Is it too fast
 

I was wanting a nitro car (and probably will still get one) but if i don't want to get one i still want to race in the nitro stadium with my electric stadium. I would be using my xxxt. I was wondering if there is anyway to get it fast enough to keep up with the jato 3.3 maybe in the high 50s low 60s. First is this passable. secondly i have a budget of 400 what should i get to do these speeds. (i know i am crazy but i just want to keep up with the jato in the race i will use the throttle end point adjustment to keep it under 40 mph for racing no more for racing, but for speed runs i want to stay not to far behind the 3.3. If this will not work tell me its cool. Also do you think it would even be worth it and will it be controllable at those speeds. if not i can just go with something else thanks. Cool thanks (if it is to crazy just say so its cool):027:

Basically, don't bother. From what I have heard, the XXX series (and pretty much all other rear motor vehicals) don't handle BL well...Most people have to tape weight in the front to make it even controllable. Basically, go with something with less weight over the rear wheels and preferable something thats 4wd to keep the front end down...I don't think a XXXT will be all that great onroad...ESPECIALLY with that much power.

OK thanks i thought so just making sure i did not pass up a potential project

do a bl jato! lol the motor wouldnt be right over the rear wheels and it would be funny to make the nitro cry when u pass it up with bl power lol

BL Jato's rock, I would love to build one out of the two I have. But don't want to give up the Nitro either! LOL, maybe when my 3.3 dies I will.
