Default Kev Lee takes BRCA Winter Open Championships

Team Tekin sent news of their #1 UK driver - Kevin Lee, who this past weekend took the 4WD title at the BRCA Winter Open Championship. The event saw a great turnout with some top talent. Kevin pushed his Tekin powered Kyosho to take the title.



Tekin:
During the triple A's there were a few controversial moves in the first two mains where even a few penalties were issues really changing things. It came down to the final A and the title was between Kevin Lee, Ellis Stafford and Tom Yardy. In the final main it was a last corner move from Kev Lee that gave him the title with his Tekin Powered Kyosho Lazer FS2 by a mear two hundredths of a second from the X-Factory X-7 prototype of Ellis Stafford in second with Tom Yardy third with his Associated B44.1!

Default Awesome..

It was amazing to watch as all three A finals were closely contested but the last corner move, over the table top in the last final was awesome..

Kev had definately done all the hard work in the second final, taking the lead from about half way through and driving well to take 1st. but he needed the overtake on the final lap of the third final to take the overall win!!

Well done Kev.. Great Result!!
