Yokomo Touring Car Prototype
Yokomo is preparing a new touring car for the Worlds in August 2008 in Thailand. The Yokomo team has already made some runs with a couple of prototypes. Shown on the picture above is the most recent touring car prototype from Yokomo. This prototype has a new top-deck, rear hubs, steering rack, arms and suspension mounts. Masami had run this car recently at the Reedy Race of Champions in the invitational class and finished second. Here are some detailed shots of Masami's car:
This car may look pretty standard but it has the needed modifications to make the old BD up-to-date. Yokomo has also made a second more radical prototype which they've shown on the Shizuoka Show in Japan. The Yokomo team has this car run on the LRP Masters, but without any big success. Here are some pictures of the second (older) prototype:
