801rcc 2013 Ultra4 R/C, Race #2 "Last Stand"
Ultra4 racing is the blender of man, machine and the elements. Ultra4 racing challenges a driver unlike any other R/C event. Drivers must try to find the balance of speed and crawling, on courses that continue to challenge and entertain. Drivers must travel across large venues, sometimes tapping the rev-limiter on their Brushless system. Other times it's a slow technical journey into terrain that could snap a lesser vehicle. Many Drivers feel that just finishing is an accomplishment. So top off those lipos, check you nuts and bolt, grab a hand full of throttle, and leave the rest of the world behind!!
