If you could invert an Indy car at speed it would hold the road because of this effect. I heard that these cars are a little unstable under 50 mph that is about when the ground effects start to kick in after that it sucks down to the road and is stable as can be. I have a Losi 8ight that will run just like your buggy and it too is stable at around 70 mph, I have not had it to 100mph, but I bet it would be a whole lot different. I'm sure it would not be as stable.

Not true Cmac, I love my Losi 8 for that reason, it is completely stable at all speeds. I've had my losi 8 up to 113 MPH so smooth and stable it's not even funny. Just look at my videos. I have one pass at 106mph and it's a cadillac going down the street. So if you guys have any doughts about the stability of a buggy, i just proved it..

That's good to know that it is possible to maintain stability at that speed. I myself have never driven a rc vehicle at those kind of speed. If I can find the right kind of place I might give it a trying. What kind of gearing, motor,esc,tires etc did you use for that kind of speed?
