Thanks for sharing. Good reminder to consider balance shift during the transition from acceleration to braking. I still struggle with eliminating all play in my cars, and wonder how much is allowable. I'm always interested to hear how other people run their speed cars, I have so much to learn still!

@@cyclecats Thank you!
0 play is prefereble but unfeaseble.
I bought a lot of shims and rubber O rings via ali to eliminate as much play as possible on all parts (arms, wheelhubs, axles and stub axles). I also made parts myself for the steering mechanism.
I have made quite a few videos for my Slash and Limitless. And i have made several videos about part like diffs and shock setup. Maybe those can help you for setting up your car even better.
I have watched your 86mph 1/16 losi 2wd run thats bonkers! Just a few ideas for your car:
-Maybe add a front wing for extra downforce so you dont wheelie?
-If you dont have enough space for a battery, maybe consider a differeny body. Maybe deltaplastics of bittydesign have a fitting GT body
-If heat is an issiue consider doing only one run and let the electronics cool down (also after a failed partial run)
-Good choice on the remote! It has so much functions i dont use all. But it has build in lounch control making accelerating much easier! Look it up
-A castle esc is always nice! Does if have datalogging? if yes, read it after driving it will give you a lot of valueble information (some guide rules: Ripple can be maximum 10% if your voltage on 3S 1,26V, Voltage dipp preferbly less than 0,5V per cell)

Have you considered switching out the hoons for a set of powerhobby grippers? Ive been running them on my V1 limitless and they feel alot more grippy than the hoons.

[@remborc]

I dont drive the Hoons, they are for drifting and i use then to work on the car. I only speedrun with foams.
Before i drove with GRP's but i had a few bad sets of tires so i discarted all off them
