Jared Tebo wins Neo 09 race

Less than a week after his big win at the Silver State Team Orion/Kyosho/AKA factory driver Jared Tebo made the long trip over to the UK to compete against Europe’s best at the Neo 09 Race. The race format consisted of five 10-minute qualifiers with the point totals from 3 out of the 5 rounds to be used to seed the drivers into the semi’s. A 20-minute semi would then ran to advance the top drivers into the 45-minute A-Main. Tebo went on to TQ rounds 3, 4, and 5 to set the overall TQ and would then start first on the grid for the 20-minute Semi which he won by 10 seconds over 2nd place. For the 45-Minute A-Main JT would once again start from the pole position and at the start of the tone Jared got a good start and began to gap the field. After the first rounds of pit stops Tebo was still out front and looking good. With 7-minutes left to go in the main, Tebo came in for his last fuel stop and came out with close to an 8 second lead on UK’s Darren Bloomfield and never looked back. Jared went on to win from Losi driver Bloomfield in 2nd and Tamiya driver Ryan Lutz 3rd.
