That's actually one of the first question I asked Yokomo USA about was the parts support, and they reply they don't think it will be a problem. Spares will be available for the MR4SDW

Thanks Steve. Rick

So in other words, people can in theory make their own SDW replicas just by buying these parts? Seems the 555 ltd edition title is rather academic then?

Oh well - who cares - we'll find out soon enough!!

I was told by Yokomo USA that the unique parts to the limited edition kit (bulkheads, motor mount, chassis, etc) will be a one run production for the kits and that's it.

The yoke worlds addition looks sweet. I'm torn between it and a 415ms. One day I want one the next day I want the other. Which one would you guys get? The irony is I'm asking this question on a Yokomo thread. The only answer I'll probably get is Yoke.

uhh, get the Yokomo! I think it's actually gonna be cheaper than the 415ms, even though the SD limited is completely loaded with every hopup part available for the SD, including a Team Bomber graphite shaft.

Masami wins the Japanese touring nationals again, I think that's five in a row. Hara TQ but his car broke in the 3rd A-main. Surikain third.

Hi Guys,

Congratulations to Masami! We are also working on a special gift to be included with the MR-4TCSD WC edition. If you're a big Yokomo fan (especially fan of Masami) you'll love this one

Matt, the results can be found here:

Can you convert the JMRCA site to English.

I don't read Japanese and therefore can't find the results. And I would love to read a write up.

Well done Masami.

Didn't take Surikarn too long to get used to the HPI.
