I finally completed my Optima Mid Custom restore. The only one now missing from the family (excluding Salutes and Javelins) is the Mid Custom Special which I did have, but sold as I've never been a fan of it's bodyshell....now some pics :) sorry i didn't take pics along the way from the stripdown and cleaning right through to assembly - I was in the process of changing from a Galaxy Note 2 to a Note 3 (which by the way is super fast!)

Loving your work mate. That's a nice pack of Mids you have there, best RC car ever (perhaps not the right place to say that!)

Cheers! I agree....the Kyosho Optima family are and always have been my favourites and in my opinion the best designs with maybe exception of the Schumacher CAT XLS which looks fast even when standing still.

Nice lineup. 8) Obviously, my favorite series of cars, too.
