55 seems a little far out for a stock motor

I am in no way defending anyone, but I think a muggy could hit 55, under the right conditions. If you had him running perfect and took him down a steep hill. I think it could do 55. On flat surface, not without some modifications. I read the same report in rc car action on the top speed. In xtreme rc cars they dyno'd the mach 4.27 with a max rpm of 43,250. If you geared your muggy taller, and used something like a jp-3 pipe. I think that you could get that speed. It wouldn't have anything off the line, but once the rpm's started winding you might see something then.

Reguardless though. It doesn't matter to me how fast a truck is. Doesn't mean crap if you can't drive it.

Spur/clutchbell 46/15 = 3.06
Diff pinion/ring 45/11 = 4.09

3.06 * 4.18 = 12.52 overall gear reduction

40 series tire overall diameter = 5in x 3.14 = 15.7inches

55mph/60minutes = .92miles per minute

.92 miles * 5280ft/mile = 4857.6ft/min

4857.6ft/min * 12 = 58291.2in/min (inches/minute)

rpm of wheel to make 55mph = 58291.2/15.7 = 3712.82rpm

Engine RPM = 3712.82 * 12.52 = 46477.76rpm

Nice blow [sm=punching.gif]

But if u recall in that same thread i posted and i quote
ORIGINAL: pythonfan

ok guys i might have gone over the top with 55! the highest it got was indeed 44mph!

that was done by radar and gps!

like i said before my friend 3dcody had his revo clocked at 50+ a revo 3.3 can't do that can it?

where going to race soon and he sais hes revo is faster than mu muggy true/false?
and then in the muggy toped out at 35 thread and i quote again
ORIGINAL: pythonfan

My muggy stock 44mph, took 250'+ 41-43 i got it up to 44 after 310', Clocked Buy cop, and gps, I will get a vid ad soon as my starter probe comes in from killer. Left the old one in tampa[:@]

Edit: I run 20%, and my temp is 215-260 I don't have a temp gage anymore.[:@]
So i did tell people 44, i just had new truck gitters

And hey for next time if ur going to chalange me be prepared i back myself up ever time![sm=shades_smile.gif]

Good day guys!

Factor in wind, friction, ect. 55 would be a perfect world.

Personaly I don't care how fast your 4x4 offroad trucks can go on the street because there is tons of cars ,buggies and drag cars that will leave you in the dust so who cares if your muggy goes 70 mph there is always someone faster if you want to go fast on the pavement get a on road car. I don't see the drag car guys talking about how fast they can climb a mound of dirt, now if you said I won the main at my local track or I can clear the tripple and the revos can't then I would say good job man.
