RCCA reported a clocked speed of 39 MPH in high gear in their Nov. 2004 issue. I'm sure you can easily squeeze 40+ MPH out of it even with the stock engine and gearing. All of my LST's have become noticably quicker after about a gallon of use on the engine. This seems to be when the Mach 26 really starts to 'wake up' and come to (even though it runs nicely before that point).

Not sure why you think that. It's already got a .26 motor on it and the "427" is not a bigger motor. I imagine that some of the LST "1's" that have had the, say, Collari .32 put on are faster.

For what it's worth, I grew up on the southside. Graduated from Southport. I haven't lived in Indy since '77 though. My family still does so I'm back there 2 -3 times a year.

I live on the west side. On 10th st and 465. O yea, i go to plnet rc every sunday. I dont know how many meters but i would say about 400 feet. The only reason i risked the engines life is that i have a spare. But so far she still runs really Strong.

I still think it can go faster but i would need an airport for that. The engine didnt sound like it was toped out. but it takes it's sweet ***** time to get up to speed. When the cop clocked it, he was joking about giveing me a ticket beause it was in a 35 MPH zone and i was speeding.
