R56 MINI Challenge?

Hi guys,

does anybody know if Kyosho (that produced the R53 Challenge) or any other carmodel maker will create an R56 Challenge in scale 1:18 and in that case, when will it be available - I know that the R56 is available as JCW, but it is the Challenge version that I am interested in.

If you know or have heard or suspect anything, please feel free to write a line about it

Kyosho has recently released a beautiful white R53 MINI Challenge model. But I haven't seen an R56 yet.

Thanks - I already have the CR/W R53 Challenge in 1:18, but since I am driving an R56 S and am a good friend of Fredrik Lestrup who races the R56 Challenge in the MINI Challenge in Germany this (and probably next) year I really would like to have an R56 Challenge - If you hear anything about a coming model, please let me know

I reckon Kyosho might do another one. I hope so, it would be awesome as their R53 model is the best Diecast I own.
