Wow, things are heating up!!!

 

[speeding_Infraction]

That's crazy. With this new 250+ mph body I can't wait to see what people will do with it. Wonder what he did for wheels/tires

 

[LibertyMKiii]

Shows the run itself was 3500 ish ft.
Pretty awesome!

Glad the gps and traps confirmed. Too many people saying the gnss is not accurate. That can be out to rest now.

WOW. Is there a video of that run????

 

[Greengaunja]

The bar keeps rising.. this is actually very good for the hobby. I predict this happens all summer long.

At 219mph, does it matter?

Nope. But I would like to see it. Well, you barely see it anyways . Even my thunder truck with some upgrades can beat any car at work 0 to 60. Even my friend's 700hp supercharged Mustang GT (most likely). All these fast RC vehicles are simply AMAZING

It looks like Batman was right afterall.

That is Awesome!!! I have been waiting for someone to beat the previous record forever.

The previous record was set just a few weeks ago by James McCoy. 216 mph. That record broke Tony Ingalls record of 208 mph which was only about a week before that. This year will see the number climb rapidly and mid 220's is not out of the question

I thought it was 214?

My mistake, it was 214. All these numbers getting thrown out so quickly these days gets a bit in the brain

For those who want to see what 216mph looks like (presumably the 219mph was post traps as someone mentioned that it was still accelerating after it passed through the traps).

 

[EJunlimited]

Everyone there knew that was extremely fast before the speed was announced lol

That was so awesome! Good for David! Someone mentioned in another thread the other day that the WR body had fallen out of favor and nobody was really running them anymore. I’ll bet that changes now!
David‘s a great guy, good to see him have the record…for the moment!

Yeah that is like the blink of an eye anyway.

 

[Armarookie43]

I wonder if it's physically possible for an RC To reach 300 mph?. 219 MPH is not too far from that

Not until major upgrades in tire tech take place.

At minimum, not until someone figures out a better wheel/tire. It's already a problem keeping them in one piece at 200mph, 300mph is definitely going to be beyond their capabilities.
