sick vid, i ran 62 mph with a sc10 mamba max set up on a 2cell lipo 50c discharge rate and a 60c burst on a long open back street, around that speed it just flips over when it hits the smallest bumber or pebble, lol, it also didnt last long either :(
Lol, yea me and my friend with his mamba sc10 were following it in a grand am and hit 60 then it flipped, landed back on it's wheels as I swerved into the left lane to not run it over. Other than that, we always race people with our brushless trucks and see how close we can get. Still have yet to have someone run it over.
Funny running across this because I've wanted to do it since childhood. I can't wait for summer. I have done it before without a camera and slower car. Now I have that truck and a Contour helmet cam (Need to get a brushless) so stay tuned! Hopefully get a bunch of us in back of pickup and have 3 or 4 cars goin with onboard on mine and also same view as this video. Good recipe for funny crashes.
Great vid guys thanks! Superb sound track too, good choice!
Guys are saying this isn't as good as it should be because it's 2wd but that's the reason I like it, When you see someone driving one of these in a nice balanced slide or keeping it nice and straight at high speed you know they're no mug!!
i love RC cars and this is one of the best videos I ever seen. I did not like slash because is 2WD but after seeing this vid Im reconsidering to buy one :p
Totally cool! Also, it takes some expert driving to not only control at that speed, but to do it from a moving vehicle in front of the car! True 5 star video!
At that constant speed, I was thinking you could probably steer with the trim knob instead of the wheel on the remote. It would make it a little more stable. I did it with my VXL, on the street though. Awesome vid. --Oklahoma.
wow arfblah what ever your names is.....your pretty harsh, not everyone in the world knows everything about RC cars. He was just trying to be helpful by stating about nitro engines. And by the way, my TRX nitro engine runs flawless and i beat it to hell every day just about.....
Great vid man! Gives a real feel for the speed this set-up can achieve. Did you look at the speedo of the truck when you were filming? What was the max speed?Perfect Primus track too!! Thanks guys!
You can fit up to a 3S 5000MaH 20C Lipo in the slash battery compartment. That translates to about 30minutes of intense off road abuse, to about 1hour of casual jumps and bashing around in your local canyons.
I love all the tractor tire marks in the road. It skims over everything like nothing. I want one, how mach are they. I'm too lazy to go to traxxis website
Whats your gearing? I have a 19T on the stock spur with the VXL on a MM Side winder ESC, and a 3S lipo in a slash, its about 35 degrees when im running and the motor, i can hold my finger on it for about 5 seconds before it hurts. Im worried about the summer time when its in the 80's and 90's... Do you thik a 17T or 16T would be good and give my good speed still???
It is water resistant, but not water proof. I have run my VXL Slash in the rain and in mud puddles with no problems, but I wouldn't recommend a full water emmersion.
i have a slash with vxl brushless and i found a plastic box that opens and closes that i could put esc in i cut holes in the top for the leads then sealed it with dct tape and safety tape works great
I looked up Ken's '06 highlight video. I know how you got confused. He used the same song. The audio clip at the start may seem like his car, but it is actually the beginning of the song. If I still had Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 I could tell you where to find the sound bite, but my ex-wife took most of my dvd's when she left. At least I got to keep the guns and the RC's! LoL. How are you liking your Slash?
i freaking love it, you can bash it so much more than any fucking stadium truck, my st couldnt handle as much of a beating as my slash, its AMAZING!! and my Xcellerator sucks...the engine keeps breaking, that was so far my worst buy, i think next i might get an mt, or a 1:18 onroad. But on the topic of subarus, kens car does sound like that when started, ive seen his car in person. Its pretty sweet. Wbu what other RCs are you running?
Its a subaru, type in ken blocks highlights from 2006, its the exact same audio sample and song... and i know for a fact thats what his subaru sounds like
Bro, that song was recorded 17 years ago! I haven't done a single thing to it. The sound bites in the song are from Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 filmed in 1986. Look it up. And no, it's not a Subaru.
Actually, the intro is from the song I used in the video. It is Primus' "Jerry was a Racecar Driver". It was recorded in 91 and that is pure bred American V8! Arrr arrr arr! LoL
There is only one Slash model. People just do a lot of upgrades to make them go faster. Traxxas released a Slayer, which is a nitro 4wd version, but it is based on a Revo chassis and has a Slash body on it.
I was using a Maxamps 3s Lipo. I popped a shock cap and tore a front tire in half. Since I made this video I bought a Mamba Max and I have to say I love the programming ability and all the options. The only downside is I have to hookup my laptop to do it. The VXL is program on the fly but not many options.
wow you tore a tire! one hell of a crash I suppose, but if the only internal part that failed was a shock cap, then that is a true testimony to the things durability. I just broke my first part yesterday after having it for nearly 2 months. XD Thanks for the info, and keep the vids coming!
