Hi guys,
Just thought it was also a good time to come in on the conversation as I have been contacted by a few people.
Anyway, just to give a bit of background information from my own
personal point of view:
Firstly, Jon is French, there is no excuse for that!
sorry "Jean" (as you would say in French), you are not forgiven, you owe us UK guys a large BEER as we are working damm hard!
OKay, Jon Buy was correct in his last email in appologising to all you guys, and it shows how easily things can be miss read, so I would like to try and just try to give you all some more confidence as this is the way I see things:
In the past Kyosho have had some great results, and was the very first team that first enspired me to want to be sponsored back then, as they did it in style for sure!
I recently joined Kyosho UK for those who will not know me from my racing days, simply becuase I know there is MASSIVE potential for the brand again here in the UK when it comes down to racing, and I wanted to be part of a growing company that have so much passion and history for Radio Control.
The challenge is set for me, and I hope I can add some value both to the brand and to support the guys back at base.
The UK has a strong future headed by Mike Craddock, Neil Skull and now myself, supported by a whole network of good people back at Kyosho France (FDL) so you really should not worry about availability of Kyosho, as that's our job to help gain your confidence and get it on the shelves. Any extra help would be cool!
Kyosho UK understand their market place right now, and that Kyosho have really great potential to become one of the largest racing brands in the UK again.
It will take time for sure, we are realistic and something that Kyosho UK are already addressing at local and regional level, whilst supporting the local Model Shops in the process.
The building blocks are in place for Kyosho UK, and your feedback is never more appreciated, but for now Mike & I are now slowly creating a new racing image in both gas & electric in the UK, and we continue to take it a step at a time.
Once again, I apologise for the confusion, but I am confident you will see more cars at your local club over the next 12 months, so don't be affriad about supply, just call the UK office or look at the dealer section on www.kyoshoeurope.com for your nearest stockist.
I look forward to seeing some of the old faces around the track again!
PS-I am new to this forum stuff, and I don't have much time to surf, so please don't be offended if you do not get a reply 
PPS-Forget the Lazer, where's my Nacho's team Kyosho! Don't say with the MP9, cos that ain't good enough
Regards
Karl
