Well after many hours and a lot of swearing i got the 5.5mm rear belt to fit, turns out i needed to replace the pulley and bearings. anyway i decided to make a new battery tray to hold my lipo's more securely and about 30 mins later i had this body shell lipo's fitted in the car (8s) 5.5mm rear belt fitted

cant remember as i got them from my school

i did until my phone died, will try and get another one soon

just got back from testing on 6s and it went very well, only using 1/4 throttle ad was hitting 50mph and the cells were at around 3.6v each as i hadn't charged them yet

yep running a 100ohm resistior

drive belts are pretty strong, its the acceleration that will break them, got some heavy duty ones coming soon anyway. 8s

12s streamliner

all parts have been ordered, 8s run should be in a couple of weeks

used to own a ftx vantage until i tried it on 6s ftx vantage /sirius 4600kv/ motor/ 23 pinion/ 65 spur/ 3s lipo/ tarmac: 60.80 mph vid was using a 3s 2200mah battery, the 60mph run i used a 4400mah batteru but i didn't take a vid of it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3aZ8Wy1Azs8 http://i.imgur.com/IGToYNr.jpg?2

the chassis is my own design I'm only using the front and rear end of the car but most of the front and rear end will be remade to handle the power increase not to mention that the car will be about 3feet long now

on a side note, was talking to BEZ yesterday about what power plant i am running next year and i was originally going to run a 1940 and the MGM 250a-350a esc but i've now decided to run a 2240 which i've been told pulls at least 270a so that sort of ruled the 250a esc out, so that is now going to be replaced with the 400a-500a version. and for people wondering "is this project actually going to take off" and the answer to that is yes, this project is happening I've already started to draw up designs for the pulley and motor mount system along with the new chassis layout which has to accept 8s-14s. obviously this project will start next year the main reason for running this year on 8s in my current car is just to see if the front and rear ends of the car can take the pressure, like the spools, drive shafts and bearings along with the foams.

someone who think it would be funny to run in front of my car or my car breaking lose and swerving or flying up in to the air at 120mph

yes but only just

yes it usually is but this depends if you get hit by customs, i got hit with a

i know they arn't the best photos but im only just starting to get in to photography but i have to tell you its awesome i've already got some ideas of what im going to do next .

Im afraid to say that this project is going to be taking a back seat for the while as i have started my GCSE exams and my course work which will be taking up all of my time which will mean i will have no time for the car, whether i run it at this years event it will be hit and miss but i will try and run but we will have to see what happens.

it's a website

I still think the calculators fine, anyway back on topic I have know sorted out all the electrics I plan to run and I also got an email today from a Lipo company in the USA saying that they can ship lipos to me which is a big plus because I can now get the right voltage and c rating I need, no more turning lipos for Me.

How do you know it's wrong though?
