprehensive ball bearing specifications minimize power loss, complemented by robust sintered alloy metal gears, a slipper clutch, and a motor guard that safeguards the drive system. To enhance durability, a crash-resistant resin rear wing is also included.
Experience the nostalgia of ULTIMA's glory with the 2019 version, which has evolved into a modern-day racing marvel that allows you to drive like a true world champion.
