   MARC WINS AT REEDY RACE! 4 TRF415MSX IN THE TOP 10

Tamiya and Marc Rheinard Win 2006 Reedy Touring Car Race!
4 in the Top 10 Driving the TRF-415MSX





Driving his signature TRF415MSX, Tamiya Racing Factory (TRF) member and current World Champion driver Marc Rheinard took victory in the Invitational Class of the 2006 Reedy Touring Car Race. The event was held from May 25th to 28th at the Tamiya America R&D Test Facility in Aliso Viejo, California.

This event hosted 28 Invitational Class drivers, 100 Open Spec. drivers and 70 Modified Class drivers, for one of the major R/C racing events of the year. The Reedy Race is composed of 8 Rounds with 4 Heats of 7 drivers each, with the lineup of drivers changing each round. The winner is decided according to a points system, with the 2 worst finishes out of 8 races thrown out. Marc was in great form, with five 1st place finishes and two 2nd place finishes. Atsushi Hara also finished 1st in five races, but his second best finish was 3rd place, leaving Marc the undisputed champion.

In addition to Marc's 1st place victory, three other Tamiya TRF415MSX drivers finished in the top 10, with Josh Numan, Hupo Hoenigl and Rick Howart claiming 3rd, 4th and 9th places respectively.

These great results are reason to celebrate, and with only 1 month to go until the IFMAR R/C World Championships, we are anticipating further victories in the near future from Team TRF and the TRF415MSX. The results truly speak for themselves; if you want to be a winner, you want Tamiya!
