My first real rc car was an 1986 Kyosho Turbo Optima four wheel drive with a chain drive for four wheel drive but later was upgraded to a belt drive system when it became available. I bought it at AAA Hobby in Kingsport, TN when Dale was still on Lynn Garden Dr. :ah1:

Never knew they raced RC until I hooked up with you Addicts :D
