Lars from Norway

Yeah, this looks very nice! Thanks for sharing the video with us Looks like you can gear it a bit higher too?

KENDOG689

Great vid ,love the build.That car has an S-load of push.New sticky tires or wt. on the front will correct it.

Hi, Very nice to show us your car in action, sure the gear need to be higher or do you plan to put your own 2 speed gear box in it.

VassilisG

Thanks mates .

Yes , i must gear it about 20% higher.
I have a problem with understeer , which I'll try to fix next days.

A new vid next week with a better Street Fighter , on the road.

The shape of the truck is nice. it looks like the baja in baja 1000

VassilisG

Udersteer's mother was the caster angle( 17deg ).
New upper front arms and the caster is 5 deg , now.
The gearing takes +20% (longer ) and
I 'm waitting for a sunny and dry day to take a new video.

i like your project it looks great,but did you over look safety?

looks like it would cut through a steel wall the shape of it.... [:-]
it is shaped pure cutting point forward like top of a triangle!!!!

be safe with it please for the sake of you and your friends

i wish you well with it.

VassilisG

Thanks max241 ,

....but I dont run the SF in the crowd or in my house.I think that a simple bread knife , is more dangerous than a car, with wrong use.

Ariel Atom ,with the same shape run on the road with all other cars.
I'm not apprehensive for our safety from cars , bikes , food......... , but only from idiot people,who use all these.


thanks ,again.

Looking really good mate.  Maybe it could benefit from a bit more weight up front to help keep the front wheels planted?  Your weight distribution seems great though; I like that you can give it a flick of the throttle without it spinning out.  Were those tyres brand new when you started?! 

VassilisG

Thanks Paul,

Tyres were used but not with homogeneity wear.

airflowmax

looks amazing!

VassilisG

A new set of arms, 10mm tube than 8mm of the first, much stronger now.
You can see the new arms on the right side and the old arms on the left.

looks like you seem to be a fan of that type of suspension..... does that work out pretty good for you?

Whozenext

look much stronger, wait to see the new video

wyattroa

so sexy...Wish I had the skills and machinery to build something like this.

VassilisG

Thanks mates.



synthetic003 :
Ι think that this is the best typy of suspension. Like F1 cars.

I can unbundle ( ...i dont know if it is the right word) the height of the car from suspension's stiffness.

Vass

synthetic003

do you ever have and issue of "bottoming out" or bending

VassilisG

I cannt understand what exactly you ask for ,.... becouse of my English.

synthetic003

do you have a problem with the bottom of the frame dragging on the ground when you hit bumps.

Έχετε κάποιο πρόβλημα με το κάτω μ�*ρος του πλαισίου τραβήξει σε μάκρος το �*δαφος, όταν εσείς επλήγησαν επίπεδα
Δεν ξ�*ρω αν αυτό είναι σωστό

VassilisG

,
Ha, Ha,Ha,HaHa,Ha,Ha,

Very nice. Thanks for your Greek explanation , which is more abstruse than your words ,in English.

I hanen't any problem with the bottom becouse I have the ..... best suspension.
This sunday my son will run in race (1/5 scale cars) with SF. I'll take a video ,specialy from SF's bottom , for you.

alvinm

Do you use a body or do you race just like that?

VassilisG

........... just like that. Like Ariel Atom, my inspiration.
