fast?

[gunslinger686]

I have a [ofna ultra gt lx] and i want 2 know how fast can a buggy go?
......... why dose [kyosho inferno mp7.5 2/3 kit] cost so much Is it fast?
My buggy is an on road set up, it looks fast but my firends [mamoth]is faster,
my buggy is stock and my budget is low

[ZANDOR]

It all depends on what mill you put in it!! My self i have a pcr w a ws711 in it and it runs around 45mph. i had a cop clock it with his radar gun at 38 but my clutch was slipping bad.and he said he couldn't get a good lock on it at the time

[gunslinger686]

a firend had the same buggy as mine. its all hoped-up, it was doing about 70mph
it beat a [traxxas 4-tec] in a drag race! til he smash it into a wall krunch

[ZANDOR]

70 HUH

I questioned that too, but upon re-reading his post, I realized that he wasn't claiming it went 70 MPH, but instead it was doing about 70 feet.
Now I believe it.

[pissant]

ohh. ok, yea i can see that happening, but i wonder what engine he was running in it??

[Rolex]

Not a very good one, if it only ran 70 feet.

[gunslinger686]

he had some O.S engine

[jon2]

what gearing did he have? two speed? Engine model?

Re-Look, he did say MPH! 70mph in a buggy?? Better have a second gear!! I find it hard to beleive though!

I was asking when I posted this.

I think that posting without hardcore proof is very unlikely that this happened.Been said many times. I have a buggy and 70 mph doesn;t seem likely with a 13t CB single speed ( I am guessing as this a standard )

I think that Woody and all of us are saying ...SHOW US THE PROOF!!!

He edited it. Check post #6. It's a quote from the original. 70 MPH? No way.

[psunitro]

Yeah it may look fast but 70 MPH is FAST. My stock Storm buggy can take my Rustler in a drag race,but only b/c it has better traction. And the Rustler will do between 45-48MPH.I would say a hopped up bugggy will do around 60MPH,then more speed will run into the big $$$$. A 4-tec will do around 60 MPH BTW. Just my

we did not get a cop to clock it but it did beat 4-tec in drag race .he had velcro around the batteries and they came out at full speed :rolleyes:
