Well I went out and tested again today and got the truck to track alot straighter and easier to control. Got it up to 76mph and then the composite slipper shoes flew out and I dont know where they went. I either burned them up because of slipping or they couldnt handle centrifical force. Anyone know of a fix for this? Is this the unofficially fastest emaxx now? I dont know of one that is faster. I dont have video but next time out I will get some doing 80 mph passes. I still have some higher gears to use but not sure when the slipper started going away. So it might go faster the way it is.

Ditch the slipper completely - for what you are doing, its wasted energy.

Very exciting speed! I've never heard of a faster Maxx. Yeah I'd find a way to ditch the slipper or lock it. (Hurry up Mike! lol kinda depressing)

Edit: Maybe you should get a Strobe slipper. I was thinking that you had one.

I am sure the strobe would work flawless but the gears are very limited. I wont be able to gear as high as I am with a strobe. Just wait this maxx is going to break 80 mph next time out.
