Richard Cree joins Team Durango

Multiple Euros A-Finalist and well respected racer, Richard Cree has signed up to race with Team Durango for 2012. Richard, who works as a design engineer for McLaren F1, transitioned to 1/8th buggy a few years ago from 1/10th off road and this is where he’ll be concentrating his skills as well as contributing his vast knowlege to the development of the DNX408. Richard will also be wheeling the new DEX210 at some select races between his 1/8th commitments. Richard had this to say:

I’m really excited about getting involved with the development of the Team Durango platforms. I feel my blend of professional motorsport experience mixed with my RC experience puts me in a unique position to help the guys in the design team push things forward. My first priority is getting plenty of track time with my new rides to get familiar with the geometry, then we can start working on set ups and future developments.
