JR Mitch has been the definition of longevity. His early racing days date back to 1987 while driving the Tamiya Monster Beetle and competing at the world famous Lake Park track in Lutz, FL. As a young racer JR traveled to many of the most prestigious events in the world representing his sponsors while earning top results in 1/10th off-road, on-road and also in the 1/8th buggy class. Today, JR’s racing takes him to many events as a representative for JConcepts and TLR while still doing what he does best, racing at the top of his game.
“Recently, a lot of the racing has gone to slick type tires and one of my Speed Secrets has to be the use of JConcepts Smoothies. Fresh out of the package, install the Dirt-Tech inserts and you are ready to race on sealed tack, wet or dry conditions which require slick tires. Staying in that segment, light-weight bodies are a must now in competitive indoor racing, the S2 bodies for the TLR bring my vehicles down in weight, it’s a no-brainer. Finish off the ultimate indoor buggy with the Aero front wing sets, either the lower mounted version or tower mounted version gets the job done now at 90% of the races I attend.”
