As we know the most tedious part of nitro racing has always been breaking in a new engine. It takes hours of your time, wastes fuel, and it’s easy to make mistakes. So Tekno RC created a proprietary automated process to ensure each engine is broken-in properly. Not only does an oil bath break-in save you time, but with proper maintenance, your engine will also last longer!
This process previously only available to our team, is now available to you.

HB Racing manager and RC Racing legend Adrien Bertin has confirmed the launch of the Performa Racing brand in the next months.
Hello Adrien, let’s go straight to the point, what is Performa Racing?
Adrien: Hello everybody, I am really pleased to introduce you to the Performa Racing brand. Over the past 2 years we have had great success with HB Racing, and some of our HB team drivers wanted to use a complete Neidhart SA package that included the car & power source. After some talk with Neidhart SA owner Philippe Neidhart, we decided that the Performa concept will work alongside HB Racing. Performa Racing is a new Neidhart SA brand that will be treated with the same philosophy as HB Racing: Offer the best products with no compromise, aimed at the most demanding racers.

The optional HARD radio box makes the car more stable and is suggested for very high temperature conditions and high traction conditions.
The engine was moved more rearwards. CNC-machined from 3mm high-quality Swiss 7075 T6 aluminum, strategically machined in low-stress areas, and then anodized to make it as light as possible without affecting strength or rigidity.
