SRC – Sideways RC Products was started by Vivian Grobler when he started building concourse shells, not been able to find the right parts on the market to be different, he went onto making his own.
After some enquiries from drifters asking about where to get these awesome products, he started selling to some RC Drifters on special request. The demand grew fast and quick so he started a company and that’s SRC- Sideways RC was born. SRC Started 2 years ago, the company was formed in 2016.
