Crawler Innovations was the first to combine closed cell and open cell foam into one package. The Lil’ Nova Foams have been around since the beginning and are made from the best compounds available. The Lil’ Nova Dual Stage Foam design is for all high-performance applications where grip and traction are essential. Available in a variety of compounds and sizes, the Lil’ Nova Crawler Foams are the perfect addition for your new tires.

Sold as a pair.
These WIDE Lil Nova inners came about due to customer input and the availability of wider 1.9 bead locks and cans. The inner measures 1.750" width, is Competition Cut, closed cell inner foam, with a Medium conventional or open cell density outer foam. The closed cell inner foam is super dense, water proof, is not temperature sensitive and is extremely durable. The conventional outer foam is not temperature sensitive, but it is not water proof.
The "Comp Cut" inner has three grooves machined into the area where the outer and inner meet. The machined grooves allow for the outer foam to collapse into them resulting in a much more responsive tire.
The 4.75" is the tallest inner in the Lil' Nova Dual Stage foam line and designed for tall 1.9 tires and heavier rc vehicles.
Please watch our video for a complete explanation of the Lil' Nova Foam System.
Approximate size: 5.0" Height x 1.75" Width

I’m definitely no expert. I don’t compete. Just crawling with my friends on weekends. Why do these things work so well? I dunno! It’s like there is magic sprinkled upon the staff at Crawler Innovation and it transforms into these amazing foams. The change in traction and sidehilling is a world of difference over stock foams. Witchcraft I’m sure but I own 4 sets and I’m never disappointed. The wides help fill out bigger tires and help with the look on wider wheels. I can’t wait for their newest upgrade for my next build.

These wider foams are perfect for that sidewall stability that I was looking for. Crawler Innovation foams never disappoint.

I have multiple sets of little nova’s, and double deuces. The comp cut inners, soft outer for the front, and medium outers for the rear, is definitely the way to go, depending on the weight of your truck. Also vent your tires. I love the 1.9” x 4.75” lil nova “wides” , because our favorite tire, is the 1.9” x 4.92” jconcepts rupture (which is not allowed in competition), but they grip where we run, like nothing else. The wide lil novas, makes the tire wider, for better side hilling, and only shorten the outer diameter to 4.75”. With al the crawler innovation foam options, you can “think, dream, create”, your own foams. Watch “Harley designs” YouTube episode 220 of scale news update @ 6 minutes, and 40 seconds in, and you will see another idea CI has given me, that looks extremely interesting…1.9 deuces wild. I’m thinking of rapping those with some soft outers for the front, and medium for the rear. The possibilities are endless

Was looking for a foam to fill up some Goodyear MTRs and these things did just that. Tested them out and saw an instant difference. I can’t go back to anything else now….
