i did 80+kph in my Tamiya F-103L Rahal Hogan Lola... ran it on a cycling veledrome near my house... it was scary coz everytime i go around the corners, i was afraid my car might eat the wall...

Did you actually clock this speed.
It sounds a...little bit...eXtreme

Well I had my mate drive past on my street as fast a she could and i drag him up the street and he had one of his freinds in the bak seat watchin my car and he said he got up to 105 before he had to start braking and i was still just pulling away.

since i didnt have a radar gun at my disposal, i got the speed measured by clocking the time it took for me to do a lap of the track flat out. we already got the length of the track measured and did a bit of math... the speed i got from the computation worked out to 81.78kph... i just found the old notebook with the data recorded from that day...

my brother and i had a 10th pan car doing 74 mph down the road by our house. We followed it in a ford explorer, i was driving the ford, and my brother had the radio hanging out the window. lol.

btw - 12 cells and twin 7 turn motors that my brother made a custom motor plate for.

it was awesome.

I had a pan car go faster, but I don't have video or radar of it.

My car goes 68mph. It's a micro with a 540 Epic binary 2 10 turn motor.

I never knew a ford went that fast.

LOL. Yeah she struggled a bit. The pan car waaay out accelerated the Ford.

So whats the factors that keeps a 10 cell pan car from doing 100mph? Is it aero drag, gearing, tires coming apart? It just seems to me that it shouldnt be that hard from a motor/battery standpoint to do 100mph in a straight line.
