Toyo racing slicks represent the company's comprehensive range of pure competition tires engineered exclusively for closed-circuit racing where regulations permit slick tire configurations and maximum dry grip takes absolute priority. The Toyo Proxes RS1 serves as the flagship full-slick competition tire providing consistent performance throughout tire life, excellent dry braking characteristics, and durability for closed-course road racing, time attack, track days, and high-performance driving schools. These tires deliver high-grip levels across wide temperature ranges utilizing advanced rayon casing construction providing durability and stability at high speeds, with excellent wear resistance unusual for full racing slicks typically sacrificing longevity for ultimate grip. Toyo manufactures specialized drag racing slicks including the Proxes Drag Slicks available in sizes ideal for Super Comp, Super Gas, and Comp Eliminator applications, designed for consistent elapsed times regardless of track temperature variations.
Toyo racing slicks incorporate sophisticated compound formulations and construction techniques derived from the company's motorsport programs across multiple racing disciplines. The Proxes RS1 full-slick delivers predictable handling and consistent lap times essential for competitive road racing, while drag-specific variants optimize straight-line traction for maximum acceleration. Toyo also manufactures "Free Rolling" tires for drag racing featuring extremely low rolling resistance with weights as low as 10 pounds each, perfect for door slammer applications with 4.3-inch tread width and specially compounded materials minimizing rolling resistance. All Toyo racing slicks are manufactured exclusively for racing purposes with zero street legality, requiring professional tire management including proper warm-up procedures, systematic pressure monitoring, and careful heat cycle tracking. These tires serve competitors from grassroots club racing through professional series seeking proven performance capabilities backed by Toyo's commitment to delivering consistent, predictable characteristics essential for confident racing at the limit across varied competition disciplines and vehicle applications.
