RS4 Wonder

[Waste Land]

Okay, during Chrismas I tok my money and bought a blown up RS4. I put new piston and sleeve in there from HPI, HPI 12 Spoke Corsa Wheels, HPI Hard Pre Molded Foams, Team Sorrow Slicks, Hi Flow Filter, and I ported the carb out and polished it. Okay here is the kick in the ass. It's fast! For no reason, a .15fe is not suppose to run as fast as this one does. It keeps up easily with my cousin's RS4(2 speed and Wasp .18) I'm serious when I say that it does 45mph in a parking lot and it doesn't even hit the RPMS and I run out of room. Anyone know any reason why it would be go so fast. Oh yeah and I have it set on 3 1/2 to 4 Turns RICH.

I think it went that fast cuz you threw it. LOL

Honestly I'd like to see some video of this bad boy going somewhere around that fast for me to believe it.

Only way to prove it is get a vid or get the VSM and get a pic of the VCM readings. I know that I had the RS4 3 rtr and my BRO had a NTC3 kit with the same crappy ass 15 FE. That thing killed me. long story...I sold the rtr3.

I'll get a vid by Friday. Scouts honor, lol.

I'm not bragging abut how fast it is. I know a REAL onroad would eat me alive but thats a damn .15FE, the most dumbass motor on market and i have it flying.

I know sorry I didnt get done untill darka nd I promised to have a vid up ASAP. Just look at how fast it accels ont he second pass from me tot he other side of the parking lot.

The video is hard to see, but it doesn't look like it's going faster than 30mph or so, in my opinion. Of course, the only way to tell would be to time the car going a known distance at top speed.

What spur/pinion is on the car? Count the teeth. Maybe it's got some really tall gears.. or maybe it's just a fast car!

 

[Waste Land]

I'm not sure and go to public school, counting the teeth on the gears is out of the question. Stock gearing.

 

[KillerWabbit]

Out of the question? Mark a tooth and count around, it takes 30 seconds! If you knew the gear ratio, you could at least approximate the top speed with a given RPM. It's easy!
