Hi everyone! We hope you're enjoying the summer thus far and have gotten many laps in - whether that be on carpet, dirt, asphalt... you name it. Things are quiet on the social media side but that doesn't mean we have ever stopped working. Just an update on what's happening over here:

Steve has been "enjoying" the retired life... in the form of some ailments being tuned up, nearly losing his entire life's worth of files/data on his computer (thanks Tommy Neave for saving us), and doing some dirt (and "dirt") racing (IYKYK). Jared has been traveling all over the world in his own game of Where's Waldo, announcing both RC and full-scale race cars. He has also kept the orders in check for the summer months, which have been as busy as we can ever remember. We thank you all for the support even in the carpet "off-season"... which is getting harder and harder to say there even is one anymore!

We are very much looking forward to attending the Firecracker Classic at NORCAR R/C Raceway July 11-12. We are the proud sponsor of the 25.5 Sportsman Truck class this year. PRW will be on site with Steve, Jared, Johnny, and a really solid core of racers from the northeast that frequent NORCAR (in particular: the Rochester NY and Ohio guys/gals). We will be bringing product to put in the W&T hobby shop for sale, so please make sure you check that out and come visit us any time in the pits, or trackside. Even if not to purchase something, just come say hi!

INVENTORY - Post-Firecracker is when we are going to do a huge restock on all of our products. Be prepared for Tekin electronics, BSR tires, JDubz traction compound, Mon-Tech and SuperRad bodies, Elite Speed hop-ups, MOB motors, Nick Bell bearing kits, and so much more. We DO have the new TOUR-approved rubber tires from Excelerate on the way, and they will be put into inventory ASAP upon arrival. Much more to come, we will update you as soon as the items arrive!

The Mail Doesn't Deliver on Sunday, But Flurer Does! TQ/Win in 17.5 Stock @ 2025 TOUR Nationals!

CHESAPEAKE, VA - Coastal RC Speedway was the battle ground this past weekend for the 2025 TOUR Nationals. This was the host location back in 2021, and once again the venue brought in a great crowd and deep competition in all oval classes. The PRW team brought down drivers from the north and also met up with Coastal locals to bring an impressive group to the racetrack to do battle.

1/12 Stock Truck was headed by the boss, Steve Pemberton, along with Plattsburgh, NY native Jason Peryea. The two traded TQ runs with their Chief-12.2 chassis all weekend, with the upper hand going to Peryea in the final round to start on pole. Unfortunately, tough luck in the A-Main for the man we call "Rudy" resulted in a 3rd place finish and Pemberton settling into 2nd place, right where he started. Add in the contributions of Marty Peters, Bugsy Malone and Dan Murn, and PRW chassis made up 5 of the 8 A-finalists. We would like to congratulate our good friend, and coordinator of the Nationals, Zach Lock on the victory!

Northeast racing legend and team driver Marty Peters, always the model of consistency, entered in 13.5 RTT with his 4.8 and submitted a very solid 3rd place finish. 3rd seemed to be his number all weekend, turning in four nearly identical runs to secure the final spot on the podium. Well done, Mart!

Longtime team driver and cornerstone of Walt's Hobby, Todd Ferguson turned in yet another solid campaign in SK-Kar, finishing in 3rd with his SJ-8.2. It wasn't very often Ferguson was found outside the podium this season. Dan Murn also turned in a solid 5th place campaign with his SJ-8 2023-24. Thank you for support and well done, guys!

The man of the weekend was the young man we refer to as "The Killa". Kamron Flurer cemented he was going to be a player in 17.5 Stock from the first time his 4.8 touched the carpet. After running 3rd in both rounds 1 and 2 of qualifying, Flurer clutched up in round 3 to set a new TQ and claim pole spot for the A-Main. The main was simply perfection from tone to tone, as the pack swarmed from behind but ultimately they couldn't catch Kam, who crossed the line in front of our good friend Nick Bell by 0.315 seconds. Flurer's first TOUR National Championship only adds to his very impressive resume on both carpet and dirt oval. The PRW 4.8 collects yet another title. Stock, Modified, Rubber Tire - we've got the answer to your questions. Congrats, Killa!

Thanks to the whole Coastal RC staff for a great event. In the "down" time of the season, we will still be processing/shipping orders and ramping up both our carbon and product inventory for what is certain to be an epic 2025-26 indoor season. We'll see you all there - in the meantime, please consider stopping out to one of Sarge's EastCoast Carpet Oval Series events during the summer!

Valentine, Trapp Sweep Truck Classes at March Madness!

Our dedicated New England PRW team was out in full force this past weekend at RC Madness in Enfield, CT for the March Madness trophy race. As always, they put on a great show and represented very well. Some of the very best people you can spend time with at the races!

21.5 Truck was the largest-attended class, and after 3 razor-close rounds of qualifying, PRW turned in 1-2 runs on the grid, with team driver Nate Harris setting TQ and teammate Mike Valentine close in tow. After a thrilling B-Main race and late pass for the win, Romano "Romo" Conti got the bump and joined that duo in 6th on the A-Main grid. In the main, Valentine pounced on Harris and jumped out to the early lead, one he would not relinquish, turning in a spotless main event and claiming the victory. After getting shuffled out early, Harris would retain a spot on the podium in 3rd, making a great account of himself. Conti ran a very clean and low-stress race to claim 5th. Valentine implemented a fast start and masterful race management to guide his PRW 4.8 to the top of the podium. Congratulations to all!

21.5 Rubber Tire Truck has also picked up steam at Madness, and our man Bill Trapp was up for the challenge. Trapp ran a clean sweep of qualifying and led the A-Main tone-to-tone en route to a well-earned victory. Heather McGrath shadowed Trapp the entire race to claim a hard-fought second after being dealt a tough hand in qualifying, 1.1 seconds behind at the finish. The result: A PRW 1-2 punch! Great job, Bill and Heather!

Quick turnaround from a super fun weekend at Adirondack RC Speedway. We had a great time at the Memorial Race; awesome facility and track, with some of the best people you're ever going to race with. We thank Andy Favreau (owner) and everyone that lent a hand to run a great show, we will certainly be back! And we'll see a lot of you in just a few days!

This week is the USOC right here at PRW, which of course means our whole staff will be helping with track setup, hosting the event, and tearing down. Track setup starts Tuesday evening. We kindly ask if you need to place an order to be shipped, please do that ASAP (end-of-day today would be ideal). Our goal is to have time to prep/pack/ship those orders before we get completely tied up and our inventory/equipment is brought up to the event. Orders submitted after tomorrow will not ship until next week, when we are unpacked from the race and somewhat recovered. Thank you for your understanding on this.

Racers attending the USOC are welcome and encouraged to place orders and select "Local Pickup" at checkout. We would be happy to bring your order to the track for you to retrieve at our on-site hobby shop. Same deal - USOC racers, please place those orders ASAP so we can pull the products and have them ready for you upon your arrival.

We are anticipating another fantastic turnout to end PRW's 4th season of hosting events. We cannot wait to see everyone and can't thank you all enough for continuing to support us!
