YRX-10W '98 World Champion NIB

Post by amuse »

Hey guys, here is my newly acquired Yok. It's a YRX-10W World Champion model. I've include a pic of the earlier version for comparison. I haven't looked at the assembly manual yet, but just by looking at the chassis, the major difference compare to the version that i have is the change from a side by side battery layout that runs along the middle of the chassis to a saddle pack layout on both side of the chassis. I will have to check the manual to see if the front suspension is any diff compare to the old. and I am assuming there are slight changes made to the rear as well. I'll snap a few pics when i open up the manual.

Enjoy
Wilson

hey Marui, what other pics you want to see? The pics for the original YRX-10 i have posted in another thread HERE. If you want to see more of the "98 version, you will have to wait. I haven't decided when to start the built since i have TOO many cars sitting on my shelf and it's actually over flowing to other parts of my room which I am sure my gf will kill me if i add one more without finding a solution first.

So until then, I am afraid I will not be ripping any of the plastic bags for the '98 version. sorry!

Amuse is that a "Between car" like before the YRX-2000 came out? I am curious because the 2000 went to saddle pack and t-bar, and from the looks of it, that looks like the YRX-2000 chassis.

Excellent find. Did you have to sell body parts to acquire it? Hope you have a nice body shell for it. Thanks for posting.
