Since serving as Vice President, Mike has been responsible for overseeing all day-to-day operations and has been a significant driving force behind Traxxas’ phenomenal growth in recent years.
In a statement, Mike said, “Building R/C cars is all I ever wanted to do professionally. I look forward to building on our reputation for service and integrity. The people of Traxxas are committed to bringing many more revolutionary new products to our industry.”
