Robert Batlle has recently won the European Championship 2007 using Ultimate Racing products. What other major races have Ultimate drivers won?
The different National Championships in Europe have not finished this year yet, but during the last 5 years Ultimate Racing team drivers have won 4 European Championships, 10 National Championships, 1 Indoor Holland and 1 Off-road Meeting with truggy, among others.

When was Ultimate Racing established, and how quickly has the company grown?
Ultimate Racing was established in 1998. We started supplying UR products just in Spain, and we started exporting them to Europe through a net of distributors just 2 years ago. We really want to thank all Ultimate Racing distributors that have trusted in our brand from the beginning, because they have helped us to make Ultimate Racing a well-known brand throughout Europe.

Ultimate Racing sponsors many of the top European drivers, are there any plans to expand the team and company outside of Europe?
Yes, we are looking for distributors in South America, USA, India, Australia and Asia.

Similarly, Ultimate Racing appears to be very focused on 1/8th scale off-road racing. Are there plans to move into other classes, perhaps on-road?
Well, some of the Ultimate Racing products can be used for on-road and Rally-Game classes too, but you are right, our main market is 1/8th off-road racing.

What gives Ultimate Racing products the edge, compared to similar companies in the market?
The high level of racing experience that Ultimate Racing Team has, the good relationship with our drivers, and the necessities detected by our technical department allows us to make products for hi-competition, which can be used for beginners also because of its simplicity. By the way, this simplicity makes the prices very competitive, what it makes everything easy when it is time to get into a new country.

Are there any new products on the way from Ultimate, can we get a sneaky hint?
Mmmmmm yes, there are some new products on the way that will be available after our summer holidays like the well-known compak clutch system in 3 more different hardness, new flywheels, new brake pads, new light and covered wheel nuts, some new tools, wheel balancer and bodyshell spray paint among others… By the way we are preparing some secret promotional actions that we are sure will like to all RC addicts.
