How fast does ur car, stadium truck, or monster truck and what engine...seeya time to go to school lata
 
Top speed isn't usually a factor with these cars. Monster trucks, buggies, and st trucks can't usually run wot for very long. This is because their engines are not made to maintain super high rpms for more then a few seconds. These cares are more geared for "Stop and Go" driving.
 
yeah, about a 100 mph.....yeah...
My buggy hits just over 40 on avg
and the truggy hits high 30s on avg......but it gets there in less than 10-15 ft....
 
My smartech goes 119 when I have my supercharger cranked up and hit my nos. Then when I put my K&N Filter on it, I hit 125. But then when I put my Rcu Tee shirt on, it goes back down to 123.
 
NO way,Smartech's are faster than that,I'm sure if i gunned it that it would be in the high 130's.
 
Smartech are sick,remember to aim the Smartech at a concrete wall. Zero to top speed and top speed to zero in record time!





A few 1/18th scale with a Mamba combo and proper gearing plus quality Lithium Polymer cells can hit around the 60MPH mark,on road nitros in the 1/8th scale can top 80MPH...a good 1/18th scale buggy in the mid 40's...

The most impressive speed beasts are pure ten and 1/8th scale on roads,in hands of experienced drivers these zoom around the track at break neck speeds with total ease.


And who cares its about having a good time not setting a land speed record.Unless you are a Smartech owner and want to set records in the braking departament!(on a concrete wall)
 
I know this one guy who had his BONE STOCK Stampede going 54mph before!!! What do ya think about that??

Lemme guess.. trunk of the car and got a speeding ticket? :ponder2: :banana:

It was tied to the back of my Savage, when the Savy is not pulling MW's Revo around it was clocked at 90+ and just as it shifted into 3rd gear I ran out of space. :thankyou:

Jimmys are for weak LST's I was dragging an Excursion with the parking brakes on LOL
 
theoretically my ntc3 hits 73.. in the space i have to play with it, it probly barely touches 50. fun to have the extra power though :D
my drake tops at ~35
 
Ummm...who cares? LOL! On the box, my buggy says 50 + but as it is right now, I don't see it going over 20. If I hold on WOT for too long it sounds really bubly and I don't think that is good. I woulldn't say over 20. Oh ya, I hooked up rocket boosters on my Smartec and it went 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 miles per hour. BEAT THAT! ROFL

Got my 9.5 up to around 110. It was in its storage bin, in the bed of my Titan, on its way to my buddy's backyard track, it would have gone faster but the Titan has a conservative governor :shrug:. No ticket, I live in a small town, and there aren't enough police to worry about getting a ticket.

Under its own power, with my buggy's short gearing, maybe high 30's, low 40's.

EDIT: If you measure from space, the buggy is running circles about the same speed that the earth rotates. Thats gotta be pretty quick.
