HI!... Saw this on another forum. Would be really cool to try this on my Traxxas E-REVO with MMM on 6S.

Doing donuts on a frozen lake seems like a bad idea. Very cool tho...

Nice wheels. Wonder how they got those chains on the wheels?

Watch your toes Very creative !

DO NOT RUN THIS, on your new hard wood floors

I would hate for that to run over my foot

It's for doing donuts around someone's ice fishing shack.

Now that is crazy. I would really like to see a video of it running.

X2!

Forget the chains...anyone know what wheels those are? It looks like it's just chainsaw chain cemented onto the rims with CA.

HI!... Some are saying that the rims are aluminum. Also it look like the chains have been cut to length and fastened with a nut/bolt. You can see it in the pic. Doubt there is any C/A glue involved.

I noticed that too, but if they weren't cemented on, what would prevent the chains from just slipping around the wheel rim? That's a lot of torque for merely being fastened on with a bolt. I like the style of the wheels, it would be nice to know the brand/model and specs.

I'm guessing so, but it's still the first time I've seen that particular method. Looks very cool and purposeful. The thing I think is the coolest is the perspective and quality of the photo. I've seen so many great R/C cars in my time that I'm kinda over it. At this point for me personally, I'd like to see them presented to me in a more artistic form. Great pic and great name for his model.

can you imagine trying to stop a runaway?!?!? No thank you…

Who says they didn't just wrap some chainsaw chain around the wheels and took a picture for a laugh?
