In this episode, Lefty sits down with three-time European Champion Reno Savoya for a deep and detailed conversation about the brand-new Kyosho MP11 and Kyosho’s renewed push in 1/8 off-road racing.

Reno shares the real story behind the MP11 project — how the design began, why Kyosho chose a ground-up rebuild, and how modern tools like 3D CAD and 3D printing transformed the development process. He also talks about his long career across Europe, Australia, and the United States, his role inside Kyosho’s racing program, and what the MP11 brings to today’s high-speed, high-grip tracks.
