You are both right. For safeties sake and financial reasons, I will stick with what I have.

Thing is, I converted my Typhon from 3s to 4s. It's a rocket. When I go down my local park, I always get an audience...."That thing really shifts mate" etc. I have watched endless speed runs on YouTube. Now I am obsessed with speed. 🤣 3s to 4s.....Do I go to 6s? why not 8s?🤣😎 0 to 60mph, 2.36 seconds, even on grass. 🤣 I started this obsession when lock down was on as a to get outside, fresh air etc. Now I am even thinking about speed records. 🤣

I glue webbing material inside the tyres to stop them disintegrating.

I am using a Skyrc speed meter. I use two Voltz 2s 3200 mah batteries. The jump in speed from 3s to 4s is incredible. When I hit 80 mph on the road I guess I was using 90% throttle. I lowered the car practically to the ground. Got to say the car is pretty much planted. Tomorrow, weather permitting, I will video a speed run. Just got some new dboots road tyres.😎 In process of tidying up wiring.

I put a hobbywing 4s ESC and a 22t pinion. I got 80 mph on the road with road tyres. If I use two 2s batteries rather than one 4s the car seems more quick.

Charisma do some pretty good kits in your price range. From what I heard, some people think they are better than Tamiya.

I hit 62 mph on a large relatively flat park field. I would love to hit 100 mph on grass, 🤣 My Typhon is really well planted on grass, even at 60. But I have a gut feeling that if I go any further, it will not end well. Any views?

Get yourself a Maverick Quantum R Flux. For about £270, you get a 4s car that will hit 60mph plus. It's also a mint tyre shredding drift car. Ok it's an infraction clone.

My Typhon 4s with added seasoning.
