Speed Test: This is the second of many speed runs to complete. The car is geared to achieve a top speed of 100mph, and with time the speed gun will show that.
What's under the hood? - Flux Blur ESC and 2200Kv motor on a Spyder 6s lipo (5300mAh - 30c). New two-shoe center transmission w/ 23/25 pinion. A mechanical brake linked to a 4th channel stops the vehicle - 2-speed prohibits motor braking. Digital servos from XP and Hitec steer and brake the beast. Other modifications include a few cnc parts and parts from other 1/8 scale vehicles. All controlled by a Airtronics M11x.
@2012goingNutz I was thinking about foam, but I like your idea. What about the raised portion of the rim that seats the tire? Shave it or leave it?

you cant use glued tires over 65. You need solid tires. Just a tip. You can make them by cutting up a pair of tires and cut the side walls. Make the tread a little shorter to fit the rim and hot glue them to the rim. Or hunt for a pair.
