Default Kraijicek's racquet at the 2000 us open

Hello everyone
What racquet was Richard using at the end of the 90's and into the 2000's? It is a thin beam Yonex that was a dark almost candy apple red. I remember play testing it back then and liking it allot. I thought it was the rd tour but I looked up images of that stick and that was not the color Richards was.
Any help? Here is a you tube of him using it against Sampras

Awesome Video, Sampras could turn it on just when he needed it.

I have fond memories of play testing that racket, but I didn't like it enough to switch.
