I've got 6 kids so you know they'll want to play in there this winter.

Anyone have experience using other surface types that could be more versatile? The concrete that's in there is commercial grade but really smooth. I ran a rally rc car on it the other day and it was just like a drift car.

This is mostly just for me but I plan on having a couple races a year with the local on road guys. I want to primarily run my T4s and Roche F1s, all tenth scale of course.

Thanks in advance!!
there’s nothing wrong with smooth concrete we race in smooth concrete coated with asphalt sealer and the traction is great ! We also spray it with a mix of alcohol and vht. Tire wear is excellent .
