On December 2, Las Vegas-area Albertsons grocery bagger and cart chaser James Raschko posted the following message to Facebook, confirming a switch from TLR to Kyosho for next season.

I'm proud to announce that I will be representing Kyosho for 2015! Thanks to Joe Pillars for this opportunity! — [PHOTO] feeling excited.

Once a connection on the social media site mentioned that his existing profile photo still showed the driver, who according to his Facebook profile is 22 years old, in a shirt sporting his previous sponsor Raschko posted the above photo, clearly taken in the bathroom mirror of his home.

After several podium finishes at major regional events, Raschko broke through earlier this year with the Stock Buggy class win at the Surf City Classic

The switch takes Raschko back to Kyosho vehicles, having run them prior to the TLR switch. This photo shows his short course truck in action at the 2012 Cactus Classic.
