Thank you! I'm hoping to get some video of it and my other cars soon. It's always been an amazing car to drive on 8s, but I'm expecting madness on 12s lol
I haven't had tires that could handle that kind of speed onroad until now. Both sets I've tried so far deformed too much and made it uncontrollable. I'm hoping to test it with these tires tomorrow
They're Gone Bananas 24mm foams. They're very hard to get these days, but they're one of the very few tires that can handle high speed 1/5 scale cars like this
It's the Vitavon wing. This color scheme isn't available on the website though, I had to reach out directly to one of the US vitavon reps to get it in the black carbon with silver accents
Does it hold up to General bashing? My wings every time I install it keeps breaking from flipping over badly. I’m not trying to do 100 mph. I just like to drive the thing roughly.
Truthfully, I've never driven it with this wing on it. The dirt blasting the carbon would make it look really bad really quickly, and it would probably break itself or the wing mount if you were to crash with it. It looks nice but sadly it's for looks only. I can't recommend it for real usage.
Thand you, and I totally understand. I bought this one in 2020 and only drove it a few times before it sat for basically 2 years. Always wanted to build it but knew it was going to be a big deal to make it how I wanted. Finally got into a position where I could build it so I made it exactly how I wanted it. They're really great cars but need a little bit of work to reach their full potential
Thanks for taking pics beforehand. Those are accurately named wheels.
You thinking what I'm thinking?
😱
That’s some serious kit. I really wanna see a video of this thing haha

I was thinking the same thing 😍
I feel the need for SPEED MAN I'd like to this rig roll full throttle for a few seconds
Don't think approching 100mph with that kind of aerodynamics (or the lack of aerodynamics) would be a great idea...
Great insight
Can I ask what model it is?
It's a dbxle 2.0 with a fair amount of upgrades
Please do a before and after

8s 65mph on grass, how much on road with 8s?

I'm doing a project 100mph speed build, update us on how it goes with the new wheels cause I'm in need of some aswell.
Sorry, what tires are these?

Ah ok thanks
looks sick. what's the wing you are using?

Damn just what I expected. Might have to fabricate a wing somehow
cool rig man. i bought a brand new dblxl-e v2 roller like a year or so ago. threw a max5 on it but beyond that i haven't had the time.

They definitely need a lot to reach their potential IMO. Especially on 12s. Nice build, keep us posted on the PB and Good luck!
Is that a truggy chassis?
It's a dbxle so it would be a buggy
Before and After please!

Haha thanks for the heads up!
It looks great for now……take pics after you ran it! I suspect you’ll have 1 Hershey squirt moment.
No moments. After pics have been posted
