167 mph electric RC car
Tim Smith Racing 8 cell speed run. 167 mph
The right front wheel failed and broke off causing the car to loose control and roll over at 167 mph taking out two canopy's a folding table and laptop.

OMG such speed and for a moment I thought that it hit someone’s foot or leg
or something and it would have hurt very badly if it did. And such force
that it broke the leg of the canopy. Wow.
Im ready to race, BUT I run 1/8 scale. Lets make a bet and a race, you
build a 1/8 scale and beat my speed (certified) and ill build one of your
cars and lets see who does better speeds in the others class…. 😉 I just
love building cars so either way I come out winning. …lol…. you built a
hell of a fast car but can that speed be done with a 1/8 scale?? And are
your motors out yet??
so lucky…that would have hurt pretty bad from that crash, if it had hit
your leg. Man though that thing was bookin’ lol Props man i never seen my
FireFox chassis do that and i had 10 cells.
Hi Tim I am purchasing the drag car this week just a few questions hope u
can help there giving me the servo just wanna no will the xl2 esc fit or
which do u use and what batteries can I fit in there there giving me the
wider version just like yours
Hi Tim thanks for your help there hooking me up with a51evo just wanted to
ask you the motor I will be getting the neu 2200 kv the one you told me
about how about esc what’s the best of the best and what cell batt do I
need money is not a issue I just want big speed cheers hope to hear back
It sounds more like a case of you finding that goldilocks zone in gearing
or your custom motor, that part you did awesome at. Nothing at all against
you, I just dont like maxamps. The 3s they sold me shorted out within 6
months and they refused to warranty it, so until I see that $190 refunded
or i get a new 3s hardcase pack they wont see my business again.
Fewer intros and fewer credits. There was more time spent on credits than
the actual run. Way more pics of the car, both before and after the crash.
Plus at least one slo-mo shot of it at top speed. With NO pictures or vid
of the car (the reason I clicked on this vid) I can’t give praise for the
work that went into it, since I didn’t get to see it. But it sounded like
it was a great effort.
Nice run, if i was you i would be putting about a pound of weight im the
front. I loved the run. I run the 1/8 scale and i am in the high 150’s but
wont post till i get the record which should be in the next 3-4 weeks. Nice
run though. Think you can do it with an 1/8 scale??
I build my motors myself and as of right now I am not mass producing them
but watch my web site (TimSmithRacing com) that will be the first place
they will be made available. A Neu 2200 kv (1415-1Y) would be very close to
what I am using.
Whoa that could kill someone and main good thing is no kids around..
Nice concept, but the fact you almost took yourself out should tell you
something.
Perhaps 4mm more on the width perhaps… Yikes. Death by RC Dragster…
Wow
Wow! #ElectricRC
ONBO
that is one MASSIVE speed controller… 1:25

That was super fast

Maybe tape a brick to the top of it

Really good and f**ing fast! the camera man can be soooo lucky that he`s
not injured..:-)

@seagramrip187 I only use MaxAmps lipo cells and any speed control that
will handle 8 or more cells
Which one should I ask for and that neu motor 2200 kv will that be ok for
my ofna dm1

I hold my breath every time the car comes at the camera. This was amazing
to witness!!! Good job Tim, but wil make it right on the next trip!
