Brings back memories. In the late 90s and early 2000s I raced with northstar drags out of mn. Kent vahlsing ran the show! He himself was a world record holder. We ran nicad 😂 but my 1/10 scale grand motorsports chassis pro stock ran 1.474 @ 90+ in 1999 I was #6 in the world back then . Now I'm doing this no prep with a Dr10 after 20 year's and it feel awesome!!
I used to be an rc car enthusiast like you, than I took an rc car to the knee. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!! Is someone there? What was that? Must've been my imagination.
Some bullets only travel about 4x faster than that RC car after accelerating for 1 second. And I reckon that car weighs about 50 times as much as a bullet. Wouldn't be surprised if it would take your leg off.
To give some perspective at sea level the Falcon 9 only has this beat by 82 kph per second. This thing is blisteringly fast and can hang with stuff like orbital rockets, so go ahead and say electric is boring.
My 4.5 year old quad does 9G's, and the new guys are hitting 15G's, amazing since its got to grip the air to move. The very first pass in this video is ~110mph ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-uHoFfpLSb2g.html
As an ancient, 69yr old model car guy whose first model car was powered by a Jetex50C motor in the 60's, now got 1/5 petrol and and odd electric one, a tech breakdown in the description would be an interesting read. 👍
It's a secretive game these days. Don't tell anyone what you're running when you're in the lead or you'll be passed by everyone by next Saturday guaranteed.
@@OCD_Engines thats awesome brother im an avid nprc racer but started a little late still getting to know the edge of the stick i cant imagine what you could have been running now in 2021
@@nolimitrc1 I have a more powerful combo here if anyone ever goes faster than a 1.111. I'm ready. No prep looks like heaps of fun, I did a bit years ago with a traxxas timing system and a RAE funny car. It was fast, but illegal by today's nprc rules. Too busy now to start that mess.
I have read that an rc electric dragster on pull away will beat a topfuel dragster. Don't think it would be possible unless you drive with a camera, because it will be impossible to see such a small car let alone control it when its so far away.
Wagen meister Your right, these cars are faster in acceleration than anything else wheel driven on the planet. Top speed it not equal to a top fuel car though, not even close.
+Wagen meister Wireless camera adds weight quite a lot so it would be slower then so that is not an option. Maybe in night race and with very bright light on top of it?
+Mika Saarinen Hi, well I have a plane that weighs 56grams with the battery and the motor is the same thickness as a pencil and you get an FPV system that works on the plane, so it will have little to no effect on a car like this if the camera is properly aerodynamic.
Dominique Pierre Just because your too stupid to build and race a car this fast. Doesn't mean the rest of us are 😂😂😂😂👌👌 Now fuck off with your stupid bullshit. There was over 50 people there who all vouch for those passes
