I am overwhelmed. Although I am still confused. ( due to my lack of basic knowledge of the engine)
THEN, back to my original question, why would kyosho make 4 stroke engine for their car? what advantage do they see by doing this?

Hey BK, You are the guy in X-RC CAR Mag right?
Are you having fun testing all the engine?
I was wondering what engines are gonna be on the next Issue?
Keep up the good work....
To answer your original question. 200mm cars were originally designed to run on smaller twisty tracks which they do in most parts of the world. For this type of track the 4-stroke would be a huge benefit due to its awesome low end torque for brilliant acceleration.
