Wow Pete, that's a bloody decent speed you got out of that DT02 setup! And that smash into the kerb, Shhhiiiiii?!?!?!?! 👏👏amazing it wasn't damaged more, those alloy plates you used did a good job! At the moment nobody is getting close to Bob and he reckons it will go faster! But you never know who is in the wings... I don't think I have anything to beat the 40 I got already, and I can't find an affordable faster brushed motor. But hey, it's just for the fun of it. I enjoyed seeing this run of yours mate, nice one! 😎👊👍
Hiya mate. Yeah it's pretty tricky with the standard wheelbase because you have to be really gentle with the throttle but not so gentle that you run out of car park before it's going full speed. Oh yeah I was expecting it to softly run into the bushes at the side of the car park and didn't realise that the kerb was just tall enough to stop it dead 😬 Tamiya tough though 👍👍 It would be great to put a system like Bob's into yours or Robs long wheelbase cars because they could probably take the speed without flipping. Yeah don't know how you can do better in the brushed class because you tried all the different motors last year. Anyway, hope you are ok with your bad back and managing to get around. Cheers for watching this and best wishes to you 😁👍👍
"oh sh-------goodness". That was a smack! Nice to see this thing scooting like that. My go pro does this wonky crooked thing every now and again too....Drives me nuts!
Oh yeah I hadn't realised that there was a little kerb there and thought it would harmlessly end up in the bushes. I did just about remember not to swear 🤣 Oh yeah I'm sure that there is horizon leveling on GoPro. Need to investigate. Many thanks indeed for watching 😁👍
Wow! I was surprised to see it driving after that high speed smack into the curb!! 45mph is really good and I am not sure I will be able to top that with what I have here but I will give it a go soon! Great speed with the limited area you had to run in and I glad it made it home in one piece! Take care Pete!
Hiya Addam. Yeah I'm amazed that the bumper or chassis didn't break. Tamiya tough 😁 With the 2s limit on this contest it's down to high kv motors although I still have the option of the 22t pinion. Many thanks for watching and good luck when you get round to having a go at this 😁👍👍
Hi there. Yeah it went pretty well but when I made this I hadn't seen Rob's 47mph run so I feel like I need to try again now 🤣 Many thanks indeed for watching 😁👍
Hiya Derek. Oh yeah we've had the Mazda 3 for a couple of years. It is very nice. Still got the Mazda 2 also which is getting on in years a bit. Cheers for watching mate. Best wishes 👍👍
@@coygtrc Hi there. Yeah I think that this is as fast as it will go with this setup. Mark and Rob had the best idea of lengthening the chassis to keep the front wheels down. I think that it should have been a rule that you need to keep the standard wheelbase because it makes it more difficult. Many thanks indeed for watching 😁👍
@PeteWylieRC Perhaps try the 22t pinion ? In theory, it should accelerate a little slower (not sure as Lipo + Brushless = so much torque) and top speed should be about 10% faster, granted you can put full bean and have a long enough road 🤞 Also some expo on the throttle channel.
