Adams Racing Limited is a manufacturer of a new unique foam rubber technology that we believe combines the best qualities of foam rubber and solid rubber technology.

Particularly in the high all round grip requirement of Electric RC car racing, especially indoors on carpet, the Gecko foam rubber offers more grip with as a result of constant hardness contact patch and unique new formulations and therefore minimal slide. This results in extremely high grip with minimal wear as the tyres are not rubbing them selves out. Gecko rubber also offers good tear (chuink) resistance and therefore can give wear & life time rates much closer to a solid tyre yet it's grip is even greater than conventional foam tyres.            

With the competitive pricing of the Gecko tyres  - does it ask the question why use solid rubber over this new foam rubber tyre in Electric RC racing. What do you think?
