Yeah, one's here for servicing (turns out the li-pos were overdischarged by the owner or the charger wasn't cutting the mustard). I only wish I owned both. Here's a vid of mine breaking the xmod 0-60 record on a speedchecker:

OK umm I saw the vid 3 times, still don't get it. Does it go 0-60 so fast that nothing happens?

if you watch the dyno it says 100 for a brief moment.
Also if you READ the bottom he explains everything about the numbers in there.

Ahh, didn't see the explanation below, just clicked the link. That being said, I think just to see this power in action it would be nice to see a vid of this ride on the road. Nice work Viper.

That will be very soon, just in a school hallway, not on the road. A cop's coming into our health class for the next 2 days, so I'm gonna ask him if he's willing to bring a radar gun and be there at lunch (he has to see classes he needs to visit before and after lunch anyway).

Finally. There are still a few problems, but 1 of them cannot be fixed. It ran for the first time on the street tonight, and I was getting the rearend loose at 30 with no more than 1/3 throttle.
As Ezra Dyer wrote in this month's Automobile about the SL65's tires, "They're not just bringing a knife to a gunfight, they're bringing a pair of left-handed safety scissors to a nuclear war."

Well, bad news: it won't be running for a little bit. It managed to destroy the bevel AGAIN.
What Servo?

Mind my ignorance but I would like to put hobby grade electronics in my evo. What servo/reciever did you use? I am thinking of using an associated quantam in my evo. But I am not sure how to configure the servo to make it steer properly. Xmods seem to make a good rolling chassis when they are all gpm'd up.

Can I dig up a 2 year old thread too ?
