I just got finished reading RC Car Action that showed the 2006 speed event and the fastest truck was a Savage that went 61+ MPH. I guess I have a new record then.
C'mon lutach.. faster, faster, faster.... with those batteries.. you should be pumping out 80MPH with that MT... 10S 4300mah A123 = 5000+ watts.. you should be smokin'.. give me ur batteries, I'll test them for you :)
Well, I wish I had more time. My daughter is autistic and finding a trustworthy person to watch her is difficult. I just ran the numbers real quick. With the set up I had with the 22T pinion and 65T spur, 3.3 diffs, motor running at 38880RPMs and 5.5 diameter tires, it shows a potential top speed of 65MPH and I went 59MPH. Now I'll try it with one 36V pack and a 51T spur. The numbers shows a potential speed of 83MPH. I just hope I can keep the truck under control at the location I'm running at. It is a bit dusty from all the constructions.
