Kyosho experts: what are the Optima Mid Wheelbase lengths?

Quote

Post by oldskool » Thu Feb 07, 2008 3:33 am

I know optima mids came in swb and lwb. I don't know for sure which I have. I did a search and couldn't find anything. Can anyone provide both the swb and lwb measurements?

Thanks!

What are the different wheelbases the mid came in and how many models where there? What were the differences between them? I'm going to begin restoration of one soon and don't know what I have. I do know it has gold shocks and metal shock towers.......
