Status: offline 		Here's a pic + vid today's dragrace. My truck had no traction again, so I didn't do any real runs. Someone else at the track wanted to try my lithiums with his brushed dragger. It went 49mph, but it did get faster with every run as the batteries warmed up.

your name came up a few times at the dragrace. All good stuff though.

Here's another vid of that day.

Status: offline 		What lithium cells are you running? Thats weird, or he has a low kv motor, Ive gotten my tc4 with 7700kv mamba and IB4200 nimh pack up to a gps confirmed 47. I got a 3c 6000mah lipo with a 5700kv motor that probably is good for high 60's. Is there a 4wd 1/10 street car class? Im so down with my setup.

Status: offline 		I'm running A123 M1 cells and they were used on a brushed motor.

I use my Rustler for the dragrace. You can enter the bracket or unlimited class if you attend a official race.

Status: offline 		The 5700 cm36 motor on 3s lipo is faster than a cm36 7700 on 6 cells. It is all in the math. 5700 revolutions per volt X 11.1 volts equals about 63K revolutions max. 7700 revolutions and the best of 6 cell packs is going to net about 60K. That 3K advantage makes all the difference.
