Nice paintjob👍 since it's herbie i'm sure you're going to dominate the class after some whacky adventures😂😅😬 I have a very similar setup, 8 turn motor 16tooth pinion... Got 29 out of it. Now i'm waiting for the speedgear Set...
@@jonthomas8487 something to consider, does the 5 slot rev up to 30,000? Remember the stock torque tuned is 3 slot at 25t and 16,000 rpm. This Tops out 14mph. Check my last video for more details.
Awesome beetle 😉💪🤍❤️💙
@@Fortes_RC_Adv thank you ☺️
Hey Luke! that is a great looking chassis, and pretty impressive speed with the brushed setup too! nice.
@@hybrid32494 thank you so much 😊
Nice shake down and a respectable speed especially with the stock 16 tooth pinion.
@@jack-o-trades thank you man, yours is a missile though. 👊
Great start👍
@@RCBirds thank you
Welcome to the fun! 🏁 Best challenge in town 😉
@@rc_michi thank you 😊
Great first iteration.
@@All_RC_Fun Thank you 😊
Nice run!
@@powersmodelgarage thank you
Nice first run with it! I saw the scrapes on the roof, that kind of stinks!
@@AddamsPlayground Howdy friend, it was a hairy drive for sure. I think i need more practice. 😆
Nice run and great paint job! Good luck.
@@AlToneTech thank you man
Nice, 8turn should rock. Tem GPS seem pretty good. Runs great bud. 27 solid on stock brushed.. thanks for sharing. Let the fun begin ..
@@reitplace4765 thanks for watching 28mph wasn’t half bad
Love the car! Good luck! See ya on the board!🤜🤛
@@Rcprescription thank you so much 😊
Hey that is good for brushed 👍 Great vid and good luck in the contest 😁
@@PeteWylieRC truly appreciate you buddy. 😊
nice! good job luke, good start.. my first official will be this weekend... good luck!
@@KillerMiniFPV best of luck to you too. Thanks friend
Very cool! Love the body and it's a pretty good speed out of it.
@@FastFreddyRC thank you buddy. Happy Summer.👍
@@LukesVintageRC Best of luck! I just got mine finished for the challenge but still have the body to go...hoping to get a run in before the weekend!
Got nice speed for a brushed 🙏 and still a lot of things you can improve. Well done 👏
@@electricnitrorc hey thanks. I’m just trying not to destroy Herbie.😆
@LukesVintageRC I understand your feelings about the body. Luckily, my beetle already took a lot of abuse 🙂
Nice 1st run, love the body 😊✌🤝
@@coygtrc thank you buddy
definitely go brushless.. that thing will hit 60 easily and much faster with enough space
@@IntegraDIY Im gonna stay with brush motor. Thanks though
Great passes, Luke. 28 mph is a solid baseline. Add some gearing and a little luck, and you'll be in the 40's before you know it!
@@poorboysrc Hey thanks Fil, I think you are absolutely correct. I’m going to need a lot of luck to not crash too. Awesome challenge! 😊
Nice paintjob👍 since it's herbie i'm sure you're going to dominate the class after some whacky adventures😂😅😬
I have a very similar setup, 8 turn motor 16tooth pinion...
Got 29 out of it. Now i'm waiting for the speedgear Set...
@@rc_tom I think if I upgrade the wheels like you I’d be 29 too. Thanks and happy summer
Nice build. Where did you buy the motor? And did you do any modifications to the steering?
I would maybe do a smaller battery to reduce a little weight.. but as i understand it the smaller batteries also give a slight higher output?
Could you please share the link where you buy it? And a tutorial with the assembly
@@joeljoel12428 hi, all information is in previous video. Thanks 😊
@@LukesVintageRC link?
eBay I’d in video and description
By chance is that 8T a 5-slot vs a regular 3-Slot? If so it would be equal to around a 21T 3-slot

@@LukesVintageRC nope, 5 slot is slower
That motor will brake the gears....
