Tyler Hooks of Dripping Springs, Texas, has agreed to race for Team Losi Racing next year. Hooks was the 2014 RC Pro Series champion in 1/8-scale nitro buggy and truck, as well as 1/8-scale electric buggy, and won both nitro divisions at the Thornhill Cup in April. The 18-year-old first-year student at St. Edwards University made the announcement on Facebook around 5:30 PM CT yesterday.

“Surprise!

I would like to thank Kevin Gahan and Ryan Maifield for the opportunity to run for Horizon and TLR next year and beyond! I can't wait to join the team and represent the USA at the worlds this next year! I would like to also thank Proline Racing and Daniel Adams for the continued support as well as David Joor and Avid racing.

Also huge thanks to Billy Tylaska Hunter Kinsey and Noah Dickerson for getting me back to loving racing and being my continued travel buddies, you guys are awesome! #8realm #22empire”
