no man YOU dont know your rc stuff.
its been brought up soo many times at the radiocontrol zone fourms. its just not possible/practical to turbo charge, supercharge and use nitrous oxide on a 2 stroke rc car engine.

btw, hey there nitroboy, remember me?
#1 Its not possible to "turbo charge a nitro engine"
#2 There is a super charger system out... it isnt very practical and doesnt work like a real supercharger/
#3 for short and fast speed gaines a rc nitrous oxide kit is excellent. Its very practical and works harmlessly. The only way it isnt practical is that over time it will wear your piston and sleeve.
www.jagrc.com . videos,pictures and everything you need for proof .
Originally posted by turbopower I typed a completely wrong set of numbers. It was "supposed" to be 1.850hp I guess thats what i get for posting on 9 forums at the same time. My bad.
On the next issue. A ported concept engine NOT RB Concepts is a highly modified .12 engine. Along with the engine i'm running a Jag R/C nitrous oxide kit. With modified gearing it's easy to hit 90mph . Don't try to accuse me of lying i know my stuff .
Like omg 100mph isnt fast for a moddy car anymore. Theres a micro rs4 that hits 133mph with a small turn brushelss motor.
A Yokomoa GT-4 rtr on-road racer hits 65mph out of the box completely stock .
Post a video Shure , if i had a digital camcorder. Buy me one and send it to me and i will :P
Nice try bud , have a nice day.
where is this "133 mph" micro at?
even the fastest 540 powered micros can only go about 80mp before it destroys it self.
i wanna see this micro, its faster than the current world record by cliff lett (sp?) of 111mph, and thats 1/10 scale with 24 batts.
I want to know what keeps a RC car from going 100+ mph. I dont know much about RC so be kind. I have been over a 100 in my car and i have like a 1 to 16 power to weight ratio ( at least). A RC car can have almost a 1 to 1 ratio. They have almost no frontal area for drag. They are also mm(s) from the ground so almost no air can get under them. If you had high enough gearing i dont see why it couldnt go that fast. Dont they have 3 spd trannys or something.
All im saying if you look at it scientificaly it should be very possible.
Also start being more mature and leave the R/C flaming for R/C forums.

Nothing is realy keeping them from going 100mph . The only problem is that when going that fast a little pepple,rock or bump could set it into an in air roll or spin .
Nitro r/c cars can optain 100mph pretty easily. All it takes is a semi powerful motor (all depends on the appl and size) and modded gearing. Electric cars need a small turn motor . Brushless motors are the new rage and are extremely powerfull. To power that powerful motor you need a nice set of high power batterys and a high quality esc to handle the power.
Watch the video nitroboy posted and you will see what 100mph looks like. Now remember that was a few years ago and before the insperation for the worlds fastest r/c car . I'm working on a super secret 1/5th scale project right now. and i'm hopin on entering it.

Not so secret anymore
Im guessing it will be gas powered if its 1/5 scale.
Obviously a brushless powered car with a few lipoly cells is going to win Too much money for me though, I was thinking of getting an S/T and putting a kontronik jazz 5-6-18 esc and twist 47 motor in it with maybe lipoly batteries. I am not willing to spend that much money on a motor, esc, batteries, and chargers however. A 1/8 brushless (on lipoly batteries) buggy would be badass. Like Craps and manty others on rcz..
