Some news from the FEMCA 2012 All Asia Championship that took place last month in Thailand… Tekno RC driver John Ho had just received his brand new EB48 a couple days before the event.  It went together smoothly but there wasn’t much time to tune and tweak things before the race.  The venue was the …

The new Tekno RC EB48 1/8th Electric Buggy proved its durability this weekend in a big way.  The MBRC 10 Hour endurance race took place in Meux (Namur) Belgium.  10 teams would take the track for 10 hours and the EB48 would finish 12 laps ahead of 2nd place.  Rain turned the 1000ft+ (330m) track …
