The Toyota 88 C-V is an interesting oddity in Japanese Racing history as it only ever ran in 2 races. It was the follow up to the Toyota 88C which was their LeMans car. The kit you have ran in both, one race of the All-Japan Sports Car Prototype Series in 1988 which it didn't finish due to mechanical issues. It also ran the Japanese Round of the World Sports Car Prototype Series in which it was the last place car that was still running at the end. Tamiya also makes the kit of the team car #37 sponsored by Taka-Q (it's a yellow, black and white livery) which only ran the latter race and finished...next to last one spot ahead of it's sister car.
You're welcome Matt!!! You have an awesome channel. Very generous of Jeff to send you those replacement decals. We have a great community. Can't wait to see this one built.
I think it's a Great kit. Protars is not a very good kit. Nice Jeff sent you new decals. I still have my Frog from back in the day. It has a cracked frame. I'll be watching
