WOW. Well, change is always good......sometimes.
He's been with Losi since the early 90's. That's a long time to be anywhere in the industry.... Good luck to him where ever he goes. He will be good no matter where.

Good luck to him. He is a good guy and ambassador to R/C and whatever brand he goes with will succeed.

Well that sure is a shake up in the industry. He has been the face for TLR for years. Sure is going to be different seeing them colors on another brand.

seems like a stab in the back,now that they got maifield.. serpent could really use him..not sure mugen wants to spend that kind of $? Adam is one of the best guys at the track to help out a racer..I would really like it if he went to mugen,he has always had a good relationship with Tim Long

Mugen would probably make the most sense seeing as Drake is more of an 1/8 specialist and that's where Mugen makes their money. A diverse product lineup probably isn't as important to someone like him.
