Naoto Matsukura joins Tamiya Racing Factory

Reigning IFMAR ISTC World Champion and 3-time 1/12th scale World Champion has made the move to Team TRF. The former Yokomo superstar announced his surprise departure from his long time sponsor back in mid December and it seems he has now made the jump to Japanese rivals Tamiya to race alongside good friend and 4 time World Champion Marc Rheinard. With this deal only concerning touring car we still have to see what the 21 year old will race in offroad and 1/12th scale. Watch this space.
