It was my older cuz's and he basically gave it too me ... Then it broke and we had no idea how/were to get parts so i went to the hobby store and bought a Kyosho raider Pro! chain drive??? - mikeh - 07-12-2006 Kyosho Optima and Optima pro were chain drive. An optional belt was offered but it was not an improvement. Also, the Kyosho Rocky was chain drive as well. The chain worked surprisingly well, and made a very cool metalic sound when driven. My buddy still has his with all the original drivetrain still intact! He never broke the chain or a gear and still drives it now and then. For a while there was a huge resurgence in interest for these cars and the old school stuff was going for big bucks on ebay. People paying like $300 for a good Optima or Rocky Pro. But it seems that ship has sailed. Its tough to have fun with a truck you cant afford to break. chain drive??? - Obsessive R/C - 07-12-2006 I just happened to see this today while looking around... Maybe the pics will help you figure out what you have.
