Yokomo is the latest company to tease their new 4WD electric touring car kit for the 2020 season. The BD10 is understood to be a whole new platform despite the current BD9 being only roughly a year old. The new car however is expected to follow the current mid-motor/mid-layshaft trend as Yokomo’s teasing video clip is showing the car’s front end with the main gear lurking in on the right side. The kit is expected to hit stores by the end of the year and we bring you more details as they arrive. In the meantime you can check out the BD10 teaser clip

I must say this release seems rushed and basically looks like a copy of the Arrowmax conversion kit. The lengthening of the arms by 2mm seems to be something Yokomo did just to say something else changed. It makes me wonder how much R&D went into this latest release. Is it too much to ask for something a little more forward thinking/advanced? Other companies are doing the mid motor thing as well but most of them have made other major changes....Serpent (new shock configuration, suspension mounts), Schumacher(new arms, suspension mounts, diffs...), Xray (way longer arms 6mm+ I think), Awesomatix (well they are just in another league all together). Anybody else feel the same way?
