2 second scale 1/4 mile run video
Check out this VIDEO of my scale 1/4 mile run (20 feet 7 inches) with my 3 cell Zip Zap! On a treadmill, it's running about 7.8 mph. I don't want to be redundant, but I just wanted to show a video of it. It's hard to believe it can still go in a straight line. (pretty much)

swearword man, that's fast.
If you keep hitting the wall at that speed, I would think you steering will be off (soon). (I just keep replaying the video and liking the thump sound).
what's the motor you have in there?

1. it's not really a large car, (about 1/4 longer than a bit, and the same width). It's 1/64 scale vs. the bit 1/70 scale
2. Yeah, I hate hitting the wall, I don't do it anymore. For the sake of getting a full scale 1/4 mile for the video, I let it hit the wall. The real ouch was that I tested the blue, green, and red gears in it 3 times each. It hit the wall 9 times total. Nothing's happened to it yet, but no more wall-hitting.
The motor I used is a different clone motor that's pink, but has the same-looking back end as the bit motors.
It's major torque'ie

Yah! I did some 3 cell bits, and I can't get them to go straight with the torque'ie motors for the entire 1/4. The Zip Zap is just the right size for me so far. Don't get me wrong, 1/70 3 cell cars are WAY fun, but for the straight 1/4 action, I have to use a Zap, or an extended Bit.

If I had a mac, I would just stuff it. JK, I like mac's, but would rather not use one for compatibilities sake.
