Kyosho?

Has anyone seen any of the Kyosho 1/43 slot cars for sale yet?
On a French slot site there are pictures of a trade show featuring not just their cars, but also a track system(limited).
There is also the announcement of a wireless throttle for you modern guys.
Cheers,
Kev

Nee PMs last night Lloyd!
Really want to try a Kyosho!
Cheers

Thanks Lloyd.
I tried a couple at the Swap meet back in May.
I really want the two vintage Porsches for my Jouef layout.
Prices don`t seem too bad either!
Cheers.
Kev.
Thanks Mudchukka.
I`ll keep my eyes peeled.
Cheers
Kev.
I reckon you should send one of the Porsches up North to see how it goes & looks on a proper old 1/40 layout!
Mind you, it might get lost in the post on the way back down ......

Very nice indeed Mudchukka!
I don`t think the price is too bad.
Can`t wait to buy those 2 vintage Porsches!
Cheers,
Kev.
Rolannd.
The cars are retailing in England at £23 for a road car & £26 for a liveried sports car. That`s not a bad price for the quality.
I`ve got the pre-order in for our club to run a series.
Cheers
Kev.
Great video Mudchukka!

I`ve just ordered my first Kyosho car! A nice red Porsche 917.

I`ll test drive it (& post pics)on my 1/40 Jouef layout & my vintage Scaley layout when it arrives.

Only paid £22 plus postage, seems a good deal!
Cheers
Kev.
As soon as it arrives I`ll post pics on both the Jouef & Scaley layout chaps.
Cheers,
Kev.

Just to tie in a few questions on this thread re Kyosho & pics of the cars I have posted elsewhere.
I`ve received my first four cars this week.
They all go extremely well straight out of the box, on both my Jouef & Scalextric (classic track) layouts.
Grip is very good with an excellent turn of speed.
The two Porsche 962 cars & the Audi R8 sit well on the track with all 4 wheels touching the ground.
The front wheels of the Porsche 917k are very slightly raised off the track, but this does not impede performance in any way.
The paint job & detailing on all cars is excellent.
The two 962 cars have rubber mirrors to prevent snapping.
I also ordered in spare parts. These were readily available & cheap. Eg., £1.99 for a set of 4 tyres!
Race tuned parts are also available. I got an upgrade motor to try out...I`ll let you know the difference in speed when I`ve fitted it.
All in all these cars & spares are excellent value for money.
www.dslot43.co.uk is the dealer I use , & he has a great section on his site previewing some interesting future releases.
Cheers,
Kev
