New compound of foam from Japan mounted on CRC HR-38 rim. This is the Softer rear compound we are calling "Blu". Nothing like the old "Blue" from many years ago, this is a totally new compound. For many years, 1:12th scale has had basically the same 2 compounds of foam rubber in Japan. However, last year, a new foam compound entered the battle arena and we are calling the newest carpet compound Blu. This is not the older American foam that was labeled Blue, this is a new Japanese compound that we have "borrowed" old nomenclature and call this new product, Blu. This new foam has high grip, long wear but differs slightly from the Pink/Magenta/Purple and the Black/Grey/Yellow/White family that we have used for years.

ALSO NEW... the are mounted on CRC's new compound rim, same awesome design, new super tough nylon rim. Now, we have made it better by changing to a more fleXIble material. Same great design, same mold, new high-tech material to make a more durable, more fleXIble rim that produces more grip. The nylon material is very durable allowing the weekly club racer to have many "board meetings" with little to no damage to the rim. This same material produces more grip allowing the seasoned professional racer to win more races and championships. Get a pair of CRC Pro Cuts on your 1:12th car and feel the difference!
