2000 - 2023 as a Professional RC Car Driver … It has been a great ride, filled with so many good memories. I was able to race and battle with so many #LEGENDS in this industry! From a 13yr old kid that just popped up onto the scene, to now a veteran at 36, I’ve LOVED this journey. Maybe not always enjoyed it, but I worked very hard at my craft, always trying to leave it all out on the race track.

I’ve made my decision that 2023 will be my last year racing as a ”professional driver” and attending all the “big” races. This is a tough decision, a decision I’ve thought about and contemplated for quite a while. I’m fully content with my racing career, and I feel that I have nothing else left to prove, mainly to myself. Mentally I’m not enjoying the mindset you need to have to race competitively at the elite level, and I’m not willing to make that sacrifice anymore. That ultimately is why I’m ready to move on, and how I know the timing is right.

This year will be my Farewell Tour, if you want to call it that. I didn’t want to hold this in, and then announce it at the end of the year. I want to enjoy the races, as they might be the last times I race at these events, and kinda celebrate that. I wanted to let all my friends and my fans know, so we can possibly meet and chat for the first, or last time.

I’m not leaving RC, that is not my plan. I want to continue to grow JTP and the relationships I have with companies that support me. I want to share my knowledge and experience, go to tracks that I’ve not been able to go to, and race smaller race events, that I’ve never been able to attend in the past. I love helping racers and teaching what I’ve learned, and it’s hard to do that when you have to be laser focused on yourself.

Thanks to all my fierce competitors over the 23 years, thanks to all my great fans I have all over the world, thanks to all the friends I’ve made, thanks to all the people that put their trust in me to support my racing career, thanks to my Dad who sacrificed so much to give me an opportunity to have this career, thanks to my family for all the support given and sacrifice made during all the ups and downs, and thanks to the Good Lord Jesus Christ for blessing me with such an incredible opportunity and journey!

See you all at the races soon 🤘🏼

Jared Tebo ROAR Nationals Driver Profile

Thank the RC Gods, the Tekno RC Driver did not retire from professional racing in 2018.

Jared Tebo has rejuvenated his career after joining Tekno RC with a vigor and passion that propelled Tebo to two 10th scale world championships, 2 ⅛ Buggy National titles, 6 Neo Race wins, as well as plethora of other national titles and big race wins. Near the end of 2017 Tebo was burnt out and not happy with his racing, he had stated many times he wished to retire to a normal man's life. Fast forward to silly season 2018 and Tebo left long time chassis sponsor Kyosho for the American company Tekno RC. 2019 saw a complete 180 in the Missouri native and he was winning and enjoying RC again with big wins in 2019 and 2020. Jared Tebo is enjoying RC and life embracing social media and being one of the pro drivers that allows us mere mortals a glimpse into the everyday life of an RC Pro.

2021 has not seen the 34 year old win a nitro buggy race but he has been very consistent at DNC with a 7th then on to PNB where he would get a 4th. At SilverState Tebo was feeling the flow and after winning the truggy main everyone had him picked to win the nitro buggy main. This would not be the case as he would have to settle for a 4th. While these might not be wins they are consistent and Tebo goes to the Nationals in first place of the NNRC Cup Series with 204 points.

What the future has in store for ⅓ of the Great 3. Tebo, Cav and Maifield have raced against each other and elevated RC racing over the last 18 years. Tebo last tasted NATS glory in 2017 in a controversial win at the Stateline RC Raceway. Will Tebo find favor at LCRC and leave there a 3 time National Champion?
