How are you getting full size motor in a Micro anyway?

Hey, I think you slobbered up the soldering iron. HAHAHA that was funny....

I think franko has settled in now.

Video is one thing, a little speed checker on the car is another. But you just cant argue with the math.

And that calculation does not include, oh lets see, the rolling resistance of the tires (cause they are 1/18 and small) and, uh, wind resistance (yeah, even though its a micro, after 35 mph wind resistance becomes expotential) Or the ability of the small batteries to maintain any significant power output with a motor like that.

Hey, maybe he's got the thing set to Killometers per hour. That might explain it!!
