1/10 scale cars set to low to the ground to trip the timing gates they use there. That's why they were using the radar gun. It was a challenge for the worlds fastest rc car . Top speed was the only thing that mattered . But accelleration with one of those little bastages is on par with best performing street cars made. 0-60mph in 3 secs in pretty fooking fast

Ya damn skippy , back flips from a dead stop are a common site at rc dragraces . Gotta be gentle with that throttle finger

That didn't even look like an RC drag car....more like a track car.

It's actually a dirt car , which is kinda funny really. All the rail cars and funny cars got there butts handed to them by an off the shelf dirt car, with a brushless motor and lipo batteries

[///M5 2,833]

Batteries? I assumed it was a Nitro beast, that is even more impressive.

Hey you changed your percentages...

[ramos 2]

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Yep , given the equipment going into the current install. And playing with other stuff . Had to back down on the equipment percentage

Click the attached media link. That will give you an idea of kind of accelleration these things have

Yes sir , 11.1 volt 8000mah lipos

[///M5 2,833]

impressive.

I'd imagine you would get better perfomrance from a mid mounted engine and mass loading the front...untill you loose traction.

Though RC is nifty I'll stick with the real thing.

Weight is the devil on these things so mass loading is a no-no. Most of the track cars do put the engines in the middle though, for the dirt 2wd they don't bother though. Even with a 4wd car and a perfect weight balance there is enough power to weight to lift the front wheels...more weight on the front will just slow you down significantly.

You stay up late, like 4am my time.

I'm usually on about the time I go to work which is 8AM here time. Not any more thought. School at 7:00.

[Acidburn 10]

going to do the 2050 miles in 4 days this time

should be much nicer than in 3

Better you than me my brother . Makes my arse cheeks numb just thinking about it

it's not so bad when you switch off every 2-3 hours

doing that solo would be a nightmare though

Yeppers , power to weight ratio is ridiculous.

Fiberglass work is pucking expensive, then agian so is wasteing money on Miami Vice, eating at beefs, and wasteing gas going to a cowfeild with no cows.

I spent all the money I took out of the ATM last night to buy fiberglass stuff on last night.
