reminds me of a b4, or is it?

Yes tis indeed a B4 - where's all this Yokomo 2WD rumourism come from? I thought I was the one who made up stuff like this :lol:

rowanp25 03-03-2009 02:55 PM

looks like a b4 to me... maybe a proline shell??

fastinfastout 03-03-2009 03:00 PM

reedy race of champions. Alot of locals using japenese cars...kyosho, yokomo etc, so maybe I thought there was a prototype running. But yeh on 2nd thoughts, just a yok sponsored driver driving a b4 lol

jimmy 03-03-2009 03:21 PM

Is Jorn sponsored by Yokomo for 4WD now? :o

On the picture is a Asso B4 with the JConcepts High Flow Body.
Yokomo is how many people know the Japanese importer of Associated. Because of that drive many Yokomo driver the Asso B4
Sry for my english...

Joern is the new Team Driver!

Last weekend, he would go to a race in Germany (Neuffen).
He was also on the list. But at least, he has cancle the race.

Because Joern was in the Yatabe Arena at the Reedy Race.
He finished in the A-Main as 9! Congratulations to him!

It's right, Asso is supported by Yokomo in Japan. So alot of drivers take the B4.

I understand the AE relationship with Yokomo in Japan but you mean Jorn is racing the BMax now? Big loss for Durango with their new car coming very soon? But I guess Yokomo also lost Neil Cragg which is arguably an even bigger loss.:drool:

MiCk B. 03-03-2009 09:14 PM

Jorn left Durango at the start of this year:

Care to tell more? I have completely missed this news!!!:eh?:

durango top driver? -Martin Achter
I can't imagine there will be more durango driver than one and maybe one or two more for major races.

Neil now runs the B44 alongside the rest of his Associated team mates. Tom Yardy is the only team Yokomo driver in the UK that I know of?

Scouser 03-03-2009 10:56 PM

No-one tells me nuffink!:mad: Pretty surprising considering the length of time he has been with Yokomo and the success he could obviously achieve with the car. Good luck to him though, maybe he did it for the parts compatibility!!:lol:

Every time I see this thread, it makes me smile until I remember that it's just a B4:cry: Nothing against B4s, but I would love a 2wd Yokomo buggy.
