Ryan Lutz Signs for Team Durango
Team Durango has officially announced that Ryan Lutz will join the team for the 2010 IFMAR World Championships to be held in Pattaya, Thailand. Although its been some time since his departure from the Tamiya team, it was perfect timing for Durango to pick up Ryan, who as everyone knows is the fastest turn marshal in US history, but also a top racer and all round nice guy.
The official line from Team Durango said: “We are very pleased and honoured to have him in our small team, we are confident he can showcase Team Durango products at the world champs and when he gets back home in the USA. We’d love to have Ryan as part of Team Durango for years to come, but time was too tight to thrash out a long term deal, so we simply promised Ryan that we will make the best cars we can (and keep the development moving as fast as possible); and his promise to us, is to rip up the track try to win everything he attends. Once we’ve got going then we can talk about longer term deals.”
Interestingly, the press release also said that Ryan would not stick only to nitro, but would also be trying the Durango electric cars too.
