Tyler Jones ROAR Nationals Driver Profile
Tyler Jones has shocked the racing world a few times the most notable was in 2919 when he won the Pro Nitro Buggy Final at a stacked PNB. Jones then left TLR for Nemo USA/Agama in 2020, due to covid the Indiana native did not race much so we can not focus on that year.
In silly season 2020 Jones once again shocked the rc world by joining a stacked Tekno RC team. Also the word on the street was that Tyler would be taking time off school to focus on his racing career.
2021 has been quite the year for The Dark Horse, he has shown he is more than capable of beating the top drivers but DNFs have plagued his results. This saw Jobes with a 10th at DNC, this was not the performance he wanted but the following week Tyler and his fellow teammates were at Thornhill practicing getting ready for the next race. The practice would pay off and see Jones take 2nd at PNB in April behind Tessman with a possible win within his grasp. Going into SilverState Jones was one of the favorite, unfortunately bad qualifying would see him starting on pole of the B main and disaster was imminent. Hark this would not be as Jones dominated the B main leading from start to finish giving him 20 mins practice on a brutal track. The Midwest racer would then unleash the fury in the 45 min A final and make it to the front of the pack to lead the race for 6 laps as well as fight it out with some of the best in swapping positions in the top. Unfortunately for Tyler the racing gremlins struck again and this would cause him a podium or top 3 position. The Dark Horse has definitely come out in 2021 swinging; he is looking to kick ass and take names. Jones is a part of these what we call “veteran” young racers, he doesn't want to be a fanboy he is a champion it is just time to prove it. Can Tyler shed his Dark Horse nickname and be dubbed The Truth by winning the ROAR Nats? Will the gremlins that have kept him off the podium get figured out and will Jones secure his spot on a fully STACKED Tekno RC team? We will all find out next week at the Nationals where dreams can come true or be shattered into millions of pieces…… so tune in next week to find out! |

The NT48 2.0 is the fastest and most durable nitro truggy that Tekno RC has ever produced. The bar was set high with the legendary NT48.3 and its countless victories and podiums across the world. We had our work cut out for us\u2026\r\n\r\nWe knew not to mess with the formula too much, and since the 2.0 platform had already matured, we expected the proven features of the NB and ET48 2.0 would transfer directly to the new truggy. The recent supply chain issues granted us an unexpectedly long testing phase and ensured all of the components were working in harmony.\r\n\r\nThe new NT48 truggy incorporates all of the 2.0 platform\u2019s best features such as quick access diffs, incredibly free suspension, twisted caster front arms, and a decoupled radio tray. After all of the performance features were worked out, we spent some time adding strength in all of the right places. The suspension arms are ridiculously beefy, the driveshafts are thicker, and we decided on a stout 4mm chassis.\r\n\r\nThe chassis components are kept as far forward as possible to aid in steering response and corner rotation. Unless you\u2019ve been under a rock for the last year, you\u2019ve probably noticed that the entire RC racing industry has adopted our fresh approach to truggy body aesthetics. We aren\u2019t afraid to innovate or buck the trends and we\u2019re certainly not going to compromise our performance and durability goals just to fit in.\r\n\r\nAs you\u2019ve already seen, the new truggy has claimed victory or been on the podium at just about every major race this year. What you haven\u2019t seen is how tough it is. Simply put, you\u2019ll be finishing more races, achieving higher finishing positions, and looking good while doing it.","picture":"images\/6250\/conversions\/FC36776E-32FD-4630-9340-1C030FD1AC96-preview.jpg","url":"https:\/\/www.teknorc.com\/shop\/tkr9400-nt48-2-0-4wd-nitro-1-8th-scale-competition-truggy-kit\/","organization_id":64,"user_id":10,"user_is_owner":0,"type_id":"car","year":2021,"created_at":"2021-11-27T13:08:26.000000Z","updated_at":"2021-11-27T13:08:29.000000Z","interactivity_id":null,"status_id":null,"url2":null,"type":{"id":"car","name":"Car","shortname":null,"description":"Car","config":null,"filter":"cars","icon":"directions_car","color":null,"default":0,"disabled":0,"order":1,"type_id":"product","created_at":"2019-10-31T23:45:39.000000Z","updated_at":"2020-10-23T17:47:55.000000Z"}}}, "https://pixits.racing/setups?user_id=950&product_id=1050&userproduct_id=4828", "https://pixits.racing/users?product_id=1050")){kind=link}

We incorporated many of the new features introduced on the NB48 2.0 such as ultra-narrow pivots, long A-arm suspension geometry, super smooth high volume diffs, optimal chassis flex, and easy access diffs. But we didn\u2019t stop there. A new 4mm chassis plate with decoupled components as well as an updated motor mount were developed to produce a slightly wider, weight forward layout that has made for an incredibly well balanced and durable buggy.\r\n\r\nResults from on-track testing have been great with Joe Bornhorst and Jared Tebo on the top of the podium at almost every race they\u2019ve attended. Expect the same amazing rough track handling and corner speed you\u2019ve come to expect from the NB48 2.0 thanks to the long arms, narrow bulkheads and optimized front end. You\u2019ll also be happy to know the EB48 2.0 shares many of the same parts as the NB48 2.0, reducing the number of spares to keep on hand.\r\n\r\nWe want to say a huge thank you to our customers, and team drivers around the world for making the NB48 2.0 such a success, and we are excited to continue that success with the next evolution in the electric 1\/8th scale class \u2013 the Tekno RC EB48 2.0.","picture":"images\/1337\/conversions\/VaAVkgg9Epvtn5elIIFzUjq8AGosgGCGnUnKqHhT-preview.jpg","url":"https:\/\/www.teknorc.com\/shop\/tkr9000-eb48-2-0-1-8th-4wd-competition-electric-buggy-kit\/","organization_id":64,"user_id":135,"user_is_owner":0,"type_id":"car","year":null,"created_at":"2020-10-01T15:42:38.000000Z","updated_at":"2021-09-19T17:05:15.000000Z","interactivity_id":null,"status_id":null,"url2":null,"type":{"id":"car","name":"Car","shortname":null,"description":"Car","config":null,"filter":"cars","icon":"directions_car","color":null,"default":0,"disabled":0,"order":1,"type_id":"product","created_at":"2019-10-31T23:45:39.000000Z","updated_at":"2020-10-23T17:47:55.000000Z"}}}, "https://pixits.racing/setups?user_id=950&product_id=64&userproduct_id=4835", "https://pixits.racing/users?product_id=64")){kind=link}
