This bit on Neo may shed some light, this and some other news I have heard makes you wonder a bit what the future holds

Rumour has it that the racing branch of the Horizon Hobby empire, ‘TLR’ is due to reduce in size, with the RC grapevine in overdrive with claims that the ‘Team’ part of ‘TLR’ will be the first to see the changes. The news comes only a week after the Darren Bloomfield’s shock split from the company and we hear that Mike Truhe may be the latest driver to have agreed a deal to drive for another company in addition to rumblings of severely reduced budgets for existing drivers on the team.

It remains to be seen, 2014 looks uncertain for the company that was once riding expertly on the crest of the 1/8 offroad wave, TLR’s 22-4 (4WD 1/10th) is due for release in January but hasn’t quite found favour within the team as of yet and despite Adam Drake’s Nats win this year giving TLR a hat trick of ROAR 1/8 buggy titles it seems the team budget’s belt has tightened.

NeoBuggy contacted TLR for a response but did not receive any comment at time of publishing
