Show #341 – This one gets SPICY! 🔥
HotRace Tyres boss Nicola Marrone sits down with Lefty for one of the realest RC conversations of the year. We talk big money tyre R&D, why U.S. vs European carpet is totally different, what it REALLY costs to build a winning slick, new 1/8th indoor tyre tech, silly season drama (Baruffolo & more 👀), AND a heated debate on Spec Tyres vs Open Tyres at Worlds. Plus… is RC a hobby or a legit sport? Nicola doesn’t hold back.
If you love straight talk, inside knowledge, business reality, and passion for RC → this episode is for YOU. 💯
