Speed Runners ~ How Fast Did You Go Today?

[Notorious J]

This is just getting ridiculous now

I'm not doubting his runs etc, but I've noticed on YouTube most people show you the batteries etc after the run to prove what it is..
Something is just weird though to me the likes of Phil, Raz and James aren't anywhere near this guys speed..!! and I thought they were the guys to watch....!!

If you check his YouTube channel, you can see that he's been building up steadily over the past few weeks. He tweaks it in small ways, shortens wires and a host of other adjustments. I'm convinced he's totally legit, and that 187 mph will not be his fastest pass. Congratulations to someone who did it completely off the radar, but I'm sure that he's the new target now.

Here's his posts from yesterday and 5 days ago before he made the 181 mph pass. The guy is killing it and doing everything right.

Hard to say on distance but we know at 185 mph held for 3 seconds would eat up 813 feet!
I'd recommend maxing out your 2 pack speeds first before making that big jump in weight....

FYI this appears to be a TP5680 motor
Given he is scratching the surface of 40k rpms it may be the D-wind 1440kv.

He has to be extremely close to maxing out that setup.

Once maxed, he could swap in a Neu or Neu designed Poseidon for some further gains, but it'll have to be a creative setup to fit the necessary gearbox to take advantage of the high KW Neu's. I'm very interested to see someone run a Neu with gearbox

Hard to believe drivetrain can handle 25+HP.THINK IM GONNA LAY XLX2 ON ITS SIDE AN ELIMINATE MY DE-SODER PROBLOMS.3 less connectors

'Peter Dirks' sounds like a typical Dutch name, no wonder he's so good

How would that eliminate desoldering? Still vibration and the wires will still be pulling on the connectors because they aren't in a supported positing the entire path.

Telling ya-all these 55mm motor are night an day from any 40mm motor ive ran.strait POWERHOUSES

Because all my desodering is in between esc an motor.this would eliminate the joints that are de-sodering. Thats how

Oh that's right. I keep forgetting TP puts insanely short leads on their motors. You are running extensions from the motor to the ESC, right?

I haven't went over 30,000rpm with 5660s yet.

Wish I could get my hands on the sodor tp puts on there motor leads.its some goood $hit.think I'll e mail them
BTW I figured out how to get ahold of tp...I you buy from them directly. You have to set up account. If you sign in to your account an email them they respond quik

Got a decent enough run out of a short hop today. GPS gives me 109mph in 692 feet, the run is closer to half maybe a little less. 692ft is going from me to down the street where I start the run to just past me braking then coming back to me to check the GPS. Thats a pretty good mph for a short run I think. Theres more to the car than whats visible. A few things I fabricated that Ima not mention til I'm sure it will hold up.
