Sauber C31? Interesting. I expect the Japanese GP version first!

Tamiya USA announces a new 1/12 F1 kit to arrive soon!

The Yardley McLaren M23 1974, I think some of us will be happy with this re-release.

See the link.

Nice to see those Goodyear -decals on the Yardley M23... Let's hope Tamiya's and GY's problems are solved.

Interesting photo of the Yardley -- Goodyears present but no driver name in script on the airbox! Tamiya gets Akron in line only to lose Hailwood and Hobbs!

Outside the airbox, is there any difference between this and the Texaco version?

Rear wing + different minor details. Tamiya added a special small sprue for this version.

The Texaco version reflects the early '74 season car configuration. The Yardley is a late '74 season configuration. This has been discussed in older posts.
