The rear was planted with that combo and trinity red dot tire sauce. I had to switch to a 12ball ball diff, using kimbrough 48p gears, reamed to fit tamiya Bearings.... I have since learned that my cars can go even faster when I switched from maxamps 20C packs to thunderpower 65C packs.... I have to choose the tracks I run on carefully, so I don't crash.... Blue diamond seems interesting, but that will be for summertime......
Yeah right. You can use all the foam tires you want, sauce them as much as you want, a f103gt will never be even close to driveable with that sort of HP. You *might* be able to make a fast straight line but the car would be an absolute shoebox everywhere else. The only guys who could use that kind of power on a pan car are the Germans/Dutch still running pro10 and they have 235 mm cars, tons of experience and high downforce bodies.
That being said I would love to be proven wrong by a video of yours.
