Just think this way. In the long run you will actually be cheaper than the guys who are still using nitro.

Good job!

About the calc issue: Did you account for tire ballooning? Also, I tried to account for an average of many body styles (aerodynamics) , but maybe was a tad overzealous.

JERRY2KONE 04.22.2008 03:57 PM

Considering.

Considering that a lot of seasoned guys have tried to achieve what you have just done and spent two or three thousand $$$$$ or even more trying to get near what you just did, less than $1000 is not a bad deal. Way to go jemaxx.

Thanks....

I think the main thing that has been so hard is just keeping the truck on the ground and going straight.

I couldn't really tell on the tire ballooning part since they don't seem to swell to bad, but nonetheless they do though.

This is such BS! You can clearly see a sneaky swap out for a nitro XTM at the start of each pass!!!!!

:lol:

Just kidding.. Very nice work!

jzemaxx 04.22.2008 06:43 PM

:lol: I'm a poor guy. My daughter has all the money :lol:. I haven't seen 60mph yet, so my set up is not as good as yours. Great job on setting that new record. Get a radar gun and get some reading with that too in front of the camera. I think most people would honor a record with a radar gun.

aqwut 04.22.2008 07:27 PM

First of all, Great job JzeM... Great video, but ur camera man sucks... LOL
Great commentary!... hahaah
Can't say my setups are better than yours, I haven't even seen 10MPH yet either.... no GPS, no Radar gun... Gotta get me a GPS... a buddy of mine have a radar guns.. I'm still working on some high speed stuff, but I'll be using Monster trucks tires...:intello:

That's awesome man... and those runs were with the 12S100A ESC right?..

MTBikerTim 04.22.2008 08:34 PM

Once my savage is finished and I have a bit of cash I think I'll buy the eagle tree gps. A tad expensive but it's small and I won't get hit.

Great video though. That is impressively fast.
