  • Well, this is it. I'm tapping out... 3S run wreck!!!
    Ejected the GPS
    The GPS ejected it's battery.... no clue what it hit (other than the dirt & grass).
    No official run video
    Not sure what the speed was, I do know I hit 59 MPH on the road with the 2S
    I would like to hear what you all think the speed was...
    The car rolled for about @ 100 feet, we counted at least 13 parking spots, each parking spot is 9.5 feet wide.
    It drifted to the right and left the ground before it even hit the dirt.
    Thanks Kevin @MadmustangRC for the help with this video
    Some of you know what I say about speed, for those that don't know...
    Speed can be fun but you break more parts and cost you more money.
    Good Luck to the rest in this challenge, I'm Out!!!

      Thanks Fil, all parts are "off the shelf" stuff, I just wish I had a speed to go with it... Who knows, maybe someday I'll get a wild hair up my ass and try again, just so I know what it can do. However, I have always said, "Speed is fun but you break more parts and that costs you more money". Thanks for letting me try!!!!

      It's like I always say, "Speed is fun but it breaks more parts faster and cost more money". I will run this set up again just to satisfy my own curiosity of how fast it can go (maybe hit a fresh strip on 490) LOL Nothing really broke, the diff covers had cracks from day one (2 years ago) but this is my parking lot touring car chassis and I don't wanna kill it.... As that's what speed does. Thanks for watching man!!!

      No worries Addam, as I always say "speed is fun but stuff breaks faster & costs more money" They were cracked from day one (the front one) I might of had too much grease on the screws. I been eye balling these alloy units for months but at @ $80 bucks.... Hmmm I just don't know...

    • @UncleBobsRC
      @UncleBobsRC  Před rokem

      Thanks Paul!!! Although I do have a few vintage brushed motors and a few low turn ones at that. I also have vintage ESC's with no motor limits and pushing over a 100 amps, I don't have any NiMh packs (I have a 7 cell stick pack for my trucks). As for the body, yeah, it did. It's a Proline Protoform body for touring cars and it's really thin, hence, its very light. The body wasn't meant for such speeds.. Back in the 90's & 2000's they did make "speed" bodies, for about 2 0r 3 years, hitting crazy speeds was a craze. Now getting on about the guys using Amazon "TT-01" chassis cars... Fil stated TAMIYA TT01 or TT02, Those Amazon chassis ARE NOT Tamiya... To me and a lot of other guys, those should be disqualified. If I do another run with this car, it will be for me to just know how fast it could go, and If I did, I might even record it.

    • @UncleBobsRC
      @UncleBobsRC  Před rokem +1

      Was only the diff covers (where the damper stay bolts on) but they cracked when I built the car 2 years ago... Our best guess is, the car was doing 80 something.... An alloy set of covers are @ $80 USD.. A parts tree or 2 is @ 20 bucks....

    Uncle Bob, you had that TT02 burning up the road. I'm sorry to hear that you have to stop at such a promising run. Hopefully you can do it again next time. I pretty sure that pass was over 70mph maybe 75mph the way it flew by before the body caught air and took flight. 😭😭

      No worries guys, it's tough keeping up with all the videos. The diff covers were cracked from day one when I built the car, the crash pulled the damper stay screws through the tops (front diff cover) not out but through the tops. It's an easy fix and I have to other TT02 kits here I could have taken the parts from or, I looked at alloy units bur at @ $80 USD, I'm thinking 2 parts trees is far cheaper. I put that car together from things I had sitting around, the chassis is my touring car racer, motor & esc was just sitting in a bin. the body I bought just for the speed run, it's very thin and light (probably why it parachuted). As for the speed, That's why I asked what everyone though cause to me, it looked like 75 plus mph.
