Hey guys,
I've got a new product coming soon. I've been really happy with the wear on the rear of my chassis since I came out with the skid plate, but the front end is starting to get worn. I've also chewed up a couple of the front bumpers over the last 6 months. So I've designed a SS front skid plate with an integrated bumper. Like the rear skid plate this one will be made from .048" (1.2mm) 304 SS plate. The front skid will extend back over both sets of diff case screws to the point where the chassis is bent for the front kick.
The front skid plates will be $24 each and should be available in about 2 weeks. They will be added to the web store shortly for those of you that would like to pre-order.
Thanks,
Chris

Tekno RC dominates the PRO4 and 1/8th E-Buggy in SoCal's racing scene
The Tekno RC team has had a busy weekend here in southern California attending both Round 6 of the JBRL and Round 4 of the Top Notch Series. Rainman's Hobby and Raceway was host to the JBRL where Tekno driver Barry Baker drove to a well deserved first place finish with his Tekno SCT410. In the 1/8th buggy class Tekno driver Chris Blais had a flawless first place finish with his Tekno EB48. Chris was followed closely by his brother and fellow Tekno driver Nick Blais placing in a respectable 3rd.
The Top Notch series was held at San Diego RC Raceway and had a great turnout. Running his Tekno SCT410, Tekno team driver Josh Bertrand was able to take a strong 1st place finish. In the 1/8 buggy class Josh was able to pull off yet another victory followed by Tekno team manager Matt Wolter in 2nd. Tekno RC looks forward racing to racing with you again soon.

An FYI to anyone interested - Amain has the Kyosho Lt.Blue/Orange springs in stock as of this morning.
I'm still looking for the (TKR5013B) +1.5 rear brace if anyone knows where to find one...
