Kyosho Sierra Cosworth

[grimlock 97]

I got this along with a Tamiya Wrangler and an unknown trailer from eBay. I did not know what it was until I did a little research.

The main reason to buy it was the Wrangler. I always wanted a trailer too. But now that I found out that the Cosworth is kind of rare, I thought I`d share some photos.

I don`t think I will run it. But it looks good on the trailer. It features an interesting way to hold the body (see pic). I really would like to have something like that on my Tamiyas as I always lose clips.

Those are so cool. That's a Raider chassis, in case you don't know; not exactly racy, but a decent handler and very nearly unbreakable. But the body is pretty rare, so if you do run it, drive carefully...

And yeah, those cam-lock body posts were a Kyosho selling point back then. They're nice, but I'd still rather have hidden Velcro or magnetic mounts.

Nice to see one that's not the standard black with Texaco logos...
