Mojave New world record again!!

[MFM]

World record for fastest Mojave wreck!! 93 mph at impact. We from the first 100mph Mojave to the slowest Mojave in less than 24hrs LOL. Heart broken to say the least!!

I’m still trying to get her torn down!! Luckily the 2028 survived. The XLX2 might.be a loss. The wires pulled and main harness took a shot! Praying my brand new savox monster is ok. I got all the electronics out. Working on chasis now.

Man that sucks

 

[Engineer]

Ouch. I winced when I heard the impact

Sorry to see the Mojave this way.

 

[MFM]

I did the deadly look away when a car approached the intersection un from it. Tearing her down to see what’s salvageable. I’m happy that I at least got the title yesterday as worlds first 100 and fastest Mojave. Or it was all for nothing!!
she’s going into the shop. Insurance will probably total her out lmao. There goes my premiums! Hahaha.

 

[Doom!]

DUDE! Let me know where to send the get well soon card! So I guess the100 mph jump is out?

Seriously sucks. Does look quite impressive though, congrats on two records in a 24hour time period even if one wasn't one you were after.

 

[Notorious J]

No witty retorts for this one. Ouch.

Did you ever find the lipos? I don't see them in the carnage.
Seen it several times now that people hit there own cars. Man this sucks, one lesson I would take from this is to stand on the opposite site of the car in order to have constant eye contact up to the pivot point.

I’m literally sick to my stomach for you bro. I’m gonna have nightmares.

The jump is still on as long as the XLX2 is ok!! Have tons of spare parts but only one 2028 set up!!

found the lipos in the woods same side of the road the rig landed. I had a perfect spot but drove up there when she got stuck in the grass. Was gonna end the sesh and head home but I still had a lot of juice left in the 6s. Shoulda stayed home!! Hahaha.

I’m literally sick to my stomach for you bro. I’m gonna have nightmares.

Bro I’m still in shock!

Speed is a cruel mistress

Speed is a cruel mistress

W great power comes great responsibility and even greater potential wrecks!!

 

[MFM]

Should bang right out!

NOOOOOOOO!!
Not the vitavon!!!

 

[jkflow]

Didn't someone state that it takes a 5(?) ton press to get the 11degree angle on a 7076 chassis? That is about the force generated during the impact into a 'soft tire'.

 

[jondilly1974]

Makes me want to stop putting expensive parts on my speed run rigs. Just keep them cheap and light. Disposable.

 

[MFM]

Sheeeit, wonder what the ti properties would be!?

 

[MFM]

Here she is. Months of building now reduced to a box! Fml

Dude!!!
Arrma tough? Yeah right, you've now got THE proof it's one big marketing lie. I'd say sue them
OT: planning for a Mojave rebuild (offroad); I sure hope so.

 

[LibertyMKiii]

Ouch that is one of the worst ones I have seen as far as damage.

I have never been a believer in buying all sorts of strength upgrades for a speed runner for this exact reason. 100+mph crashes will break anything no matter the strength if you hit a solid object at full speed.

Hope you keep trying new things and stick with it!

No one could build a 100 mph rc car that could withstand a 5ton plus impact. If you take that as a challenge, go ahead. It should be interesting. And expensive. Arrma tough if you don't crash into a car at 100mph. I was driving my Typhon a few days ago. Nose dived into the grass from 15-20 feet high. Only thing that broke was a 3d printed bumper support. Cartwheeled across the lawn at 30mph-40mph, drove away from it. IDK if your just being funny or not but they are "Arrma Tough"
