The Type-A ULT (Ultra-Lightweight Version) body is the second instalment of the Zero Tribe & Exotek collaboration which won last year’s RC Super GT Championship and is a long-awaited lightweight version for users competing not only in GT categories, like the RC Super GT Championship, but also in open-body races. The ULT Version is approximately 20-grams lighter than the previous model, providing more agile handling and an advantage on circuit and in races. The Bittydesign ARES1 get the Ultra Lightweight treatment further enhancing its low profile and excellent driving characteristics which are designed to match today’s low centre of gravity touring car chassis.
