Thumbs up 7 Cell Epoch Spec2 Dragster Spectacular!!

Yes!! I was bored and decided to finally upgrade to 7 cells of nimh 120mah.. None of the cells would fit in the passenger area of the body and so i decided to go and upgrade to the single blower look to the tri-blower dragster "muscle machines" look.. The car contains my rehandwinded Armature to a lower turn along with my upgraded FET so i dont burn out the ESC. Power is defintely night and day compared to 4,5,6 cell modifications.. My speed checker is currently broken right now, but i believe this Epoch goes beyond 35 kmh or even more... I know it looks kinda awkward, but i do plan on refacing the three stacked batteries to make it look flush to the body or to make it look like somekind of crazy NHRA dragster motor... Runtime isnt that great, but just a little touch of the trigger, the car goes balistic like an uncontrollable angry beast. Top end is superb if i can get it on a grippy surface like a tennis court. Cant wait to try it out!! If i can get the rears to hook up perfectly, like on a carpet or any grippy surface, i believe this epoch will do wheelies since when i tested it out on the kitchen floor hitting reverse to forward rapidly, it did a wheely already. Right now, its a matter of tapping the trigger from slow to fast (like pan car direct drive style) which i do plan on testing at my friend's tennis court (excellent traction) for some pure topend speed!! I will try and get this on video asap so you guys will feel the rush and speed adrenaline that i excitedley feel right now!! I currently use a Mini-Z transmitter since it has adjustable steering travel to help this car from spinning out on turns.. Next project, 8 to 10 cells with a spacious impreza body since it allows it to fit more cells. Anyways, tell me what u guys think?
