This is just wild to see, Traxxas will never be able to this

I wish the top speed was given for the Lim.
And exact electrics provided. All he said was 1k quid for the gear. Looks like all Castle gear from one chassis frame capture of the video that I could see. Older XLX? Running some hardcase Race Pack lipos?
Awesome video. No doubt. The Lim is no joke with the proper $setup$.

Pretty badass. Wonder what motor he was running

Just wanted to post this, luckily I checked the threads!

I would have never expected foam wheels to provide such acceleration. I always thought they were light but slippery.

Here's some Even crazier stuff:

I am pretty sure i saw spectrum electronics, it was also maxing out near 120mph. Arma marketing For me the grin was running foams instead of hoons. That's what they knew for sure would fail at these tests.

As for raz, obviously with real 'limitless' electronics it certainly goes much faster. But telling people your car is faster than a F1 car bears a lot more meaning than quartermile numbers.

Are you sure about the Spektrum gear you saw?? I want to look better now.
Firma 8s gear? I'll check. ESC looked like an old CC XLX. Perhaps not a fit, now that I think of it.

A classic Mini Cooper is faster than a Dodge Challenger Demon if you'd put them on a track with corners.
Imo, straight line speed is useless these days. You aren't allowed to do anything with it. Cornering however stays fun everywhere

Don't know. He didn't say much about the electronics, other than the price he paid for them. I enjoyed watching him smoke the F1 car in a quarter mile.

Good watch haha.

Why does the thumbnail show a red body on the limitless?

The magic of Photoshop and clickbait. It makes the limitless stand out better.

And to think that some people have the XLX2 and 1100kv in some of these rigs. And some guys are hitting 190 mph already

 

[Silv3rbull3t]

That race was awesome. Truly shows the amazing ability of RC today.

Most people don't realize how fast these RC cars actually are til they see a video like this.

In the video, there is a 1-2 second shot of the Limitless with the body off, looks like a TP motor, in the stock forward position.

Looks like an XLX and a TP Power motor. Not Spektrum so you know they won’t say anything also running foams instead of Hoons. Interesting how they also raised the antenna wire up quite a bit too.

Raz Shifrin did a 5.23 quarter in one of his speed run cars
