Note: Sweep Racing products used to be distributed in the US by other companies. But this is no longer the case. Sweep Racing USA is now the exclusive distributor for all of America continent.
Just a heads up that Sweep Racing will be making an impact in western Canada in the RCPro series in Alberta with the first of four races taking place the 3rd weekend in May. Team Mad Scientist drivers will be there in full force and all of us will be using the Sweep Racing line of tires. I will keep you guys updated as we will be doing our first test sessions next week.
Thanks...........Dwayne Flodell and Team Mad Scientist

It has come to our attention that some hobby shops are buying on clearance through a big distributor non US branded tires and are selling them as Sweep Racing USA products. These tires do not meet the specs we have placed for the US market in 2009. Those tire sets marketed as "pre-mounted" are not pre-glued like our US version of tires. Sets that Sweep Racing USA imported clearly marked "pre-glued" also only the Sweep USA version come with the Dupont nylon wheels called "EXP" those are the visual difference consumers or dealers can find before make the purchase. Best way to ensure you are getting the right product is buy direct from us or from our retailers on the list http://www.sweepracingusa.com/retailers.php
hey guys quick question what mini tires are good for the frontwheel mini coopers on low to med. grip asphalt tracks also what inserts
Guys are running the Sweep tires at the Hobbytown USA in Glen Burnie. The hot combination is 33 fronts and 25 rears. This combination also works for the 4wd mini cars (HPI, Atomic, ABC, etc). The stock inserts work well. Since the tires are premounted but not preglued, you might also want to play with inserts to fine tune if the track is flat or bumpy.
The Glen Burnie parking lot is also a low to med. grip asphalt. Here is a video from the last TCS at Glen Burnie so you can get an idea of the surface.
thanks for the help just trying to setup my mini cooper for our next race. i'll see if my local hobby shop can order me some?
by the way what motors are you guys runinig ??

hey this is brian from desert rc garage we just got our shipment of sweeps 1/8 buggie tires and have been waiting for a chance to test em they look great the desertrcgarge team will be heading to Revelation raceway we will be running them on our buggies while we are there
June 19th was Oahu's Aloha Tower race held at the annual "Build the track event and car show". It's a great opportunity to bring RC out to others and get them interested. The classes were: 17.5 rubber, F-1, mini Cooper, and 18Rs. The track was kinda small but very technical with a short strait. My mini Cooper wore Sweep 33s and my 17.5 sedan wore Sweep real blue 32s. Both my cars were dialed all day with me resetting TQ in each round in F1, Cooper, and 17.5! I took the "W" in those classes as well. My tires performed flawlessly and made reliable traction run after run. I used buggy grip to clean the tires and Sweep outdoor traction additive, dialed! Overall, a great day of racing with Oahu's best drivers at a great event. Big shouts out to Race world Hawaii and Sandy Flemmings Fast Electrics for sponsoring the event and Burt Hooker for putting it all together. Mahalo!
