Here is a vid of my 79 mph pass and a vid of Nic Case's car. I wish my car goes ae straight as his. I know I could get a 100 mph if it did.

At first today didn't go too well, after I geared up to a 30 pinion and 36 tooth spur I made a not very straight pass. I almost went through the lights side ways and managed a another 79mph pass. It was good but I expected more with gearing I was running. I also burned up the esc on that run. I went ahead and soldered some connectors on to my brand new esc and tried it out and it wasn't working properly. So I robed another esc out of my g-4 UE maxx geared down and took it out and tested it and burned it up in less than 5 minutes. That was it, I was done for the day and couldn't beat my 81.75 mph run. But guess what the guy from Florida didn't beat my pass either he only managed a 77mph pass.

I won the open wheel class and also hold the current ISC world record. Not to mention probably the fastest e-maxx based truck ever! I am sure the truck could of gone faster but equipment failure because of extreme gearing. Traction issues when I rolled into the throttle the tires broke loose and the truck pulled hard to the right side causing me to correct all the way down the track were my limiting factors. I actually needed more test time to get it dialed in and I am sure I would of broke a 100mph. Overall I did win and I am very happy about that. I want to thank all of you that supported me in this venture :cheers: . Heres some pics.

Very nice RiverMaxx. Congratulations on your victory. I have to ask are you going to work on your project and go for it again next year? I am sure that if you make some adjustments and improve your overall setup that you can and will break the 100mph mark... I would hate to see you give up after a few setbacks and let some other shmuck do it before you have a chance to really set your beast loose. All in all it seems like you had a good time putting your vehicle together and finally running it in the forum that you built it for. Coodos for your efforts and nice work. Plus your truck is not only fast, but it really does look nice to.
