About the 1RC Sprint Car

History

Sprint cars originated in the 1930s and 1940s, initially known as “big cars,” bridging the gap between midget cars and the Indy championship trail. As a grassroots motorsport, they gained prominence as a proving ground for Indy Roadsters, especially after the introduction of V8 engines in the late 1950s. Wingless sprint cars, considered the traditional form, showcase the discipline’s rich history. While modern sprint cars have evolved, their dynamics remain closely tied to those of their early predecessors, retaining the excitement and intensity that have made them a motorsport staple.

Timmy Klatte Verified Owner Friday, Jul 4 2025 (3 months ago) 1RC Racing Sprint Car 4.0 1/18 Brushless RTR 2WD Oval Racer (Red) This is one of the coolest r/c cars-ever. The chassis is really detailed and it actually has working suspension that you can make adjustments to.When I received mine, I converted the wing mounts to the asphalt sprint ones and put on the aphalt soft tires which lower the car noticeably-my sprint car likely will never see dirt.So I have a custom one of a kind asphalt sprinter. The other cool thing about these 1/18 scale 1RC cars is that they are all oval track racing cars-and you can easily set up a small oval track wherever there’s room.I prefer to attempt to get a scale 1/4 mile track going-this uses 9 foot long straights and 9 foot radius turns. I use cones to lay out the “infield” and race around that-and it’s harder than it sounds.Asphalt is my choice of racing surface-it’s more authentic and allows a bit of “give” that carpet tracks do not.Highly recommended choice for any r/c enthusiast. 2 customers found this review helpful.
