I didnt say Ty wasn't dominant. I said he didn't win by two laps, (which is true, if I cross the line 1 second before you, and make the next lap, do I win by a lap? Well you can argue that point but not when saying someone is one lap faster. And Ronnefalk actually looked like he had him beat at NC, but he flamed out multiple times. So he isn't unbeatable. Did he dominate? Yes. Is he unbeatable? No. Is he World Champion? Yes. Is he the best driver in the world? One of them.
Let's stick to reality.

May want to pick a race that Ty's not good at to question how dominant he was in 14'.
2014 Dirt- Ty was in first all but laps 6 thru 12 out of 60 laps made in Buggy. That's a 90% lead by my math. Ronnefalk was impressive coming in 4th with the engine issues. Lead All 62 laps in truggy. Wow
Ifmar worlds posted results:
1 Tessmann, Ty 2 94 52:34.122 37.183 9998
2 Cavalieri, Ryan 5 92 52:02.555 37.757 9998
3 Wernimont, Carson 7 92 52:06.669 37.597 4.114 9998
You were there and would know if a timing error had occurred. He still lapped the field. He and Maifield made a mistake. One vehicle survived, which is racing

But Ty kept his car together and didn't have problems and came out with the wins in all of those cases. But to say nobody has a chance of beating him is definitely not true.

Has he ever had problems himself. His equipment appears to always run flawlessly.

I've not really seen him have any issues tbh and I know people say his kit runs without issue but I think a bit of luck comes into it, I'm not saying he isn't brilliant at what he does but a little luck can go a long way ,I mean as cody king said at the 2014 worlds "everything has to be right to win the worlds".
Now with that said I think if lee martin hadn't of broke in that semi, hara hadn't as he puts it "forgot how to drive" and maifield didn't have any problems it could of been a very different race,whether ty still would of won who knows.

I don't believe in luck. It is either meant to be or it isn't. Being well prepared is a big part of success.

The best drivers always seem to be the most prepared and have the most "luck"
National and World Champions may not always have the fastest lap of an event, but running a consistently quick and relatively error-free pace for a 45 or 60 minute event really takes something altogether different. This is what makes 1/8 Nitro Offroad the best thing going in RC. Speed and quickness are important no doubt, but it is how a driver and team manage the other factors that wins you championships.

Ty Tessmann
JQ you are funny and a straight up hater. I'm tied of reading about you chiming in on the Ty's accomplishments in a negative light. The fact is that in the history books he is the best Rc 1/8 buggy driver in the world for the next two years. End of discussion. Who cares what happen at the others races, in which he coincidentally wins 95% of the time which is amazing in itself. I'm tired of everyone digging in the "what if barrow" when it comes to this guy. Sure someone maybe faster but you have to finish the race to win. Dakota this Mayfield that, sure these guys have the speed to beat him but they haven't.
JQ since you like facts here are a few. At the worlds Ty falls to 10th place on the first lap. By first pitstop hes up to second place. He didnt just catch larry the weekend race warrior, he caught the worlds fastest racers. Is that not impressive enough? Also neither you nor any of your sponsored team drivers or anyone in the world that owns a JQ can beat him. Now thats a fact for yo a$$!!...
Now I support all racers and all brands but Ty is a bad boy. He and his dad/mom are in a league of there own. Hes not invincible and he can be beat at any given race but until the said names consistently beat him and only then can we say hes not the most dominant racer. Until then STFU!!!!!!!!!

The World Championship is held in order to decide who is the best driver in the world.
Ty Tessmann, by virtue of being world champion, IS the best driver in the world.
You however, rank highly for best internet troller, I'm a bit jealous, I did my best, but I am unable to compete. I bow down to your immense trolling skills, there's simply no match for you in terms of being a massive troll.

If he wanted to sponsor me I'd probably listen to his suggestions.
I'll be F5'ing my inbox tab.
I currently run HB and Torrance Deguzman has been very nice to me.
But I'm not sponsored by them, so if I wanted to buy a new car, I'd basicly have to go online and pay full price for it.
I'm going to all sorts of faraway places to race this year. Phoenix AZ, Herts UK, Italy..
Costs add up. So if someone wanted to give me a couple of car kits my ears are open to that.

Man...a heated debate about Canadians and Hockey wasn't mentioned yet.
2014 was Ty's year, almost everything went well to him. DNC/Neo/Worlds... His team and ride had to be like clockwork. Congratulations to him and his parents.
Now the other top racers have to look back at what can be improved: change the engine...chassis...becoming a better driver...better strategy...whatever to stay in front.
