RC Speed Secrets wheelie bar wheels.

2 sizes available 24.95

5x22x9mm- (.87 inches Tall)

6x30x10mm- (1.2 inches Tall)

(inner x outer x Thickness) mm

Made from super hard aerospace polymer, they are like Mini Skate Board Wheels with our oversized best in class Hybrid Ceramic Bearings inside.

We replaced the rim with a large heavy duty hybrid ceramic bearing for maximum spin and bearing durability. Those tiny wheelie bar wheel bearings commonly used just don't hold up to the rpm and 60+ mph crashes in no prep.

Eliminate the issues with foam wheels cracking and chipping and stop chasing rubber bands around the track

Saturday: The race.

Start with a solid tune. On a tricky surface.

Drop the GNSS and enjoy the thrill of guessing.

Gold car doing its thing.

Going rounds with a fast car.

Why does it always look fast when you watch other peoples cars? This is whats good about no prep without timing trees kids!

Made it to the final four and was hungry to I ate a sandwich at the line…. AKA Mark and Tim get put out.

Mark and Tim Grudge race, I was ready then mark did a test pass before we raced… lol

Kelly winner, Chuck second.

So many Fast cars it was amazing.

Thank you to everyone that came out and supported the race and the charity race.

Summary: quicker and faster than I have ever gone on that road.

Lots of chassis and suspension changes, but Reaction time was the key and here is how I do it.

Sundays are made for testing. And lots of folks showed up including Randy Caster of 1Up

Good results and this car is amazing (Fivestar Breakout)
