In the early days of EOS, TLR/Horizon Hobby were a main event sponsor, this was prior to "EOS carpet", although I don't think any TLR drivers took a win, though they did fly over some US drivers. Jorn with his Durango's seemed to dominate then.

The last serious TLR drivers I saw running at EOS were Ellis Stafford and Chris Delves with the 3.0 in Jan 2016 at Muelheim Kaerlich: http://eos.redrc.net/2016/01/chassis...llis-stafford/

Short/polite answer is they are now not bothered or can't afford to compete on the European stage with the big guys: Schumacher, Xray AE and Yokomo.
I don't think they have any pro level drivers in Europe, else the would be there?

If you go here: http://eos.redrc.net/gallery/ and scroll down, you can see the galleries of the early events.
