By Speedostar in Tekno

Tekno RC, like all the other US based companies, is celebrating the Thanksgiving and has released a statement that should be read by hobbyshop owners and by everyone involved in the industry.

Tis the season for sales and specials. We often get messages asking about specials or lowered prices on our products during the holiday season. The simple answer is that we don’t have sales or offer discounts on products except for the occasional discontinued item. Some of our retailers may offer our products at a discounted price, but it’s highly unlikely that you’ll see a sale or special promotion on our website.

Follow along as Tekno RC gives some insight on how to build the new racing buggy NB48 2.0 with both photos and videos from Tyler Hooks.

Jared Tebo: “The new NB48 2.0 is a great chassis platform, with a lot of new and exciting design features and concepts. Being new to Tekno, I wasn’t sure what to expect, but from lap 1 in testing, I’ve been very comfortable. The design aspect of this car was to give the driver a much better racing experience on bumpy and challenging track conditions, and that’s exactly what the car gives you.”

Tekno RC has shared more information and features of their new NB48 2.0 1/8th Scale Competition Nitro Buggy. Below some quotes from drivers on their experience with this new buggy: Joe Bornhorst, Jared Tebo and Alex Zanchettin.

Joe Bornhorst:

“The first thing that comes to mind when I think about the 2.0 is drivability. No matter the condition, the 2.0 feels more in the track and more comfortable to drive than any Tekno buggy in the past. We ask a lot out of our cars during races, and now thanks to the new driveline and newly designed differentials, the buggy remains consistent during a race. Also, with all three diffs now being ‘easy access’, it’s a dream to work on. Going to the races recently, my confidence has never been higher, and a big part of that can be attributed to the 2.0.”
