EXO DESIGN Optima Mid 2022 LWB competition conversion kit has joined it's first race last weekend with other modern-day 4WD buggies. This was the only vintage buggy paticipating the event. CEN buggy tires was the only tire that can be used in the weekend. This was the 2nd time that EXO DESIGN Optima Mid 2022 LWB competition conversion kit use CEN buggy tires, and the car was tested with this tire the day before the race for the optimun setup.
Unfortunately the best setup has not been found and there was still room for the improvement. The slipper nut has released as loose as possible. However, the slipper setup is still too tight. The front of the buggy raises dramatically during acceleration. This may be caused by the slipper pad and furthur investigation is needed. This needs to be addressed in the future. Mistakes are also made during the race as well. However, The buggy flip during the race from time to time. The buggy has complete the race and finished at B2.
It's a joy to see such iconic vintage race on today's track. Hope there will be more classic vintage buggy dashingthrough the raceway!
Thank you for watching!

Modern buggies are so damned fugly with that weirdass angular cab-forward frog-looking body design. Older buggies actually look like something that could be driven.

You had no clue about buggy design back then and you still don't. Bill gates has been trying to warn you that you're extremely lowly educated. Manufacturers thought you were fully insane 15 - 20 years ago. You've gotten much worse ever since. I've seen salesmen have mental breakdowns from talking to you customers. You're 40 years behind the rest of us. Be ashamed of your level of knowledge. Shut your bs mouth and start educating yourself.

Hi Mark, I am using the belt cover attached to the original factory of Optima mid 2022 (please refer to the photo in my store). exorcdesign.com/products/lwb003-kyosho-optima-mid-lwb-conversion-kit-for-2022-competition-version It is indeed relatively short. But LWB`s body shell set has a lower cover. And the current venue is very clean. So I think should be no problem! Thank you for watch!

Very exciting film, thanks!! I'm turbo optima mid special lover, so driving the original model still now. Your driving optima mid is really fast, I'm impressed very much. Any way, what wheel is your optima mid wearing? Is that KYOSHO original model for the optima? But that is 2 inch wheel, so I think it does not fit your tire. (Is the tire 2 inch?) Please inform me about your optima mid wearing wheel and tire.
