Something is going on at SDRC Raceway!
First, check the video…
Some people say it’s just Chase Raymond’s amazing whip-skills at play. Others are convinced there’s some sort of magnetic force field buried under the dirt. Or maybe…
Over the last couple of days we have completely transformed our track’s grip! We’ve officially launched into testing a sealed race track surface.
As you all know, we are building a brand-new track layout starting immediately after racing tomorrow night and running through the weekend. But we had to test this sealer on the current track first to grab some baseline data. Safe to say, the results are so massive that we will be sealing the new layout during the packing process so it starts its life off right!
Here is what we are seeing so far:
> Amazingly Consistent Grip – Lock it in around the entire layout.
> A 10-Foot-Wide Racing Line – Seriously! The racing line is massive, meaning passing opportunities and wheel-to-wheel racing just got a huge upgrade.
> Unbelievable Dust Reduction – We only blew off the track between rounds during Wednesday’s program, and honestly, that was mostly just out of habit.
> Drastically Less Watering – We've reduced watering to after the racing is completely done. No more mid-program watering breaks and no more dealing with that inconsistent, changing track feel.
> All-Day, Everyday Grip – You know that perfect, locked-in grip we normally only get during the middle rounds on race nights? Imagine that feel all day, every day.
You must come race with us tomorrow (Friday) night and feel the new grip for yourself before this layout is history!
Massive “Thank You” to Chris, Chase & Levi Raymond, to Matty G, to the fantastic folks at Whip It RC, and to the SDRC crew for making it happen.
