Sweep is awesome at evaluating and implementing info from customer input. Kenny L and John Lee have been FANTASTIC at providing good info and price point, at better than reasonable performance levels.

Great Job guys!!!

Hello

our Company "Sweep Racing" was with MuchMore in Mid 2000's, MM which is distributed by Hobbico (Tower Hobbies) in the America.
we departed that route on May/2009 to create our own distribution network.

the Sweep Racing is Founded by Mr Kong, back in early 2000's who is also a Owner & CEO.
Ryan Lee, who used be an top personnel in MM is now General manager, and charge of global operations of the SR Ind (Sweep Racing)
We also have other few key personnels to make decisions for new projects, which happening almost everyday.

updated home page with all this informations is on it's way to show the world who we are.

please stay tuned.

I waited toward the end of the day when most of the TC drivers had left to start testing to ensure that the grip had built up on the track (indoor asphalt) and also so I could have as close to uninterrupted sessions as possible while testing. I put a total of (7) 6 minute sessions on the tires and they look that same on run 7 as they did on run 2 with NO loss in performance!!! It is a "thing of beauty" at how good they look, the wear pattern is excellent!!! During each run the lap times remained consistent from start to finish and never fell off! This tire is simply amazing and is as fast as the other tires some of the guys have been running at the track. To say that these tires are impressive is truly an understatement!!!
Fred....Thanks for taking the time to do this crucial testing. It's about time! And also a big thanks to John for making the changes from constant team testing to get this tire in contention for Spec Racing and Club Racing. One thing about Sweep is the customer service and attention to detail that will eventually make Sweep Tires the on-road tire of choice. It's not always about the money...it's about providing a good racing tire and making sure the Racer gets what he or she paid for.

Either R40 or new OG_SPEC. for spec type racing.
in case of all out racing, EXP will do it.

Just my perosnal feedback. Hope it helps. I tried a few combinations with the help of this thread. I recently decided to try the exp36 with the lightweight inserts (pre-mounts with the white wheels) at two of the outdoor parking lot tracks (OC Circuit & Charlie's races here in So cal.) I think they are marketed more tword carpet, but they supprised the heck out of me. They worked great with medium tire wear. Using the same set (rotating the tires) Still in good shape with a total of six 5 minute runs (two race days) and some practice time. Outside temp was around 80F both weekends Thank's "Sweep"

2011 Canadian Indoor Nationals were held in Welland Ontario.... In 17.5 Rubber TC I managed to qualify 9th overall, and ended up moving up 3 spots in the Amain to finish 6th running the EXP30 Kitty rug tires and Sweep Racing X2 Carpet Sauce.. In 21.5 VTA (Canadian Specs no Timing) I managed to TQ and win the Amain using the Sweep Racing X2 Indoor Carpet Sauce....
