Default Yokomo YZ-4

Discuss...

With the announcement of the YZ-2 and, what looks like the retirement of the bmax name, will we see a YZ-4 in time for the Worlds?

The bmax 4 iii has only been out a year though. Still waiting for them to release the v3 version with the v3 shocks

What are v3 shocks? You mean the new bottom shock caps? They are included in de latest kits wich include de LW chassis.

There is a B-Max 4 III factory on amain.

Nothing to discuss (assumption is the mother of all f*ck ups) . This isn't RCTech where people get all hyped up for car that isn't going to be released anytime soon.

That "Factory" kit is put together by Amain. It's not a official Yokomo release.. So I wonder who will order that kit anywhere other than the US.

a "YZ-4" is not coming anywhere soon, or they should switch to a belt driven car. I don't see that happen anytime soon. For those who don't know about Yokomo history (brand hoppers): YZ is the 'previous' prefix for offroad cars, just google for the 'YZ10'.

In my opinion it's way too soon for a brand new car. Small updates here and there yes but I doubt you'll see a new 4wd for at least another year.

Famous last words.....

So lets get the rumour mill going again...

Will we see it in time for the Worlds?

They will. The YZ-2 is released as well and parts are still available for the B-Max2. Will be the same for the new 4WD (and thus B-Max4 III).
