Some Associated Speed!

Post by Sixtysixdeuce »

Haven's had a chance to radar them yet in current configurations, but I'll give the run-down.

First is the blue tub I had posted before, but with one major change; I plunked the LRP ZR.32 into my OFNA buggy, and replaced it with this Novarossi .28-7RT. Also made the exhaust rear bleed, and put a radiused header on instead of the double 90*. I am expecting triple digit speeds now (had 82 MPH with the ZR.32)

Image

On the left is another blue tub, with a home brewed motor plate that holds the Reedy 550SL 3,500 KV 550 can. Powered by a 6,600 mAh 3S through the AE XP1200 ESC, the final drive ratio with the 24T pinion is 7.05:1 to the 5-1/2" street meats. Metal geared trans, buggy shock towers and arms. I'm expecting at least 90 MPH out of this one, and hoping the motor heatsink will help with temps, as I don't have any more spare capacitors lying around.

Last is my NTC3, recently upgraded from the Fantom FR-15 to a Picco .21. I really have no idea what to expect from this, but I'm hoping for at least 65-70 MPH. It has the tallest gearng available on the high speed pair (26/48, IIRC). Manifold and pipe we TIGed together last weekend. Fuel tank mounting is temporary, until I figure out a unit that will fit in the alotted space. Running the stock 2 speed clutch bell, but with an OFNA LX2 flywheel that I machined down to clear the brake rotor

Just thought some of you may find these interesting!

Hell yeah! Let see some video of any of them running. Especially the Street Meat runner, that looks cool. Way out of proportion but very neat!
