Danny, since the first time I watched you run, you're consistency has really gone up. You're going to be beating some of your sponsored drivers more often than they might like if you keep it up
He's been beating up on some of us for years.

One of the better aspects about Tekno RC is that not all of the team consists of top pro level racers. Some of the team are just really dedicated RC enthusiasts that are constantly testing. Its these guys that will put the parts that are being developed through the real test, through constant abuse (more so than a better driver that rarely crashes can) and scrutiny.

This truck the SCT410 is capable of so much. I ran 4x4 SC a lot back when I First converted a Losi Ten T to an SC truck. I ran that for a while, but I never felt I could get it as dialed in as I could get my 1/8th scale electric cars to be. I was expecting to feel the same way this time around when we started testing the 410, but after a few set up days, I was really surprised at what this truck could do. Like the EB48, it REALLY responds to set-up changes. Meaning it can be dialed in to a larger range of track conditions and driving styles. It feels as good as my 1/8th scale does and I can push it just as hard, which is surprising to me because I never felt that way back when I used to run 4x4 SC.

It is built like a tank as well. All the parts wear is super low and we are hard pressed to break this thing at all. There are some new very special parts on this truck that will also be compatible with the EB48. For some of us, these parts will be the hidden gems we've been waiting for.
