68 mph rustler!! - 02.26.2007, 06:12 PM
hey I've been messing around with a new rustler and have the following
mamba max esc
feigao 8s
3s lipo 6k maxamps
rustler geared 28/86 (just for speed runs)
today made a best run of 68.2 mph.. previous best was 64.7mph.. today was tightening the slipped alittle and ran with a body on the truck .. I think the body helps with wind resistance.. now I need more room to run..

Thats awesome getting those speeds. How does the rustler handle those kinds of speed... is it fairly stable?

BTW - What other parts do you have on it, or is it stock?

Damn, that's fast! My Rustler has yet to top 60mph... Right not it can't even be run.

My MT2 ran something like 55.7mph with the body off and ~53mph with the body on. Have you tried it with the body off?

I'm running Road Rage and/or HPI Geolanders on my Rustler and ballooning like crazy at 61 mph.Handleing is out of the question and the slightest ripple on the roadway and I'm airbourne.What tires are you running for those kind of mph's?
