I have no idea on reno. Ive been over there a bunch. But not sure on a big straight. Maybe a parking lot later at night/ early in the morning?



That is such a cool little build. Wish Gmaxx would make a little g3r chassis. Haha
Lol I meant some straightaways here near Roseville!

In the meantime I painted a new body for me and a new one for the lady:



Speed runs tomorrow! Somewhere

Video FINALLY - 10.30.2009, 02:42 PM

Ok my 1st speed run with all the new upgrades. VERY DISAPPOINTED! Obviously my errors:

1- suspension is raised up
2- straightaway not long enough to build speed on a gradual throttle
3- wet pavement in the by the starting point
4- no spoiler/no weight on the front end

The wet pavement did not help at all as I had to feather it past that patch by the starting point or it would get squirrelly. I have my Spektrum SR3520 in there and I've I've been having range issues with it. Today was not an exception. The highest I hit was 64mph before the front end would lift. It's definitely an aerodynamics issue. Hopefully a front spoiler fixes that. Weird, I ran it last night without the body and hit 75mph easily using my stock body. I've been using a small 8oz bar magnet on my previous runs where I've reached 80mph. I guess the weight made a major difference. Now I'm debating weather or not I should just use the weight or use a front spoiler.

As for the power, its there. I hit 64mph at just a little over half throttle. Main reason why it was flipping over was probably because I was trying to throttle too hard before the road ended. Did about 20+ runs and the temps were cool at 130 ESC and 125 motor.

I'll be pretty busy this weekend but I will keep my eyes open for a long straightaway so there will be video updates this weekend. I'm a little disgusted at 64mph Lol

Anyways, here's the big disappointment:

Did you go and try that spot out? I cant really tell from the vid, but it looks pretty decent!

Haha there you go! F1 is fun! Touring is even better though

I'm seriously afraid to go past half throttle. That's when I did the backflip. If I throttled any harder it probably would have done a double standing backflip... or break an axle. I just found my temp gun so I'm gonna find a place to run it and see how the temps are. I might wait until later tonight when it gets below 90 degrees
