That is a nice rig you have there. The first thing you need to do is get that thing low to the ground if you want to go fast. You have a very sound looking chassis setup, and that cage is very nice also, but for high speeds you are much too high. Can you find some low profile road tires for that thing? There is no way you are going to go much more than 35 to 40 with those dozer tires on there. If you could hook up something like the Proline Roadrage tires on Axial beadlock rims, and get them balanced you might be able to get some really good speed runs out of that Bolido. how do you like the motor? I have a low and stretched out Maxx truck that I want to put a Bolido into for some high speed fun. Were there any heat issues running that setup? If not then you can always gear up for more, but your wheels are going to be a problem the way you have it now. Good luck.
