Records are made to be Broken -- Nic Case Team Associated -- SR11 Eye Candy

Some beautiful shots of the SR11. Designed with CAD by Nic Case, with the architecture of the Associated NTC3. Expertly machined by Curtis Husting. The V4 body is a Dale Beever tuned version of an original that was inspired by the JCB DieselMax. The wheels are handmade by Nic Case. Built for the purpose -- to be the first Radio Controlled car to go 200mph.
Special thanks to Bryan Blaser, Professional photography

[draven3907]

nic, i was told that you hit 183mph is that true?

[NicCase]

@draven3907 Nope - Just 177mph , on a wheelie -

Hopefully - weather permitting - We can actually let it top out this time.

[lunkprab]

Im curious about type of diff this car has? Is it gear diff, ball diff, or solid axle?

[crazycrutch]

Nic,

The car looks good. I remember discussing streamlining, shaft versus belt, etc. It is really good seeing it all together with the new body. So, the HV140 is doing well for you? I know the 160 is much bigger. What are your thoughts there?

BTW, it was good talking to you today. I will call you again soon.

Matt

177mph that's fast, I have a rustler that go's 126mph I have a long way to go, to get 177mph, but you will hit 200mph soon I know it
