Tekin Race Report:
 
This past weekend racers headed to Redlands RC Raceway in Redlands, CA for Round 6 of the Top Notch Series. There were approximately 200 entries for this round.

Top racers would include names like Barry Baker, Brent Thielke, Chris Jarosz, Nick Wautlet, Brian McDuffie, Josh Mitchell, David Jenson and most of the Tekno race team.
 
1:8 scale was a flat out blast to run on the small track. The way the track was designed allowed for 1:8 scale cars to clear everything the 1:10 scales could not. Two triples and a huge table top transfer made this class the most entertaining to watch. Sanford TQ'ed the first round of qualifying by a full lap over the competition. "The RX8 ESC and Redline T8 1900 motor in my MP9 allowed me to run a tighter line and still land all of the jumps with ease, while other cars had trouble. My Top 15 lap average was better than the next fastest racer’s single fast lap." said Lucas.  
  
Sanford would take the overall TQ going into the main. In the A main event, the start tone sounded and Sanford never looked back putting in a perfect run, winning by more than a lap over the field. Sanford set the overall fastest lap of the entire night as well, with a 15.6 in his Tekin RX8 ESC Redline T8 1900 powered Kyosho MP9 TKI3 that was absolutely dialed for all three rounds.1:8
