This was the 78.6mph run, you can see the speed on the gps very clearly. I can just about make out the 80.4mph too, but its on its side, so you really have to squint..
Yes, that thing hauls a$$ but they still didnt reset it in front of the camara. I can save 100mph in my gps for fastest top speed in my 1:1 car. Would you believe it if I pulled the body off and it showed 100mph on video. All I am saying its very easy too fool people. If you going to do it, reset the gps on video so there are no skeptics. Besides that record was beaten by OverrevO's 91.2 mph run on only 6s not 12s with alot smaller 1515 motor. Its basically an 1/8 scale also.
It is of my opinion that the slip stream will be faster. The illuzion is a nitro body, so part of it is designed to provide airflow to the motor and what not. Also, just looking at it, it's not exactly the most aerodynamic body.
The slip stream is designed for an E-Revo, and it is extremely close to just being a huge low profile bubble, which is very good for reducing drag.
Good luck, 100mph on 6S in an MT would be quite an achievement.
I was thinking the illusion would be good because of the low roof design. I also thought the ramped front will provide the necessary down force needed to keep the front down. 100mph on 6s with a MT is definitely going to be a challenge.Thanks I will probably need the luck.
I am sure he did it also. I am just saying the video could of been a little better. His setup is double my voltage with 12s compared to 6s with a bigger motor and I am sure a heavier truck. Anybody know what esc he was using for 12s. How about batteries? Speaking of batteries anybody have any sugestions? Obviously I need a high c rating with alot of mah. I want to keep them as light as possible yet also I dont want to break the bank and be able to use them later with the Silverback build.

Hyperion G3 VX's true 35C rating, up to 6500mah...

A 1515 just doesn't have enough power to reach 100mph, especially limiting voltage to 6s. For a realistic chance you need a 1521 atleast if not a 1527. I've got a 1521 you could run on 12s

Harold ,That erevo hit 91.7 with a 1515 1.5 d on 6s. Buggies are hitting over 100mph with a even smaller 1512 1.5d on 6s. Why do you think its not possible? My truck is lighter lower and more compact and I am definatly going to have better lighter wheels and tires . I also have a little higher gearing. I dont see why it is'nt plausible but we will see. This reminds me of this guy named craig a blower guru @ BDS (Blower drive service) . He said I wouldn't break a 1000hp with my setup no matter what. Well on the dyno I surpassed it by 80 hp and it was still going up pulling past 6500 rpm. Just goes to show you anything is possible.
Since nobody is noticing they different parts on my truck. I am going to give some of them away. Look at the arms dont they look a little narow ? Those are the first gen narrow rpm aarms that were made for original maxx trucks. I figured those will help make the truck more compact. Also if you look closely those are UE titanium cvd's to futher reduce weight (lighter than the current stock plastic axles). If you notice the longer extended hardcore titanium skid. I wanted to lengthen the chassis without using the heavier monoblock. I am going to make a lite weight carbon fiber top plate also.
