Tire Traction Compound
How do racecars roar down the track at such incredible speeds? There is more to their velocity than just putting the pedal to the metal. The build-up of momentum, the unusual power of the specialized engine, and the purpose-built designs of the cars themselves all play huge roles. Some elements have nothing to do with the vehicle itself and everything to do with the track.
Before each contest, tire traction compound is applied to the entirety of the racecourse. This special formula increases the traction of all tires that tread upon it — hence the name. Friction and the other resisting forces that normally inhibit a vehicle's ability to move even faster on the road are severely minimized. The results are the high-speed, high-octane, high-energy races you know and love. Tire traction compound is the secret sauce to racing excitement.
Of course, remote control vehicle racing takes many elements of regular racing and renders them in miniature form. Enthusiasts use special brands of tire traction compound designed specifically for RC tracks, arenas, and regular floors. If you think your racer is fast on its own, wait until you see it zip down a carpet at higher speeds than you thought possible.
