Key Features
- Next-Generation Tread Pattern — The Hot Lap features an innovative tread design that has been engineered specifically for modern dirt oval racing, delivering superior performance compared to previous tyre generations and setting a new standard for RC buggy rear tyres.
- Deep Geometric Grooved Tread — The carefully designed groove pattern provides increased forward bite for better acceleration and traction, whilst simultaneously delivering a predictable and smooth steering feel that allows drivers to maintain precise control through corners and straightaways.
- Increased Steering Response — The tread geometry has been optimised to enhance steering response, giving drivers the feedback and control they need to execute precise driving lines and make competitive passes on clay track surfaces.
- Great Tread Cleanout — The geometric groove design actively prevents mud and clay from building up in the tread, maintaining consistent grip throughout a race and eliminating the performance degradation that occurs when tread becomes clogged with track material.
- Designed for Consistency — Every aspect of the Hot Lap has been engineered to deliver consistent performance across multiple heat cycles and throughout extended racing sessions, allowing you to focus on driving rather than worrying about variable tyre behaviour.
- Long-Lasting Tyre Wear — The advanced compound and tread design work together to minimise wear whilst maintaining grip, extending the life of your tyres and reducing your overall racing costs without sacrificing on-track performance.
- MC (Clay) Compound — The clay-specific compound is formulated to provide optimal performance on clay track surfaces, with characteristics that differ from the available M4 (Super Soft) alternative to suit your specific track's needs and conditions.
- High-Quality Closed-Cell Foam Inserts Included — Each pair includes professional-grade closed-cell foam inserts that are soft for consistent cushioning, completely reusable for extended use, and waterproof to prevent degradation from moisture exposure during racing or storage.
- Made in the USA — Like all PRO-Line products, these tyres are proudly manufactured in the USA to strict quality standards, ensuring you're purchasing authentic, high-quality racing equipment backed by the company's reputation for excellence.
- Compatible with 2.2 Inch Buggy Wheels — These rear tyres are specifically designed for use with 2.2 inch 1/10 2WD rear buggy wheels, ensuring perfect fitment and optimal performance when matched with compatible wheel sets.
Technical Performance
The PRO-Line Hot Lap MC Rear 2.2 inch Dirt Oval Buggy Tyres represent a significant engineering achievement in RC racing tyre technology. Built to exacting standards and manufactured entirely in the USA since PRO-Line's establishment in 1982, these tyres incorporate advanced materials science and decades of track-tested knowledge. The deep geometric grooved tread pattern is the result of extensive research and development, optimised specifically for clay track conditions where precision, consistency, and grip are paramount. The MC (clay) compound is a soft, grippy formulation that delivers the forward bite necessary for aggressive acceleration whilst maintaining the predictable steering characteristics that allow drivers to carry speed through corners with confidence. The included closed-cell foam inserts are engineered to provide consistent cushioning and support, absorbing impacts from track irregularities whilst maintaining structural integrity across hundreds of laps. These inserts are reusable, allowing racers to maintain performance without wasteful replacement of degraded materials. The waterproof nature of the inserts means they'll remain effective even after exposure to damp conditions or indoor track environments. At 2.2 inches in diameter, these tyres are purpose-built for 1/10 scale 2WD buggy rear wheel applications, fitting seamlessly into competitive racing setups. The tread cleanout capability ensures that performance remains consistent even when racing on heavily worked clay tracks where mud accumulation is a concern. For serious RC dirt oval racers in the UK who demand reliability, consistency, and proven performance, the Hot Lap MC delivers on every metric that matters in competitive racing.

The deep geometric grooved tread pattern provides increased forward bite and enhanced steering response compared to older designs.
- Will these tyres fit my buggy? — These tyres are designed specifically for 2.2 inch 1/10 scale 2WD rear buggy wheels. Verify that your buggy uses compatible rear wheels before purchasing. These are rear tyres only and are not suitable for front wheel mounting.
- How long will these tyres last? — The Hot Lap is engineered for long-lasting tyre wear, with the advanced compound and tread design working together to maintain grip whilst minimising wear.
