Description
The “Å“Web” style tire was built to compete on smooth high-grip indoor and outdoor surfaces which require a finely detailed connected bar pattern. The center section of the tire is a home run utilizing a diamond “Å“home plate” footprint to provide massive forward bite and increased longevity. The web of extensions are unique and have a directional touch, giving the racer the ultimate tune-ability.
The Dirt Web tire was originally released during the 2013 racing season and debuted in spectacular fashion with a win at the CRCRC Midwest Championships. Since that time, the Dirt Webs have been an industry leader for indoor performance and are often chosen as a control tire for performance, reliability, and consistency.
Jason Ruona explains that the Ellipse has a compact carcass, allowing the driver to attack high-speed sections with more comfort. The “Å“home plate” and connected web of tread provide more stability at high speeds and hold the tire together for today’s high-powered vehicles. Connected tread wears significantly better, which is useful for racing indoors where a racer can break-in and race with the same pair all weekend.
The Ellipse has already shown success in the hands of Ryan Maifield, taking TQ and 1st place in the 1/8th buggy class at the 2018 ROAR 1/8th E-Nationals. The exclusive gold compound, which is the compound of choice for most indoor events, has shown to produce consistent results for racers week after week. Each package includes Dirt-Tech closed cell inserts known for their durable nature and gray color, completing the race-tuned package.
