But you guys are only doing between 50 to 70 on an 1/8th scale track.
If you want to see speed to to the regionals in Virgina this year my whole club is going. Thats fast racing.
75mph!?!?!?!? Are you sure?
75mph is like 110ft per second. So if my math is right (or this computer's math anyway) it would take 1.63 seconds to travel a 180ft straight...and that's assuming it was already doing 75mph at the first inch of the straight. I mean most people will say that a fast 1:8 scale will do about 70mph in 3 seconds. Wow, that Impact should win the Worlds.
