Anyone want to have a little competition?
 

I think a competition would be a cool thing to do. Maybe have the end date end of Aug or end of year or end of winter?

I was thinking we could see who can make the fastest kit. Maybe a Micro T based vehicle or 1/18th scale. The cost of something this small would be reasonable so we can have more then a few entries.

Just throwing an Idea out there. Is anyone interested in a competition like this?

Define "make the fastest kit"

I was thinking along the lines of who can make the fastest micro t or other small scale vehicle. fastest as in, highest top speed.

I've got some killer ideas for my lil micro t.

Meh, going fast is all we ever do around here.... :lol:

What about a photo competition, based around a theme- thats always been highly popular on BYT, and its something everyone can do & take part in, even with a basic camera.

+1, Photo Contest sounds like a great idea.

I have both a brushless Micro-T and brushless Mini Desert Truck.

Confirming top speed might be tough, I don't have access to a radar gun, and something tells me strapping my Garmin to my Micro might hurt my chances at winning!

I have seen a 50+ mph mini t somwhere bfore.

MicroT forum,check under videos. I seen one a few months ago.

Heh, 50 is normal for an 18th scale owned by me. :lol: My old detta with a Neu went over 50 on 2s and I'm getting another one to run a medusa 3400 on 3-4s. :diablo:

I guess we could just have another project of the year thread at the end of the year thread? I hope this would make it, what I'm planning.

But anyone interested in a crazy project competition? Crazy micro?

I'll make a Micro-T with a lead chassis/wheels and drop it out of a plane so it reaches terminal velocity. Or does it have to stay grounded in this contest? :whistle:

my old mini t clocked in at 114kmh with fairly standard off the self parts......

c4 9200kv quark 33amp pro car esc foam wheels and largest 3 cell lipo i could fit in the carbon chassis rest of the car was all alloy and c/f mip cvds and diff.

normally ended in cartwheels and bent and broken parts =)

W.T.F. that must be impossible to handle? I still know my Vendetta 1:18 which went 70-80 km/h, but everytime I drove I broke a part because it was un-steerable...

+1 on photo contests thingy btw

heres a pic from when i sold it