Hey you could get your bigger trucks going this quick on 3s now you have come to the dark side with lipos. Ha yeah I suddenly remembered my UA-cam monitisation and cut off mid swear 🤣 Cheers for watching mate 😁👍
"Oh Sh#t"!!!! 😂 Blimey Pete, amazing how well that thing took that hit and survived!! I thought you was trying to launch it up the bank again like last year! Glad to see even the professionals such as yourself endulge in a little bit of 'curbing' now and again..... an art that I have well and truly mastered over the years! 😂 Looks like you left some awesome skid Marks on that tarmac buddy..... are you still doing those burn outs in that carpark like you used to back in the day? 😂 45mph is a superb speed for a 2wd buggy..... she looked like a handful to say the least! But, the best part about the beetle body is the way it is shaped- It generally lands back on all fours due to that sloping rear end! Great run mate..... you must try the 22t pinion, that bunch over the other side of the big lake are currently wiping the floor with us UK crew! I'm sure that thing has more to give!! 👍 👍 👍
Hiya James. Oh yeah I was indeed expecting that the car would go up the bank which would slow it down nicely or launch it and wasn't expecting that very sudden stop. I thought that there would be serious breakage but it was Tamiya tough 💪💪💪😁 I don't really think that I count as a professional 🤣 Oh yes I think that the boy racers have been in the car park but not me for at least 35 years! Yes the Beetle is the ideal basher shell really and it does roll back onto the wheels most of the time. I have ordered a 22t pinion so hopefully can get that sorted and have another go. I think the key thing would be the higher KV motor but I don't think I can justify the expense right now. Cheers for your great feedback as ever. Good luck with your future attempts 😁👍👍
Oh yeah I thought it would just go up the bank and stop in the undergrowth and didn't realise that there was a curb 😬 Yes I was really surprised that it wasn't broken. Tamiya tough 🤣 Have you been out with yours again yet? Many thanks indeed for watching. Best wishes 😁👍👍
@@PeteWylieRC mines ready to go, i have a 22t pinion on order if i get desperate 😂 already fitted the worlds biggest wheels/tyres with a 12mm hex... thing looks ridiculous but its all good fun 😂👍🏻
@@PeteWylieRC for a holiday buggy, yes 😂 think i will need to put some weight on the front to stop it flipping... hopefully get out tomorrow with it 😁👍🏻
Hi there. They are Proline 2.2 truck tyres. Mine have the Gladiator tread pattern which you can't get anymore. You can get the Trencher tread pattern still. Many thanks for watching 👍👍
I really like what you did with that kit. I AM MAKING ONE!! Damn you need a wheelie bar! 45 is no joke! God damn! Your a Mazda man too!!! Nice choice! I got a CX50 to replace my 6.
Hi there. Oh yeah it has got a little wheelie bar but I think it needs a longer one 🤔 Oh yes this is our 4th Mazda and I work at the dealership as a driver. I haven't seen a CX-50 yet but looks really nice in the photos. Many thanks indeed for watching and your great comments. Best wishes 😁👍👍
Hi Pete, good run you have there. 45mph is no slouch and you’ve whizzed past me, hands down. I've been busy with work as the Summer Sales are on so i shall be going out for another attempt after the update vid with a higher kv motor. Will film and upload later if all goes well 😂😝🤣
Hiya mate. Yeah I'm beating you at the mo but I'll be interested to see how you get on with more kv's. Hope you manage to get some time away from work for some speed runs. Cheers for watching mate and thanks again for organising the contest 😁👍👍
Awesome run Pete!!!! I would have said it, loud and clear!!!! Thanks for the mention man but you showed the wrong set-up I'm using (cats out of the bag now), right motor, 6900kv but I'm using the Copperhead 10 ESC. I was hoping you would tie Rob, might be time for a new lipo, the shorty pack I'm using really gives the buggy a kick in the A$$... Don't give up mate, bigger tires in the rear next time...
Hiya Bob. Ah right, I was looking on Modelsport and saw that system and thought it must be that. Hopefully not revealing any of your secrets as I think you showed it on your video. Yeah I was going to leave it here but it would be nice to beat McRob 🤔 The 22t pinion might be the thing to do it. Cheers again for the info about yours. I think Peter may as well send you that kit now 🤣😂
Ha yeah you get a few boy racers in there including me in my youth 😂 Yeah not a bad speed but I haven't beaten Rob so maybe I need to try again 🤔 Many thanks for watching 😁👍
Lovely speed there, Pete, great job! I still need to give this one another go, and after that it'll be MF-01X time... You joining for Poorboys this year also?
Hiya. Yeah I still haven't ordered the 22t pinion which ought to give me a bit more speed so might try that. Yeah I'm going to try the MF-01x contest. I did run mine the other day to see how it was and it sounded like a bag of nails, probably because I ran it on the beach and in the sea 😬 Need to give it a bit of tlc for the contest. Many thanks indeed for watching and good luck with your next run 😁👍
