Yep, purple stripes as the spec tire I think. I'm pretty sure they are stocking CRC Pro-cuts.

Yes. It also is inline with the Motiv Series so it fits in nicely.

CRC spec tires are in stock...I saw them.


The size and speed of 13.5 on a 1s 1/12 is perfect for WCRC. Not over powering, but fast enough to be fun. The spec tires worked great out of the box on the new black carpet. Just adjust your ride height accordingly.

I don't know about that. I really struggle on carpet and I've only run 1/12th a couple times in my life. I'm hoping that a track closer to me like WCRC will change all of that if I can't get up there enough.

Congrats on reaching a grand opening. Since thread started I've gone from being a non racer, skeptical sbout a group running racing at local store, to actually running a race. And looking forward to next year to do it again.
I hope a effort is made to bring new drivers in. There are a lot out here like myself. Become used to and like driving solo. But need to see what organized RC can look like.

Awesome!

Is it weird that nobody has asked about the off-road track yet? I am interested in trying off-road on an artificial turf track. I have only raced off-road on dirt in the past.
