Well finally after 24 years since i last raced my Kyosho Mid Optima Turbo i have finally found another.

Once i have found the rest of the smaller items i shall put this together. Lovely!

It's missing a few parts so i wasn't as bad as the few unreal ones ive seen on the bay.

It stand's me at 350.00.

My brother has an Optima Mid Custom Special! Nice car actually, but hasn't turned a wheel in a decade.... Shame. Might be worth a few quid now?

I had the exact same car many many years ago, it was fantastic back in the day!

Myself and three of my friends all had the exact same car,and would sown hours racing them head to head.

As we always seemed to crash head in to each other, we must have got through about 50 sets of front wishbones each!

It got to be very expensive.

Sadly I think I threw it away about 10 years ago.

I reckon in decent nick they are worth around 150 pounds.

The prices for unbuilt kit's are stratospheric , there was the same kit as mine totally blister packed up and new old stock for about 3 thousand dollars.
