Hi,

I finally got the opportunity to drag race my X1-CR. Against nitros too! The venue was Boyz Toyz, a local RC car shop here, where a 40 meter straight track was setup (1:10 equivalent of a quarter mile).

I WHIPPED ASS.

Best time of the day by moi - 3.24 seconds
Best nitro time of the day - 3.62 seconds

And I have some evidence too!

Video High Quality (h.264 MP4, 20 MB)
Video Low Quality (XviD AVI, 20 MB)

All my heats are at the end. I'm the dude in the safari hat!

Those nitros were slow. Man your buggy is nice. Great job on the nitro .

Hi all,

I finally got around to sealing my motor. I made a front cap up of fibreglass which turned out really well. Fits like a glove and only 3 grams. Should hold up to heat too.

Taking a short cut for the motor's rear - just some aluminium tape. Not sure how the contact adhesive will hold up.

I'm hoping to take some nitros on on the track. :)
