Yes, the Silver sharpie paint pen works. It can be found at any craft shop. Don't get the oil based one, it won't come off easily.

What's the purpose of the marking? Do you guys have multiple shocks setup with different pistons and oil weights that you swap out?

I mark my shock collars and on shocks it reminds you what fluids are in them

I do the same thing with my shock caps, use a silver sharpie so I never have questions on what oil I was running. Prevents me from having to sift through setup sheets.

Yes, obviously many development parts and concepts of various levels of completion were being tested at DNC as mentioned by Tekno to liverc, specifically for the rough and low traction track conditions. I was there and will say that some were concepts they wanted to try and will likely turn into something different in the future, and some of them will be refined before being released.

How, what, or when anything particular may get released...only Danny and the Tekno employees may know. It is important to realize that just because it works in one situation doesn't mean it will work in others, and Tekno knows this. That's why Tekno will make sure things work in predictable ways or provide the correct options before releasing anything, and one reason why I love them as a company compared to some others that would just rush to ship something quick.

VERY WELL said! TEKNO and the team go lots of extra miles to make their
vehicles that much better!

No doubt Marc. Daniel Lewis is the modern day Gil Losi Jr. with his innovation and passion for R/C race cars. Always something new around the corner every quarter that builds on an already great platform. Looking forward to next set of updates.

same here. In general I have been known to buy and sell vehicles a lot, but my tekno's have pretty much stuck around especially after the first conversions i had from them.

Looking forward to what comes in the future.

Man... there has been an explosion of new tekno drivers as of this weekend! I'd say about 12 out of 19 in ebuggy were eb48s. Incredible.

+1, I have been seeing the same thing... actually, I'm one of the convertees as I've made the switch to Tekno this year. Started with the SCT410, then the buggy (which for me is super smooth) and on the way this week comes the ET48.

Dude.. Cant wait to get outside.. Not to mention, if we get screwed over, we can always make the trek out to McCulloughs! They run truggy's and buggys indoor!!

(sorrry, off topic.. )
