Default TNX 5.2 TOP SPEED RUNS
To all TNX 5.2R owners:

I am getting mixed info on the top speed of this new truck. I was told the TNX 5.2R was radar tested and showing 57 mph. I was also told it held that for a few seconds. For comparison the same radar showed 43 mph for the previous generation TNX.

I was told this was done at Tamiya Canada when they initial received a shipment of the trucks.

Is this accurate? Does anyone else have a radar or GPS result?

All the magazine reviews I have read are posting 38 to 42 MPH range.

I'm confused as Tamiya initially boasted high top speeds but then seemed to retract the claim and now I am hearing otherwise!!!!

What is the TRUTH.

Very curious if magazines are boosting or curbing figures...

Thanks
Tom
