IFMAR World Champion Manufacturer Stats

With the 1:12 World Championships in Florida last week marking the conclusion of another season of World Championships for RC racing’s World Governing Body IFMAR, they have issued an updated list of World Champion Manufacturer stats.  With 2023 the 46th year of the federation, which ran its first World Championship in 1977, it is the manufacturer that won that 1:8 Onroad title that holds the honour of the most winning manufacturer in the sport.  Thanks to Davide Ongaro kicking of this year’s World Championship calendar with victory at the 1:10 4WD Offroad World Championship at Hobby Action in Arizona, Team Associated have amassed 32 World titles.  That impressive achievement gives them double the titles of joint second placed Japanese companies Yokomo and Kyosho.  Interestingly this year two new names were added bring the list to 30 manufacturers past and present.  Thanks to Toni Gruber’s win at the 1:8 GT Worlds in Australia,  Hong Nor is now a World Champion manufacturer.  Although a well established electric onroad manufacturer for over a decade,  Awesomatix claimed its first World title in Florida with their own team manager ‘Mad Max’ Machler lifting the 1:12 Spec World title at Beachline Raceway making the newest World Champion manufacturer.
