I'm very new to this whole RC thing. I had a Nitro Rustler years ago. I just ordered an Arrma Infraction, 4 batteries, and about 400$ in upgrades. It should all arrive in Tuesdsy, and I can't wait. So many videos I've watched of wrecks make me very nervous to even drive it.
Sucks bud ....and I know your pain!😂 But you can with out doubt hear the GRP tire separate from rim on you before you spun out...... foams can sometimes get ya also, but I've learned the hard way and only trust them grp's for lower speeds and if I do use them anywhere near or above 130 I'll keep that set for 100mph runs ... I've lost all trust in grps for this reason. But great first pass and keep pushing bud! Crash Rebuild Repeat! 👊👍 Your putting out great #s with it and hope to see ya keep going!
Thanks man. I know that set was a bit past its working life, and it cost me. Live and learn. I will likely swap over to foams and the speed run body for next time.
@@KBASHRC It’s actually held up. The screw points on the spool are the weak point, but it hasn’t broken a tooth yet. I messaged the seller about those weak points and he said he would replace if it broke.
That was undoubtedly the sound of a broken tire belt! Most likely the cause of wreck....had that happen to me a couple times before I switched to foams
@@Rcprescription It’s not a great fit but with some body trimming it works out pretty well. Another option is the BSR low profile foams. They cut down to 96mm, which is the same size as the GRPs
Dammit man,sucks to see..I'd say like mitch said..either rr or rf came apart otherwise if rear gets loose 99% of the time rears gets loose to the right,other direction. Can clearly hear tire come apart..I've had no issues with grps,I run a thick coat of tire glue around wheel/tire seam on both sides of tire soon as I open them..strapping them only helps balloning,does nothing of wheel/tire separation.they don't do the best at gluing from factory... probably because people were calling them bitching about glue on the wheels..🤷♂️anyway brother keep your head up...we've all had it happen, I guess it's just the shiity part ya gotta go throu to progress.hope ya don't throw in the towel...I'd sodor motor lead onto that damaged port on esc.. you do know once esc is 100% killed You can send it to Castle and theyll give you a new one for $132.non-warrenty replacement..if your honest with tech they'll give you 1 free esc before you have to paying for them..I go through about 5 xlx2 an mmx8s a year..with core its 172/xlx2 an 132/mmx8s...you had car setup perfect for 140+++... it makes you feel any better I ran mine off the road yesterday at 144 miles an hour.everything flew out car except motor..didn't impact anything just rolled alot....surprised minimal damage all in all.
I feel your pain. Tried 100mph with a traxxas bandit for 3 years. Crashed rebuilt and crashed again. Got it to 87mph the fastest. 4092 rocket motor on rwd is insane on a bandit. I knew it was dumb but didnt think it was that hard. Now got into arrma infractions and hit 111 mph in 3 weeks of owning it on a 4082 motor
Oouuuch, Murphy's law, the car finds a pole of some sort 9 out 10!... Telephone poles are 50ft apart, yet the car seems to defeat the odds! 🤦♂️ My limitless has seen 2 poles, one at 76mph and the last one was at 128mph. Ironically, the 76mph was morr intense than the 128 one lol 😂. I hit the curb (the only 3ft long curb on all the road) 1st, then it hit the pole (like 10ft away from me), I saw an explosion of pieces as in slow motion fly in every direction, then the car flies across the street 2 lanes & hits one them electrical utility boxes on the sidewalk. But the chassis survived 🤗😂
Yeah, I wanted to loose my shit when I crashed initially, lol. I kept composed for the sake of the video. After getting everything back all electronics were saved and the main damage was to the chassis and diff cover. $35 cost
That sucks man! Crazy how they can find that one thing to hit.
That’s the speed run game. Shit happens. Could’ve been worse. I think a new chassis will fix most of my issues

@@speeedy_rc how is the fitment with 30t gear on OTAY spool????I had a 31t on hr spool an it broke by 1 of the 3 screw holes..

That's some smooth ass asphalt.

They always find the slimmest thing to hit sorry bro thanks for sharing 🏎️🔥🔥🔥🔥
Great Run
What tires are you running?…. Did you have to change the hex?
Im running a set of GRPs when I made my pass here. Yes, you'll have to swap over to a 17mm hex set up.
@@speeedy_rc gotcha… thank you brother…. I heard people say the tire size was odd and caused issues finding something that worked

Gotta make sure the rear springs tight enough
NTSB was called to accident. You were Flying .
Lol, definitely
Wow bro 😢
We come back stronger
Been their two times
Same thing just happened to me hit the curb sideways flew in the air maybe couple feet front half broke off 😭
Yeah, sucks!! Fortunately the parts are relatively cheap
Rebuild and I'll send you my titanium custom center driveshaft to try it out. Anything over 100mph with stock plastic shaft you asking carnage lol..
Thanks man. Looking to have it rebuilt in the next week or two. Waiting on another part to arrive.
SORRY MAN... We've all been there...😢
No worries. Back and stronger now

Those Surpass KK & Rocket motors aren't half bad are they..
I use a lot of them in various sizes.
Need to watch kbash running all stock everything except motor and esc and doing over 140
I’ve talked to him about the vendetta. He’s helped me get this one to 136mph. Shit just happens. Pass was going well and then 💩
I hope for you its just the chassis which is cheap, The electronics hopefully will be saved.
It was mainly the chassis. All electronics survived. I will be rebuilding here in the next couple of days.

Of Course 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Your car was definitely trying to commit suicide😂
🤣🤣🤣
Yeah stop signs mail boxes and garbage cans and 25 mph signs do it all the time.
🤣🤣
I feel your pain. When i crashed i hit a pole...huh, Stop sign pole lol.. New chassis your good bro...😎

All good we can rebuild it
Just got everything. Chassis and gearbox cover, $35. Not bad for the damage it took and what I saw at first glance. All electronics still work
Well shit man
Yep! Lol. She’s back up and running. Have a couple more parts coming but I’ll have her back out soon enough.
Hell ya nice crash 🤣😝😂😜😉👉👌
🤣🤣 Brutal
Oops...!
Hope your vehicle is Repaired
Sorry man that sucks. But that’s speed runs
It sucked but she’s made a full recovery
Next time do it in the MIDDLE of the road. Not the side lol
That is the middle. I start from the entrance and end on the other side. Where I’m standing is truck parking, which is a shorter space
Dude can’t drive 😂
@@ThouSayest GRP blew causing the car to spin out. Driving was not the issue
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
