RC Street Wars
RC Street Wars is a place to share ideas and to organize events for RC car street racing.
The Idea is to run RC races in a similar fashion to real street racing. Domestics vs Imports RC Racing
RC cars that look & are modeled after real street race cars.

Race recap, Warner Robins June 27 2026 Good, Bad and Ugly!
I first want to acknowledge the tremendous effort by our team, Dynomite Dave Pittman, Joe Clopton, & Old Man Bob.
These guys were awesome!
2nd, Running prep limited or otherwise is totally new to us, and we have discovered what made us Great No Prep, Dry tire, Dry track, works against us running on a sprayed track with prep (limited PjH)
We had performance but it was tricky, the cars were a handful. By the time we identified our issues we were too deep into the race. The team did an amazing job adapting, I personally was the guinea pig, experimenting and passing down what I learned positive or negative to the rest of the team, and it showed with the team advancing and going through rounds as the race progressed.
As a team leader is my responsibility to bear the burden of the experiment and give the best to the team members.
But without a doubt, we discovered what made us great. Our greatest strength was our weakness in this type of format.
So with this, we’re going to introduce a new car 2.0
The new car will have two set ups, one for no prep dry tire, and the other one will be optimized to take advantage of classes that run on prep.
I want to personally congratulate Jeremiah Sweetwood on his Dominance in Outlaw Running the RC Street Wars Voodoo tires that bear his name.
&
Paul Broadway on his limited prep class win 🏆 He was the class of the field, hands-down!
A good friend of mine reminded me…
“You cannot race a Donkey, but you can tame a Thoroughbred!”
Well, enough talking back to the lab.

GRATEFUL. HUMBLED. LOCKED IN.
Lately it's been nonstop here at RC Street Wars... boxes coming in, wheels getting prepped, tires getting dialed... and I just had to take a moment to say THANK YOU.
To the hundreds of customers who have trusted us with your builds...
To the racers chasing their first win...
And to the top-level competitors who rely on us to stay at the front...
We see you. And we don't take that trust lightly.
⸻
What a lot of people don't see is what goes into every single Ready-To-Race Voodoo Tire Package.
This isn't just mounting a tire on a wheel.
This is:
Careful pair matching for consistency
Precision mounting & alignment to eliminate runout
Controlled break-in process
Detailed balancing & inspection
Proven conditioning process so they're ready Day 1
Every step matters. Every detail matters.
Because at this level... small differences win races.
⸻
Our goal has always been simple:
Deliver a tire package that you can bolt on and go rounds with
Take the guesswork out and replace it with proven performance
Give every racer-no matter the level-a real shot at winning
And the results speak for themselves.
⸻
From local tracks to the biggest stages...
From first passes to record-setting runs...
You guys are making it happen.
And we're honored to be a part of it.
⸻
We're going to keep pushing.
Keep refining.
Keep delivering the absolute best we can.
Because that's what you deserve.
⸻
From the bottom of my heart-
Thank you for the support. Thank you for the trust.
Let's go Fast!
