No video of this one Sam.......yet. It's a customers car and I am kind of reluctant to make another pass with it, especially with those numbers on the first pass. Don't want to break it! I May have to build one of these bullets for myself though.........only faster ( maybe in the 0.5's )! Possibly some video later.............

0.617 e.t.........with a 4gear!!!! Do the standard plastic gears survive this? I see ppl using poly motor mags, can they be just as fast as the neos? Edit: forgot to ask what voltage? 24V ? Wondering if when ppl post times they can include distance and volts (plus as many car specs as possible hehe)  |

Most gears are taken out from the violent nature of the stop ( catch ) at the end of the track. I've exploded my share of top plate and crown gears! I don't clean the tires before a run anymore. Surprizingly, most survive. If I went any hotter with the motors, they wouldn't.
20' 7.5" on 24v. 4ohm motor, w/poly mags. and braids.....no shunts.

Thanks Jim - gives me an idea of what to aim at, and (sort of ) how to get there.. My track is also a 1/64 Quarter (20'+), but I painted mine with black chalkboard paint. Yet to see if lack of traction will be an issue, but silly sponge tyres seem to hook up well on the inline chassis. I have a nice big rag sitting on my shutdown area to soften the "catch" |

Are there any build-up posts on the 4 gear chassis?
Thanks
