It looks like the this car has been run for some time, why has it took so long to get the car on production? I think this car looks to be good enough to be a contender to AE and LOSI. Please Please Mr Kyosho have some top drivers to help with the up and coming drivers to get a good set up. The 4wd suffered from this. Good car but hard to set up. As soon as a top driver gets a good set up, the word spreads around and every body copies off each other. This means more people go better and more Kyosho's win. And everybody knows that everybody wants a wining car.

Maybe I have an official Kyosho picture of the car...

Maybe I can tell you it is due in the UK March/April...

Maybe I can tell you the part number is 30074 and the car is called the Ultima RB-5...

Maybe I can tell you the car should cost somewhat less than £200, perhaps as low as £170 if you pre-order...

Maybe I can tell you that the car has hex screws...

Or maybe I can't?

Those look like some pretty close to production photos to me. It doesn't look like it shares many parts with the ZX-5, but then again how many parts can they share after all? Perhaps they will display one at Nurnberg?

The car does look nice, but Geometry wise looks very much like a B3 with a modified front end moving the shocks behind the front tower (more like the B4) - Will be interesting to see one go though, hopefully they'll be out soon! Makes a nice change to see something else out there!
