Hyper 9 is off it's LEASH!
 Team OFNA & HoBao's Jeremy Kortz was out testing the new Hyper 9 Pro for the first time yesterday. Jeremy was flying with the new buggy, which looked really good. Here is what he had to say after his first few hours with the buggy. "It jumps effortlessly. It feels light, and balanced. This is definitely what I have looked for. I know I'll go faster with the Hyper 9 Pro. Once I get some more time with set-up and get used to the car it will be really good.
With this great first run, the Team is planning to run the Hyper 9 Pro at the Nationals on June 4th and July 16th at the Pre-Worlds 2 in N.C.!

Hyper 8.5 & ST Dominates 2008 Nordic XRay Challenge
 A fantastic weekend for Christoffer Svensson, dominating the whole race from start to finish. 2x TQ, 2x pole position and wins in both buggy and truggy was the order of the day. In the buggy main, starting as car 1 Svensson lead, was 2nd on the 2nd lap, then then grabbed the lead and drove away.
In truggy Svensson started out front but was passed by Hazlewood, they played cat and mouse for a while, but fast consistent driving and good pitstops gifted Svensson the lead on lap 16, Hazlewood had 2nd place wrapped up until lap 38 where center diff issues (melted!) forced him to retire. neobuggy.com

A FINAL - Buggy
The buggy A final began on what was now a very rutted track, maximum concentration was required to drive this now very challenging track. Losi driver Simon Willetts held the lead for the most of the race until a steering servo let go on him on lap 23, allowing Hyper driver Graham Alsop to take the lead, which Graham held to the end.

Picco .12 Wins the 2008 Worlds Warm-up
 Daniele Ielasi won the World Championship 2008 1/10th On-Road Sedan - Warm Up powered by a Picco .12 EVO 2 Red-Dot engine. In the U.S. market, Picco Red-Dot is winning many of the major and local races. With a street price of only $180.00 USD why would you pay more; like $250.00+ for any .12 from RB or JP or NR or GRP? They are not any faster!
Great Job,Daniele!

New Cordless Soldering for OFNA
 Here’s a tool that everyone will want in their toolbox; it’s an ARIES cordless, butane-powered soldering iron that’s distributed by OFNA. Because it’s butane-powered, you can use it on the road or at the track, and you don’t have to plug it into an AC outlet. Butane fuel is available at most supermarkets, smoke shops and hardware stores, so you’ll have no problems finding fuel for it, and it’s small size allows it to fit in even the most crowded toolbox. The soldering iron features a replaceable tip, an on/off switch, temperature control switch, and a child-proof switch, so the little ones won’t accidentally turn it on. It weighs only 78g, has an operating temperature of 450-degrees, and it holds enough fuel for 30 minutes of operation. It also has a built-in stand to keep the tip from burning your pit table or any surface it’s balanced on. ARIES Cordless Multi-Function Soldering Iron – Item no. 90601; $33.95

New JL Tool from OFNA
 JLR Tune Stop Tuning Screwdriver #10790 from OFNA. Now here’s a tuning screwdriver with a twist. It has an adjustable length, which means you can pull out the screwdriver tip to the length that you desire to suite your nitro car or truck’s body width – perfect for reaching that hard-to-reach low-end needle-valve.
The screwdriver tip can be collapsed to fit in tight toolbox trays, and your pocket! If that isn’t cool enough, it also has a CNC machined handle with a knurled grip and the JLR Racing logo printed on the side.
Now here’s the kicker; it has a rubber end cap that’s actually designed as an engine stopper. Just place the rubber end cap against you nitro vehicle’s Flywheel or exhaust tip and the engine stops immediately. Pretty trick!
