Raced with all those Nz drivers and still race with Gavin lol
Gavin is the Nz kyosho importer (Toymod), owns and runs gkr raceway, mark porter died at Bathurst driving a v8 supercar, tony owsley lives in Canada last I heard and is into mountain biking and Iām not sure what Ian stuart(guppy) is up to these days, his losi buggies and trucks were a thing of beauty- always looked like brand new every meeting.
Tony came back from that worlds and built a worlds 91 rc 10 with Perspex arms double top plate, finish second at the 91 Nz nats behind a trx-1ā¦ which I have now
wish I had that rc10 more though

On the same page there is also a picture (
http://www.hirosaka.jp/img22/memo23/52.jpg ) of a RC10 without a body, but red wing with yokomo decal (and yellow end plates)
"Mr. Sumita, like Mr. Hirosaka, used the RC-10BX in stock and adjusted the slippers to his liking. Choose the Atlas Orange motor that has been active in world wars"
.... and on page
http://www.hirosaka.jp/story37.html there is another picture of red winged cars:

"Kazutaka Sumita Last year, he conquered the open 2WD class and joined Team Yokomo for his future. This was his first international event after joining the team, but when it was over, he finished in 4th place, solidifying his reputation as a driver representing Japan. Impression. The machine is AX/Dog Works like Hirosaka. I hope that this result will give momentum to the world competition."

Thank you Joksa,
I've updated the firs post with Mr Sumita as the red driver. It sounds most plausible!
wish I had that rc10 more though
