FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Kyosho MP777 WC Team Edition

Tuesday, August 22, 2006 - Kyosho has announced a new full-option
MP777 WC Team Edition 1/8 off-road buggy, which will be the car run by
the Kyosho International Team drivers at the 1/8 Off-Road IFMAR World
Championship in Indonesia. Based on the MP777 SP2, the new WC Edition
will include many of the option parts develop over the last year in
anticipation of the World Championship race. Each of the upgraded
parts makes incremental improvements to what is already the most
successful line of competition nitro off-road racers in the history of
RC racing.
Using the 777 SP2 as the foundation of the WC Team Edition means the
SP2 will benefit from all the parts developed for the WC Edition. In
fact, many of the parts that will be included in the WC Team Edition
kit are already available as option parts for the SP2. So if you're in
the market for a new buggy and you want the best-equipped model
available, the WC Team Edition is the clear choice. The total retail
cost of the additional factory performance parts that are now standard
in the WC Team Edition total more than $290, but the street price will
only increase by $10 over the SP2! That's $280 worth of extra value
for FREE! Current SP2 owners can also upgrade with available option
parts.

The content of the WC Team Edition kit includes many features of the
current SP2 plus all the following factory options:

• Partially equipped with titanium screws
• SP heavy-duty aluminum front chassis brace (IFW323F)
• SP heavy-duty aluminum rear chassis brace (IFW323R)
• 2 Pair of ACRE bonded semi-metallic brake pads (IFW324)
• Hard front lower suspension arm (IF330H)
• Hard rear lower suspension arm (IF331H)
• Hard wing mount (IF121H)
• Hard dish wheels (IFH001)
• 14T SP clutch bell (IFW47)
• 48T lightweight spur gear (IFW325)
• New rear shock tower (TBA)
• New, heavy-duty shock diaphram (TBA)

•• Available early December

Would have been a surprise if one hadn't come out, after a few of those parts were previewed on the ST-R.

Looking forward to seeing if they can regain the title - the 1/8th competition is a lot tougher now than it was on the 90's/early-noughties.
