[chaddythepimp1973]

@MarquitosWay got another RC8Be an unofficially got it upto 108mph!! using the castle mamba max pro with 50degree's of timing, 223/46 gearing, ofna foam wheels, a novak ballistic 4.5T motor and using 4S oir 14.8v venom 250 amp lipos! have a video of it shortly as soon as I can get another camcorder and someone to hold it, its too fast for my road and all you see is a blur........

[chaddythepimp1973]

@MarquitosWay So am I (still waiting to buy another RC8Be, had to sell everything for money lol! dont worry this year it will happend, maybe not on 4S tho but it will happen) I dont have the money for custom wound motors and so on so offf the shelf will have to do! thanks for your comment!!

[nts213]

I have the hv pro 6.5 factory solder system.

[nts213]

Can anybody get novak to modified there ESC i have the hv pro 6.5 in my evader im trying to get it run like your RC8.

[chaddythepimp1973]

@nts213 what ESC do you have, an HV Pro ?

[chaddythepimp1973]

@chaddythepimp1973 sorry read it too fast ok here is what you do buy some capcitors from novak and solder them in parrallel 3 extra ones should be enough

and plus if you do it right you can run 5S lipo off of your HV pro with 2 batteries a 2s lipo and a 3S lipo, you hook the 2 series lipo to the connector that when the power switch is on, the esc comes on(that is the bec side) and you plug the 3S into the other connector, but be warned this is only for speed runs !!

[offroadrc]

that's allready fast for 4s. i would like to see the rc8e going 120mph!

[chaddythepimp1973]

@offroadrc Just think that was with offroad tires, the stock 15/46 gearing and no mods at all !!! As it stands now with my 2, 2S, 35C, 5200Mah lipo's 23/43 gearing and belted on-road tires I am getting it to 115mph(no vids yet unfortunately) I'm in the process of getting 1, 4S 50C lipo, and using sponge tires with 25/43 gearing and that should do the trick ! As soon as my camera man cvomes back from vacation and I get a better radar gun that reads over 120mph I will post the vid !! thanks !!!

if you want it to go quicker take the spoiler off it creates drag and it wold be lighter as well

[chaddythepimp1973]

@TheNachomanlibre actually I need the traction that it creates !! without it I would be all over the place(tried that before) actuall I'm getting the pro-line 1/8th high downforce wing for more down force, all the weight in an RC8e is in the front and the more rear down force helps out alot, all I have to do is point the front end down a little bit and it evens itself out ;)

[chaddythepimp1973]

allright you guys with the thumbs up really kill me lol well now you gone and done it, lets see what the RC8e is really made of and I'm going for broke 125+ stay tuned in a week or so !

[chaddythepimp1973]

@HPIxDrift @HPIxDrift yeah I hope so lol, he's running a 22 tooth pinion gear(mine is the stock 15) and 34 tooth custom spur gear(mine is also the stock 46) plus he is using a 6S lipos wheras I'm only using a 4S lipo. Stay tuned, in a week or 2 I'm going for 110 mph(if all my custom made parts come in that I ordered maybe even 120 mph? lots of titanium and graphite to give you a hint,

[chaddythepimp1973]

plus Novak is working on my HV ESC to handle 1000 amps per phase(stock is 400amps) using some ultra performance mosfets and so on. I probably shouldnt of told you that, oh well I guess the cats outta the bag lol

[HPIxDrift]

@chaddythepimp1973 thats kool, but I think you should buy a Speed gun first. you be surprise why your speed is so slow but looks fast. Ive personally seen a rc8 with a mamba monster 6s doing speed runs. and OMFG it smoked my Friends Novak HV 4.5T slash 4x4 which is half the weight of the RC8.

[chaddythepimp1973]

@HPIxDrift actually the day before we made the video I had my friend who is a state trooper use his ladar(lazer radar) gun to see what see would do and most of the passes were around 74-75 mph but yeah I agree I def. need to get one !

[HPIxDrift]

@chaddythepimp1973 ohh ok. but make Sure next time to take a vid with the "Ladar". cause if i were you, id be proud to have the fastest 1/8 in the world but off course Nic Case will beat it cause he has some hook ups with Castle Creations.

[chaddythepimp1973]

@HPIxDrift actually nic uses 6S lipo's, I'm on a strict 4S lipo only thats where the record will come into play if I hit 120 mph ;)

[chaddythepimp1973]

@HPIxDrift I have a kool hookup with Novak, Ive been with them since the old t4 days in a gold tub rc10 lol ! they don't give me stuff for free or anything but they are modding my ESC just so I can break the 4S 120 mph record !!! kool huh ?

[HPIxDrift]

@chaddythepimp1973 Thats Legit.
