Thanks Linc, you make a good point about the radar. I was hitting almost maxx throttle about where my son was standing (notice the wheelies) about the same spot. I dont believe the radar gun will pick up the speed as the truck goes by it needs to be of the truck coming at it or going away so I am sure the speed were faster because of the angle of the gun compared to the car. I will put the gun lower to the ground and farther down the street in the middle but not with my son holding it I have a small box for that. Any rc car at those speeds can be leathal. The event will have speed trap so those readings should be exact. What sucks is my class will be the 2nd out on the track so I hope they clean the track of all the dust before the run. Jerry my goal/ dream is 100mph. 80+ mph hopefully should be on the next video. I am going to do the practice runs with only 30t pinion/40tspur and at the event I will change the spur to a 38 and then my highest 36. Each one should squeek out a few more mph. I also am going to advance with the timing also. I know castle says it doesn't make a difference but create more heat with a 1515 1.5y 2700 kv motor but taking to Nic Case last week he has convinced me otherwise. I will leave it all black with a few decals. I think it looks very stealth that way. Is it true that heated batts will give better results? I have seen threads on this and was thinking about bringing a heating pad also.
