Well if there is an Asian version and a EU version, I hope we get the EU. I wonder, if the Asian version will also have a center oneway. If so, I'd be in the same boat as when the BD first came out.
From what I understand, the center pulley can be locked and unlocked for one-way or direct drive. Don't quote me officially on this just yet, but I'll try and find out for sure tonight.

Ah, cool, kinda like the older yoks where you can lock the center with a pin. That would be nice. Hows the team doin at the Cactus?

No way Jimmy, retired, not by a long shot just couldn't do Rock Hill. You going to do the series? Schumacher is pretty good for me not likely to be switching.

thats awsome Steve, thats similar to the BX where all you have to do is tighten the M3 nut and its a locked center or loosen it and becomes a 1-way.

Steve when will the Yokomo RC12R5 World Champion Edition be available? Also, do you have any details on it? Wondering if the rear pod was optimized for brushless.

Hi Guys,

Right now there's a bit of a delay with the graphite chassis being re-worked to accept all brushless motor can styles on the market. Due to this, the release date has been pushed back to 3rd week of April.

Thats cool, if they found a motor that didnt fit to well. I would rather them tweak the design than to have to dremel my new Kit.

They said motors with the coned cans like LRP and Novak, but those like SP with the flat can would not.
