Thanks! I ran it with a 6 cell for a bit and it clicks right along! So I'm excited to see it on 3s for sure!
 
Those things on 3S are just stupid fast. I thought about converting my 18 to an R but it's a pretty big conversion from any of the other 18 lines.
 
If it doesn't snow more by the time my batts show up then I'll beable to video it on the road along with my new 1/16 erevo on 3s....thats 'if' it doesn't snow.
 
I don't run my -18r on 3s any more because I broke a couple of CVDs when I did. Go figure....
 
Heres a poor quality vid I got my dad too take today while I was running it up the road with 3s but it was below zero wind chill so I wasn't having too much fun.

that thing scoots along pretty good. . .and it sounds like a jetoooh wee thats why iLOVE brushless
 
Nice. The one I had would not go straight that fast. It was a tekin mini rage 6800k on a 3s it was also a rc18mt though so it had the big tires.
 
Yeah its pretty touchy lol.
 
Cool vid.

What's all that white stuff on the ground?:hehe:
 
Its the Devil Rob!!!! lol thanks guys.
 
Damn, I know a lot 1/10 scales that wish they were that fast. I also like the R34 Skyline body. I want to see the front is it GT-R or 25gt-t? I like that little car!
 
Yeah their sweet 1:1's for sure! Import me one! lol. Or would it be export? idk.

Man, I wish it was that easy Lloyd, but just to make you drool I can get a R34 25GT-t for around or under $10k.Stock is around 280hp. They are fairly easy build-able to 500hp. Not only that but it would be reliable enough to be an every day driver. Just the gas mileage sucks pretty bad. If I did not have kids I would have a beast....sigh, but the practical side of me has to kick in.:\
