Kyle McBride Confirmed at Team Durango

One of the less surprising signings at Team Durango has been that of Kyle McBride, the teenager from Australia. The online media has been busy with rumours, but today Team Durango confirmed that one of the stars of the 2010 1:8 off-road World Championship in Thailand would be driving for them. Kyle’s talent and ability is obvious after finishing fourth in Pattaya and alongside his dad Scott, Team Durango were keen to get him on board as they believe that he will continue to improve and be one of the very best racers RC off-road has ever seen. Scott McBride sent us a few words about Kyle’s first run with the DNX408. “We hit the track for the first time last Saturday with the new Team Durango DNX408, and all I can say is “wow!” Out-of-the box this car is the best car Kyle has ever driven! We put the Durango through its paces over the course of a four-hour test and the car was faultless. I made two minor changes over the who session – unbelievable. There were a lot of jaws dropping once they realised who was driving this insanely quick DNX408. Kyle was totally over the moon with his new car and can’t wait for the season to start.”
