the ultimate and xi share 90% of the same parts, think of tbe ultimate as a fully tricked out xi, both will be competetive out of the box,both will get you to the same place at the end of the day. The xi will be a little easier to set up & drive thanks to the extra flex of the frp chassis.
really comes down to how much you want to spend and how long you want to wait for the kit, you will be happy with either one.
