Why do you want to go that fast with a truck? The time and expense of getting the suspension right isn't worth it. Of course, I have also had those things that I just HAD to do.

Well, the reason why I'm doing this, is the fact that last year's RC Car Action speed event a Nitro HPI Savage was the fastest monster truck. That's the only reason. I have decided to try the 12S lipos. I just hope everything holds up and nothing blows. Here are some pictures:

Your truck will surely look ugly at such speed. 60 is already too much.


The name is Alawi. You can call me Al.
Nice to meet you!

Captain,

Were you familiar with a show called Speed and Beauty? What drives people to go faster? Why spend $200K to $1mil+ on exotic cars? Have you ever seen one of those RC boats go over 100MPH? I just want to make this truck as fast as possible. I think you might also be working on some speed RC yourself. LOL. It is just pushing the limits and having fun. Usually when I make a video of my RC vehicles I have my daughter and my twin little bors' with me. They like it. They are happy. You should try it. Plus my daughter is Autistic and hyper, so anything I can do to keep her busy is great.

Regards.
