I think pretty much everyone knew Yoke would be his next move. Good move for both parties.

Default yep

as Jack went there it seemed like a logical direction I think many guessed........ Should boost the Yoko brand massively.

Expected for a while, but still great news for Lee and Yokomo.

interesting to see how CML will deal with a possible increase of yokomo drivers watching lee, as they have two new associated kits to push hard this year. I have nothing against CML but always feel associated gets pushed much harder

to be fair to CML in the old days (gosh im showing my age now ) CML were behind both brands equally

Associated did not make a 4wd car and Yokomo did not make a 2wd car (unless im much mistaken) neither made a touring car at all !!

the brands did not cross over and CML were able to support each equally

as business progressed things have changed and Yokomo especially had become very expensive to import and support

it looks to be great news for all

lots of driver/sponsorship changes should make for a great 2014

regards dave

Maybe he's dealing directly with Yokomo JP or through Yokomo Europe?

CML don't strike me as being interesting in pushing or selling Yokomo 1/10th offroad, only drift cars, which don't conflict with the range from AE.
