i got 31mph out of my stx stock, i have to start to radar stuff, i have a bushnell gun, its a pretty good gun.

RE: Volcano SV SPEED RUN TEST
 
i got 28-29mph... with stock trany...
SH .18, Header, Exhaust. with the stock air filter... will be upgrading soon to a Motor saver, and porting out the sleeve on the motor..

Swapping to a direct drive single speed would pick that up a bit wouldn't it?

Kuppler: I think that transmission is holding it back quite a bit. Even a stock Volcano tops out rather quickly with that trans. A two speed is where you would see the biggest difference those mods made. I'm sure you would have enough power to climb through second gear.

RE: Volcano SV SPEED RUN TEST
 
when you use the radar gun, i though your sasposed to have it going buy the gun. not pointing the gun atthe truck like you have on the vid

kuppler 03-05-2008 11:45 PM

RE: Volcano SV SPEED RUN TEST
 
lol.. i know.. i was telling rich he needed to keep it steal.. and not follow the truck... but idk... next time i guess.....

jumpanddrop 03-05-2008 11:49 PM

RE: Volcano SV SPEED RUN TEST
 
ya, also im sure you were not geting it up to top speed. im sure with the setup you have now it would reach 30-35. i think a direct drive would be a good idea to:D

Macanan 03-05-2008 11:59 PM

RE: Volcano SV SPEED RUN TEST
 
Hey Kuppler, This maxx ill be getting says it will do 45mph when I get it and broke in, ill take it down the road in a car with a video camera showing the speedometer and the truck infront of the car i'll be in

RE: Volcano SV SPEED RUN TEST

I was there, Holding the radar gun. Im sure he can get it to 32mph, just the way it is right now.
Our Alley is Bumpy and off camber and hard to drive straight.
We leaned it out a bit and went out to the Front of the buuilding and used the City Street. Had to watch for cars:D
But the street is SMOOOOTH n FLAAAT! He got a faster run, but we didnt have time to CLOCK it. (lunch time over[&o])
I think he broke 30 mph ,,,easy!
