While at the recent Fall Indoor Nationals at RC Excitement in Fitchburg MA, we teamed up with Jason Ruona of JConcepts to talk to the pro drivers at the event to get some insight into their indoor clay setup. First up is Team Associated/Reedy/JConcepts factory driver Steven Hartson and we will follow up later in the week with TLR driver Dustin Evans.
Having featured the Bro Codes tire earlier in the week, JConcepts have today released the new tire. At first glance, Bros can be easily mistaken for the popular Bar Code but the details reveal a major difference. Introducing the first tire born as a Broken-in tread geared toward the finely tuned racer. Broken-in lugs on the leading edge of the entire tread form a finely knit pattern of newly formed low-profile features. On prepared, wet clay surfaces there is a tremendous advantage to starting off on the right tire, tread height, wear and compound. Like the name suggests the Bro (Broken-in) alternating bar design combined with the addition of the Y side bars provide uncompromised support for many conditions. Available in soft (blue), super soft (green) and clay indoor soft (gold).
