With many thanks to my friend Jason F. who donated this amazing example of an Ultima Pro XL, Part 1 of what will be a 2 part video series as I discuss my own history with 2WD Kyosho buggies and where I want to go on this build.
Thank you to Jason for the kind donation. It's greatly appreciated.

The Pro XL. Restoring one I got last year. Wanted an XL from the day it dropped, the huge wing and wide body. Just love it.

Hi Jason, Cool story about your early days of racing. I used to frequent ABC at Beverly Hills until they closed. I bought a couple 34° stocks from there back then. Burnt them out fairly quickly in my Optima mid. I raced an Ultima pro around that time too. It was quick and smooth with a thorp gear set. I wanted an XL but ended up getting a JRXT from Dave Smith which I converted to a buggy which im glad I still have.

Thank you for checking out the video Michael. It's fun reliving our old memories from bitd. I had to go over to the Beverly Hills store at one point where I purchased a lightly used Triumph. Great store just like the one at Campbelltown. I like that we have struck up a friendship and being able to relay old stories and experiences from our Bormac days. I hope you and yours have a great Xmas,

Thank you John. It's been great looking back at where I started in the hobby and sharing it with the audience. The Turbo Ultima was such a special car for me being that it was my first 2WD plus it came to me at the coolest of times in my life back when I had talked my way into a junior sponsorship deal. I hope you have a Merry Xmas.

@@Bormac073 glad you shared this with us all. Not a bad first 2wd . Mine was a hornet. I got an old battered one from a friend years ago that I'm going to restore to the same look as my old one . 80's were definitely the best time for RC 👌
