INTRODUCTION
The Company
T-Bone Racing - was founded in 2004 by Rich Grafton, an avid RC car enthusiast who enjoyed racing RC cars with friends and family on there yard track.
It occurred to Rich that more time was spent replacing broken parts than time spent racing the models.
There had to be a better way to protect the models, he decided to make a bumper.
Rich's background in welding and fabrication was an asset in developing a bumper for a Losi RC model.
After running the model for a period of time and testing, the front end failures of the past were history.
He built another bumper for one of his other models, eventually he had fabricated and outfitted his entire fleet with bumpers.
The next idea that popped into his head was to sell one of his bumpers on e-bay, before long he realized the demand for bumpers and the protection they provided was a void that the RC hobby needed filled.
He went on to build several bumpers for different models and that is how the company T-Bone Racing came to be.
The goal at T-Bone Racing is to provide the best protection products for RC enthusiasts around the world.
T-Bone Racing manufacturers aftermarket products including bumpers, wheelie bars, and skids.
Their quality products are cut out with waterjet machines and finished by hand, designed to increase your run time and reduce failures.
