Traxxas Spartan 67.2 mph run

[SoFlaSpartan]

im so disappointed that I didn't get to see a 70mph Spartan. That's what I was building mine for and Im currently in the high 50's range....This would've given me more motivation to push forward, but now Im back to reality and giving up on my Spartan and building a Genesis.

Just some advise brother, try not to go on forums and claim crazy $hit, all the way to include "I have the fastest Spartan anywhere" and "Im going to offer 3 stages of performance upgrade kits"........just makes you look foolish and nullifies any credibility you were trying to build on here. Look at some of your posts where you say things like "I got video to back up my claims" and whatnot....ridiculous man. Now you got you tail between your legs and whimpering for no reason. Use the vast knowledge on here to improve yourself and the hobby...not the other way around. I wish you success with your Spartan from one Spartan owner to another!

And to piggyback on what some have said about the SOUND of the motor in the video.....on his youtube link, I clicked his username and saw his other 3 Spartan videos....If you guys watch the one that's the oldest (I think it said uploaded a few weeks ago) in the VERY VERY beginning when he first throttles it up, she screams for a second but then he lets off and won't get full on it anymore....but his description says that video was on stock motor. Anybody else hear that or is it just me?

That was stock just bigger prop I had the x645 On it. When I ran it the other day it had the X440 On it. I just had more room to get it going.if you know anything about itI sold my stock motor as soon as I got my other motor in I sold my stock motor and es si for $150.so yes that was a hundred percent stock except for the cooling on the engine and the bigger cooling lines running 6 s

as soon as my other problems and I'm going to take it out and run it at the same place I ran that time and you'll see if there's a difference between a stock and the modified setup.

Hey powerboat do you have any videos of yours running?

[Zackthrills]

And the ass end of that boat looks nice all chromed out. ? Do the extra two trim tabs really help stabilize the boat from waking all over the place

The inner tabs make all the difference in my opinion

[Zackthrills]

Ya I saw that I'm just going to get a true gps like you got and get this other prop back on it and run it again. Its got to have more power them what I'm getting I also think I don't have a long enough straight away. I'm going to go back to my friends house in his back yard

Don't get discouraged Z. It's a trial and error thing. It takes patience to get everything to work in harmony.
