Hi supersonice, the Circuit 20 series are 1:8 scale 2WD Off road buggies, very old (between 1976 and 1984)

hello,

I'm happy to be here, nice place

I think Germany got the following Circuit 20 cars:

A- 20 Baja Body (Sport buggy)
B- Fairlady
C- Rowdy Baja
D- Lancia Stratos
E- Racing Baja

maybe Circuit 20 the holiday buggy and Hilux as a body only.

Hi Frank I think you're right, but there is one more kit or at least a body only released for the Circuit Buggy because there is an German language literature about it :

Frank, the manual pages are very similar to Japanese onces for the Circuit Buggy, which is the first in the series and as per Kyosho history page, the Circuit 20 started on 1976 here what Kyosho say about it:

"1976, CIRCUIT BUGGY. A 1/8 pipe bodied pure racing machine. Included oil-filled shocks. Equipped with the world's first double trailing-arm."

the German manual scan does not have year or any date, but they are a direct translation from the Circuit Buggy manual;













I think at that early time (1976) Graupner was not the agent for Kyosho, and the buggy was sold by importers, what do you think?

Hi,

Some catalog scans;



some optional parts;
