awsome rc car

[RC Crazy]

Ok i did the coolest thing to a $.25 department store rc car that i got from a yard sale. Description: 12in long, 5in wide, no suspention, complete replica of a grand cherokee, 2wd, gear diff, super crappy electronics and a 380 motor. before i changed it i took it for one last drive, which was slow and uneventfull. Then i cut up the motor mount for the 380 motor untill i could fitt a stock, silver can 540 motor it (i will get a modified motor soon). I dont have a speed control for it but i did hook up the steering and wired the battery directly to the motor just to see how it works. I thought it wouldnt be much of a differance but when i pluged that battery in, the diff unloaded on the left side (this was on a paved road!)and it must gone about 22mph, top speed and i turned the wheel so very slightly and it fliped 8 times and landed on its top. I love this car. My expenseve cars havent recived any attantion in 2 weeks.

Maxxracer, you just reminded me! I was thinking about that a while ago! Maybe my 9 turn D4. muhaahahaha. Hey everyone, look at my 90 mph canned heat! whahooo. I'll go buy one today. And then project canned heat will commence.

[maxxxracer]

muahahah. project melted canned heats tires and stripped gears is more the title im was thinking of. There will be nothing left of it. We'll deffenetly need some pics and vids of it crashing into a wall.

Maybe before we get a 9 turn in it, we should get porportional steering and porportional throttle. Then I can pack my dually in there, and run with 7 cells and my 9 turn :eek:

i still dont have electronics for it but i drove it on my dirt drive way and it made HUGE clouds of dust. The tires are 3/4 of an inch wide, very fun indead.
