On a serious note, ajg, I hope you realize that we're all making a mockery of you. The more you respond, the more we become amused and add more fuel. In addition, I would imagine that you're on tilt because of these postings. That's not good. We want you to forget about this while you are at school and focus on your studies. That way, you can get a really good job and become one of your LHS's "favorite" customers. Then, you can also have a lot of money and travel. That way, you can show everyone across the country all the tricks! Hell, I'll pay 10 bucks to watch your circus!!

Do you guys really think I care what your saying. It makes me laugh when you guys post.

Well, the third run was 60mph. But it was still glitching. Anyone have any tips to stop the glitching. Also the cameraman missed the car, so no vidoe this time. Of course you going to say your lying or have no proof. But no one cares if you think that, so just don't post it.

They're listed under your signature as "Custom parts" Oh, maybe they're actually "Other Stuff". Or, do you mean "Other Custom Stuff"? It's kind of confusing, so you may want to modify your signature.

What else is in the garage anyways? How about listing your tools and transmitter, lathe, truer, stuff like that? I really envy your collections.

Hey, you might want to add a dust brush to your tool collection. Or, maybe you could borrow one from your racing buddies to dust off your car before you put it on ebay. Just a thought.

Why don't you find someone in your neighbourhood that is not mentally challenged and get him/her to record?

Because a normal person should be able to make a movie that is not shaky and be able to follow a 40mph micro... (or 80mph in your language)

OR...

get a chair, put it on the middle of the road and put your cam on it. drive towards the chair and pass it...

Also, the connectors shipped yesterday, so they'll be here soon.

So basically you took a hacksaw to your TC3 and turned it into a "Custom 1/18 Scale Monster Truck", right?

Ok since were way off subject ill get back at it. The current record is at 111 mph by an electric RC 10L30 from associated. I found this article on wired.com.

_____________________________________
Fastest Radio-Controlled Car: RC 10L30.


At rest, Cliff Lett's "other car" is just a 3-inch-high molded plastic toy. At 111 mph, it's a blur. As head designer at Team Associated, the top manufacturer of radio-controlled vehicles, Lett spent just five days modifying a standard RC10 L3 to nearly double the world record in 2001s. The car features a gear drive, a two-turn brushless motor with 24 sub-C NiCad batteries, and hydraulic shocks - all packed into a one-tenth scale carbon-fiber chassis. Lett's biggest design challenge: keeping the tires on the rims at 15,000 rpm. Now Lett thinks he can hit 130 mph. "You need 1 horsepower to go 100 mph, 2 horsepower to go 110," he says. "It's all about power, and punching a smaller hole in the air."
