anyone got any pics of these cars? are they anygood, or worth much to a collector or Yokomo guy.

im supposed to be getting a yr4 in a trade with some cars from a local guy,never heard of one of these before.
obviously ill turn around and clean it up and post it and trade for a gold pan or parts, but if its not "popular " or has no value to some one, ill pass it up.

think its graphite with rpm stuff, i thought it was a awd, but he said its only 2wd due to a belt or something.
can some one post a pic of wat it looks like?

its a carbone or cabone car, unless he was trying to say carbon as in carbon fiber, so that would be graphite rite?
this one im getting was supposed to be old, but when i google it i get this new stuff

YR-4 was very popular here and in japan. and so many variations were released
YR-4, YR-4 compact, YR-4 II, YR-4 II Pro, YR-4 Type J (for stick batteries). YR-4 GP (gas)
and YR-4 based F-1, YR-4 with offroad tires with Pajero body (wheels and tires were similar with tamiya TA01 F150)
and many more

I have a couple in paieces and one runner.

They are among the first if not first 190mm touring cars and basically a heavily altered version of the old 870C
