You also must take wind speed and barometric pressure into account. Oh, and don't forget to include time-of-day and day-of-week into your figures as well (my rigs run faster on a tarmac at 3:00 PM EDT on a Tuesday than at 11:45 AM on a Sunday.)
 
In all reality, it depends on your tune, nitro percentage and skill. The Tuning goes hand in hand with skill. I am saying no more than 50 and that is probably best scenario. Best thing to do is get a radar gun. Bushnell makes one. Do a search here.

Regardless of your ride, hellfire or someone else's, speed is attained but only those with proof can brag.

Trust me when I tell you the above statement is for your own good! Just to clarify proof is a video that clearly shows that the rc actually attained you claimed speed...Still shots are no good.


As stated above there are many variable to how fast it will be...IMO top speed is overrated!

Agreed! You can get any RC to go fast but can you control the thing when it gets up to speed?
 
I think I'll have to go with Fast Eddie. I'd rather be slow and finish than fast and uncontrollable.:bowtothercnt:
 
Speed isnt the big issue unless you just like to go around in circles all day. Pluse the faster you go the more you break! Some one on hear said it perfectly. Speed=money, how fast do you want to spend!

Heres my proof.. What more do ya need??

forgot to mention that the K&N filter is mounted in the rear. A pro builder (Ya might have heard of him.. Cooperdillion) told me they gain power back there.. Closer to the exhaust the better. Works like a turbo.
 
My Revo was measured @ Warp 2.9 just before it hit a snow- stick moving same into outer space! Sure, none of this can be proven, afterall it happened when I did not even have one!
