[jondilly1974]

Thanks brother! I'm still in awe was hoping low 130s, got on throttle way late so I really want to pull log and see but OMG 137 first 8s Limitless pass

Don’t get too comfy there. I will be making another pass Thursday or Friday and will be looking for a PB

But honestly I like to competition. Keeps me driven. Keep up the good work

If someone set up the GPS on a Typhon, set it on the dashboard with a battery plugged in, then proceed to drive the car 140 mph, does that count? Asking for a friend.

If you are gonna do that, why not take it on a plane or ask Elon to take it on his rocket

Do you prefer hoons??ive tried to like them.cant get traction with them..last try was a hard crash.

Here are my logs for my two runs today:

130mph XLX2/1717-1650 CHNL 90C 9500mah 8S

125mph XLX2/1717-1650 SMC 90C 9200mah 8S

The CNHL voltage stayed just a little bit higher which explains the extra 5mph.

I just haven't changed them as I've had great luck with them. No issues with traction they've held up great so I can't complain at all. Not sure I prefer them over GRP's haven't ran the GRP's on the Limitless yet but they did great on the Typhon up to 125. And Hoons clearly held at 137 mph today so
Here's a short of today's 137mph pass if you have Instagram, video will be uploaded to my YouTube channel by tomorrow.

FWIW running the minimum traction you can safely control and get to top speed with (stickier tires let you get to top speed, so can be used on a shorter run) is faster. Sticky tires cause more tire drag and slow you down significantly.

I park my car at the starting line, because, well you know. Nice pass Jon. Now we got fast trucks to contend with too.

Crazy speeds in such a short time. Well done. Straight as an arrow too.
