My wheelie-mobile (dual NiCd'd 350z)

Well, here is the dual cell 350z booster I modded last night. I am working on getting a vid up, but it is too dang big (file size wise). Man though, this thing does wheelies like you wouldn't believe. It will even do them just going forward boosted and not going reverse first. On with the pics! :D

BTW cabowabo, I would like this to be entered into the contest, and the mods are a dual cell, custom EM motor, and a re-routed antenna. I am probably going to pig-tail it tonight.

Everyone, just feel free to tell me what you think (I know the outer battery is pretty messy, but it was a pain in da poop to rig it up because of the fat wires I used).

if ya send me the file through MSN or ICQ or E-Mail if its smaller than 5mb I'll gladly post it for ya. I have 8 MB of space not being used. If you save it as an WMV its alot smaller file than avi

I have make my first Dualceller(last Year...i think November)also(with the Cell outside the body)...in Germany we hate it!
We don´t do Dualcellcars...we make Mosfet and put a 200Mah Cell into the Chassi or use a Polymer Cell with 4,2V!

But the Car is nice...and a Dualcellmod is very good for Wheelis!!

See that just illustrates the difference between American's, and German's way of thinking.

Germans known for their engineering, finesse the circuit to draw more current, the replace the battery with one that provides more juice. Keeping it looking stock, and controllable.

Americans on the other hand, sometimes don't understand the word finesse, but we understand more is better, so we just double the batteries up, paying no attention to size constraints, we'll figure out how to jam that in later, right now we just need to worry about MORE POWER! Muhhwahhahaha.

I try to be one who finesses, but you know I am an American, and do like power.

Gfunk, the reason your pulling wheelies so easy is because that battery is kinda hanging off the back a bit, move it forwards, and you'll be able to control your car better, or if wheelies are your thing, then have at it. :grin:

Thanks for all the comments. Ya, I wanted to do an external battery so I could pull some wheelies (also why I like hte battery far back =).

Here is a picture with my name and bitpimps that I also put in my contest entry post just a bit ago:
