Great PB on the first speed runs 94 is fast ... Not to badly damaged for that speed ✌🤠👍 Having Fun Laughing Playing and RCing 🙏 Stay Safe and Play Healthy Josh and Mrs. 🏁💯🏁
Duuude, that beast rips! Bummer about the lid-skid..looked cool though! Pretty decent plastic..that grind sesh almost gave your ride a sun roof/drop top😂..triple digits are on deck for sure..time to go Plaid🤣🔥🤘
In the fast-running RC car genre, it seems like you always have to be nervous because even the slightest mistake in the control can cause the car to shatter. This is a great video.👍👍👍
Just to share some info on the battery monitoring thing that spektrum has. I haven't used it specifically but I have flown fpv drones for years. When I first started flying I used a voltage alarm but pretty quickly just stopped and went to just flying on a timer. The reason is in a high powered drone (similar to these cars) you draw so many amps when you are on the throttle hard that it will always alarm but those are just momentary drops in voltage and when you ease back on throttle you then get a better picture of what the pack voltage actually is. Long story short of you pay attention to the alarm and just stop when it goes off you are leaving lots of voltage left in the pack and aren't likely getting anywhere close to an actual low voltage situation. You'll get more useful info just throwing a voltage checker on the balance leads real quick when you bring the car back and it's at rest. The spektrum system is likely to just yell at you all the time and make you feel like you are needing to stop when it's not necessarily an issue.
My tear glands flinched as it took to the sky. I'm glad the damage was mostly cosmetic even though that body iiiiissss SMOOTH!(I heard a young barista gal use "smooth" Saturday morning. I guess SPANK has finally fallen out of fashion). That crash did trim out your wing for more speed for ya😄. Thanks for another great video! It was awesome to see Nicole again. What a fun wife.🙂
Jeeesus! What a „ground to ground rocket“! 94… Good idea,to stand in the loading platform from the gladiator… If it hit’s you in the shin, it‘s broken… 😳Nice Build… 👍👍👍Scratches? 😮Don‘t worry about it! Only on the shelf the RC Car doesn’t get scratches… (But also only if your wife does not dust there…😂)
Nice runs minus the one. You should be able to get most of the scratches out the body using car headlight repair kit. Lots of sanding and a good polish, scratches all gone! I'm waiting for warmer weather to break out my limitless this spring.
I always feel the same pain myself. I keep 2 bodies for each of my runners. Ironically, I still feel it when I damage a running body & always doctor it back to good shape.
@@josephmorelli3191 that's spam. They are trying to steal your money. Josh doesn't do any give aways on here. If you look, this fake account responded to everyone!
You most definitely need a much longer road for this! Ease into the throttle over a longer distance, you should be continuing to accelerate as the car passes your location. You will hear the car noises dip, then steadily increase all the way to terminal velocity, kinda sounds like "shifting gears". Your short road forces you to go full throttle too soon, and then brake early so as not to run out of road, no room for top out. Hope this makes sense. 🍻
You can always do what I do and just add a sheet of carbon fiber overlay to the roof. Not only does it look good but it helps keep the roof saved and if you do scrape the carbon you just peel it off and put another piece LOL
Everytime I make a slick body with all the right paint and looks killer...I have no self control and put way to big of brushless and first run she's war torn for life 😂 good thing I like beaters lol
Im looking for a new hobby and I might try RC cars. Found this Arrma RC and liked it, that’s how I found your video which was great by the way. Can you or anyone else looking at this comment let me know if or how can I get a different body for this particular model? The “pickup truck” looks cool but it’s not my favorite looking body. Once again, thanks for the video!
Man that’s a bummer.. nice road though, inside wasn’t even dirty but that seam in the road caught the lip during breaking? If it matters enough to you, the roof can be wetsand & buffed even by hand with the correct items and clear gorilla epoxy will mend your body crack. Just use clear tape on the outside and stand the body upright so the epoxy can self level and stay as a little pool above the crack until it hardens. You’ll be good.
Might be worth dialing out that toe-in on the rear wheels, rear toe-in is to make your turning more responsive, something not really needed for a speed run. so your needlessly scrubbing the rear tyres and adding drag.
Yeah, so true. I have some very mean manholes out in front of my house. I can hit them going one way but if you hit going the other….goodbye r/c. I know from experience.
If you're still running on 6s, people have found the Spektrum 8s 160A esc bolts right in. Granted you may fry the motor eventually but you should blast past 100mph with no issues.
@@HarleyDesignsInc I saw one guy running the stock setup and a 150c battery and hit 97.5mph. Another tooth or 2 on the pinion should help your top speed. I'd be very interested to see you crest 100mph. Keep up the awesomeness!
I thought in the video you said you was putting a link to the wireless mic your using in the video hooked up to the GoPro media mod… I’m really new to all this an I think a mic would really help my quality PLEASE HELP……
@@HarleyDesignsInc I guess I missed that I remember seeing it now but it didn’t click I guess lol…. So the cable that it comes with plugs right into the media mod for the GoPro? I have a hero 10 an like I said I think it’s time to step up the audio quality
@@HarleyDesignsInc I really appreciate you getting back to me so fast an thanks for all the content… love this smart build I’m working on doing something similar on my channel tho I’m gonna use the 3s infraction as my platform with all smart technology by spektrum just see exactly what I can come up with maybe even grab some attention from the guys at horizon lol…. Thanks again my friend
@@HarleyDesignsInc speedrunning seems to be a risky business. Those cars spend more time on their roofs then most crawlers... while doing speeds illegal outside of Germany or the Isle of Man.
Just watched an Israelian on YT do 200 and it's ridiculous! His channel is Raz something. The next body might should be one of those crazy looking carbon fiber aero one's.
I got myself one of those radios and am seriously less than impressed. Lame telemetry display. Why are you using the satellite speedo? Why not use the one in the radio? that body's really really cool. temps should be on the telemetry too..Ironic I found this link in an email sent to me from Spektrum RC. Maybe cuz you have that radio and the stickers all over the car, yet you're not using the radio to it's fullest. Again, I'm really bummed about buying that radio. Sorry Spektrum, but my 11-12 year old radio I got with my Losi Ten-T and also came with my Losi 8IGHT 2.0 buggy is way better as far as telemetry display goes. All displayed on one screen. Speed, Temp, and voltages. They dropped the transmitter ball in my opinion.
Boring. Do 94 on a road course over 6 minutes, and I'll be entertained. This reminds me of how primodial men are massively entertained by loud fireworks. BOOM! You love it. You don't know why, it's stupid, but you can't get enough. It's primitive. You say you love F1. Is it because one team dominates, and it's uncompetitive? Kinda like an M80 exploding? BOOM! Done. Shocking, and easy to understand, maybe. Do more, Josh. Elevate. Bring your followers upward.
I get 89 with my 27tooth v2 infraction out the box.. u spent all that money to go a couple miles an hour faster waste of money but I guess some people are rich and can spend that when they fix it after it's broken
Almost all the upgrades I made outside of the electronics had nothing to do with speed. The electronics were given to me just to play with the SMART tech. This is basically the same as stock. So not sure why yours is slower 😁
I don't think 89 mph is slow+ u spent more on everything & no upgrades on mine you spent more money than me I don't have side skirts or fender Wells or
@@mikelester5524 the money spent on those extras weren’t even for speed, just style, strength and cleanliness. I’d assume anyone should be able to get over 90 with a stock one of these without really trying.
I need to get back to that airstrip...
That crash hurt my soul!!!! I almost couldn’t watch it knowing there was a crash to come, Joe did an amazing job on it!!
You need a Knight Rider body for that thing. With the sound it makes, would totally be awesome with a kitt body with the working red led.
Last time I tried to get an RC to go fast I ended up having one less RC.
Definitely my concern with going this fast!! If I had access to a runway, I think I’d be addicted.
@@HarleyDesignsInc can’t help you with runway. All I have is a mountain.
I like “toys for boys rc” builds bcs he hooks the cars up with these insane mods. He’s always doing something out of the ordinary.

That was a fun watch! I could see myself going down that rabbit hole next after seeing that. Thanks.... I think?
Such a beautiful car. Moose killed it...
And then Josh did it too. (Almost)
I love the look, and I’ll run it until it’s too far gone to be reasonable. But yeah what a fun time it’s been.
@@HarleyDesignsInc watching that made me go back and watch the trx6 speed runs.. every now and then, ya just have to go fast.
Yessssir! Good stuff, it happens when you get into speed runs… Gotta stay in the throttle a little longer on the top end! 👍🏾💯
At these speeds I need to start hunting for even better spots to run.
Evin with the scratches still looks amazing. Like a real race car now. That was awsome
Those scratches hurt, but now I won’t feel too bad next time.
My God the sound of it flying past 👍

Nice Josh!
3:53 I got some extra Xpel when I got my car wrapped……works great on R/C bodies too😎
That first crash, ALWAYS hurts! 😉😂
Awesome 🤘🧇🤘
Love the body
Nice runs minus the one.

Each time I see this I want to build the Viper and go for triple digits
Car looks awesome. Even with the scratches. Maybe try a more streamline body for that last 6mph. Good luck.
Still nice looking build . Nice clean runs. Great video
I always feel the same pain myself. I keep 2 bodies for each of my runners. Ironically, I still feel it when I damage a running body & always doctor it back to good shape.

I am also getting the speed run bug! It is just so crazy to see a RC going that fast
Awesome video.. now this is on my list to build next.. 100mph rc
Looks fun. Bitty Designs makes a great looking Lambo body for it.......he may even paint one for you.
😮Car sounds like a jet going by. Mine only hit 84. I haven't played around with the opinion yet.

Slider ain't bad, glad you stand on your truck.most think they have crash proof legs. Keep on trying.
Very cool. It’s just battle damage to prove it’s as fast as it is.
Great build, good run.👍 sorry for the body.😱
So dope. An thats all stock. Maybe a sleeker body for 100mph run
I think I can hit the 100 mark with this body, but that could be bad luck to say!! I need to get the limitless running now I guess!
Don't think I have anything goes that fast! Except an old XTM brushless 6s capable truggy but havnt dared run it over 3s! 🤣👍
Moosejaw time to paint up another body lol. 94mph is impressive. I bet your heart sank when you seen it on its roof. I know mine did.
Sick 🏁🏁👍😃,. Some times I put some gorilla tape on the tops of my body for protection,then take it off right after. It's saved a lot of body's.
Upgraded bearings will help a ton. Sucks you busted that body up. Maybe time for a delta plastic gt body lol.
You can inhibit the warning alarms in the controller.
Looks like it’s 3d printing time.. get that 120
Shoegoo adhesive and some nylon sheetrock tape to repair that broken left front fender and sand and polish as good as new.
Man it's always crazy to me to see all these nice upgrades but the same poop stock electronics 🤣Great video though!
I think ii just found my next rc to buy n tinker around a with
Get Nicole a stabilizer or tripod. The video was good. Out here making us want to go 100+
You can always do what I do and just add a sheet of carbon fiber overlay to the roof. Not only does it look good but it helps keep the roof saved and if you do scrape the carbon you just peel it off and put another piece LOL
More GTRRMA

"Influencers in the wild" 😂 great video thanks for bringing us along! Who was flying the drone?
He Flew it to position and it stays In Hover on its own
With the body rash now its a race car.
Black vinyl wrap on the roof... scratches gone!
It sounds like the millennium Falcon when it slows down lol. Also Battle scars always suck lol
You should be using an old body for that. :)

Proline has the most body options for the Infraction platform. They usually state what kind of body mounting modifications are required as well.

not that bad

DJI Mini Pro 3
Might be worth dialing out that toe-in on the rear wheels, rear toe-in is to make your turning more responsive, something not really needed for a speed run. so your needlessly scrubbing the rear tyres and adding drag.
That’s interesting, not sure I’ve seen the parts to adjust that on this platform. I’ll look into it.
Great runs I think you’ll get that 100 mark very soon with more runway , was the first airborne was that hitting a manhole ? It seemed quite sudden.
Yeah, so true. I have some very mean manholes out in front of my house. I can hit them going one way but if you hit going the other….goodbye r/c. I know from experience.
If you're still running on 6s, people have found the Spektrum 8s 160A esc bolts right in. Granted you may fry the motor eventually but you should blast past 100mph with no issues.

Looks good but surely you knew you was gonna tear it up chasing speed
Going off of your motor temp after a bunch of high speed pulls you should be able to add 1-3 teeth on the pinion. Don't forget the cat toy next time 😂
Completely agree, I’ll go up on the pinion and send it again.

Good thing sbg wasn't driving!
DAMMIT!! I thought you had it bro, so close but yet so far away. The last 6mph to pick up is gonna be a bitch with speeds like that
Better upgrade the wing to titanium... and the hood, roof..... At least you get nice sparks if it lands on it's roof again 😂😂
Right!! I put the titanium skids on the bottom for the cool sparks, turns out it was the wrong side!
@@HarleyDesignsInc speedrunning seems to be a risky business. Those cars spend more time on their roofs then most crawlers... while doing speeds illegal outside of Germany or the Isle of Man.
94 is insanely fast for a car that's essentially stock. Body damage definitely a bummer though.
You called it a Pro-Line body fyi
Proline, Protoform… same company, same owners 🤷🏻♂️😁 I always forget to say Protoform when talking about it.
Moosejaw isn’t gonna be happy with you. Lol
If you don't have a little road rash, can you even say you are RCing?
Bodies are just for protecting the expensive electronics.
Just watched an Israelian on YT do 200 and it's ridiculous! His channel is Raz something. The next body might should be one of those crazy looking carbon fiber aero one's.
Raz Shiffrin is the guy. They do pretty amazing speeds, and I'm very jealous of that runway they have. I think I'd be addicted if I had that runway!
Those aren't the batteries to use for speed runs.. Go with packs made for speed runs and you won't have battery warnings
You need to roll into the throttle easier
More aerodynamic body......🤷♂️
You’re only trying for 100 mph ?? That’s Easy
Just polish it with plastic polish. Easy
The first is always the worst. At least it has street cred now. Nobody can call it a shelf queen.
