Carpmart Posted September 9, 2015 Author Share Posted September 9, 2015 Only messing. Why do you think i left the leopard at home. not sure the speed trap registers below 35mph lol But im going to have a talk with Mr O and see what he thinks would work best. im thinking 23cc screamer When is he back from his world tour Dave? I think you need Bez to make you a dragster chassis and bolt that 23cc motor to it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pieman5 Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Very useful to know, thanks! Where is that usually held pieman? AJ - get building dude! For all events before its been at the same place however, with tony managing to get a bit of use of the runway at llanbedr, i cant say for sure where and when it will be next year.

Carpmart Posted September 9, 2015 Author Share Posted September 9, 2015 That place is absolutely in the middle of nowhere, looking at the map! Looks s cracking venue though Pieman5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rover Man Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 When is he back from his world tour Dave? I think you need Bez to make you a dragster chassis and bolt that 23cc motor to it! Not sure. He's still in Kuala Lumpur at the world TC championship. Nice work if you can get it lol And i may already have my eye on a lightweight TC chassis for the job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dog slow so would be perfect for an IC conversion...... Edited September 9, 2015 by Carpmart 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mayzie12 Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 (edited) You should get 100mph out of that no bother! I had effectively the same car as your HN SC, just with different shock towers to fit a TC body, and was grand for 100 on 6s. With 8s you should be flying along, as long as Bez allows you the fast gearing OH and make sure he gives you a 100mph warranty this time!

Carpmart Posted September 10, 2015 Author Share Posted September 10, 2015 That's what I'm missing, the warranty! The 62 mph Baja speed was met by complete ambivalence from Bez.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmini Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 Don't worry mate. Next year I'm gonna make the 62mph look slower than it is. Of course I'm not sure how I'm to do that just yet. But we will see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RCbutcher Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 I'll belive the 130mph run as the 90mph run I saw looked pretty much standard with cheap elecs. It must be one of the fastest buggies around. I'll have a look at vorza speed runs Bcos I've always thought that was the only really fast buggy around.

It must be one of the fastest buggies around. I'll have a look at vorza speed runs Bcos I've always thought that was the only really fast buggy around. Given the budget for the electrics and gearing options, pretty much any 1/8 buggy will match the Vorza imo, how reliable it is at that speed (or driveable) is another matter. Bez took the X1 Cr buggy fast, and Wrighty has topped the ton with a Hyper 7. These X3 GT's have a further advantage over the buggies though - the front and rear diff's are 43/14 - so nearer 3 ratio, rather than the 3.3 than an average 1/8 buggy runs.
