New Kyosho big bore shock absorbers

Kyosho Big Bore shock absorbers

Our mate Phil, over at the Neo Buggy Industries, has the first exclusive shots of the all new big bore shock absorbers for the Kyosho inferno. These shocks have been seen on the cars of Yuichi Kanai and Cody King at this weeks Silver State race, but World Champ Mark Pavidis didnt get a set, and by the looks of them they are in the pre production stage of development. For those techies out there i can inform you that the new shocks have an outside body diameter of 18mm with an inner diameter of 16mm and the pistons currently have 4 holes.

http://www.buggy-sport.info/include.php?path=content/content.php&contentid=6031 reports:

[i]Japanese top driver and Kyosho designer Yuichi Kanai attends the race with some brand new Losi style shocks on his Kyosho MP777WC. Is this the first thing Gil Losi has brought to the team?[/i]

That’s a keen observation!!

Hi Bart

I cant imagine these shocks have anything to do with Gil Losi, considering he wont start with the company until April. And if he has been developing Kyosho parts while working for Losi/Horizon (which is seriously doubt) then im sure Horizon would have something to say about that.
