You said it Bob, not a bad speed at all for a pretty stock Holiday Buggy! Looks like a blast to drive while flicking it around on that asphalt! Hope all is well my friend! 😎👌👍
Thanks brother Mark.... This is just a fun buggy, something to muck about with... After all this, it will end up with the 380 motor back in it... It really don't need to be a rocket. However, bearing will be going into the BZ motor for the next video... Will they give me a few more MPH??
Cool man.....loads of these little buggers all over RUclips at the mo!🤣 They really are a superb performing car for what they are.....simple,unyet highly effective at what they do. They are in general also fairly tough,and easy to work on! As for the suoerstock family of motors.....they are my weapon of choice in most of my vintage Tamiya and kyosho models. I have many BZ,TZ and RZ.....with the RZ being my favourite as it's red!!😂 Lol,that was a joke.....I actually find the RZ slightly faster, and it sounds devine! The red bell end is just a bonus....😂🤣😅 Good speed there mate about what I was expecting! 👍 👍 👍
Thanks Master Yoda.... Sorry I forgot to comment on this, Till now....I have a few 27 turn stock motors faster than any Super Stock (23 T) but not much beats those old "tuned" stock motors from yesteryear.. I have a stock motor that's 27 turns (silver can winding) with fixed 24 degrees of timing, free spin @ 30,000 rpm. Yes, the RZ is the fastest motor in the Super Stock class, I think it's the lay down brushes, as they add more timing that way and they stay in phase a bit longer (charge the segments longer). The RZ is one I have not had in me hands yet.
Thanks, it's a school parking lot but we are not really allowed to run RC vehicles there... I get away with it cause I'm old (way over 50), I don't make a mess, I pick up after myself and I don't bash RC usually, or try not to.. We do speed runs there and one time, we did some touring car racing there...
Dom and I tried the usual spot but it is freshly paved but blocked off for now so we will try and run again this weekend. But that guy there is ripping around pretty good
Oh they paved the parking lot? SWEET!!!!! now it's gonna be dolphin smooth.... LOL Thanks for the view man, it's not too bad for what the buggy is... Will adding bearings the the BZ motor give me more MPH???
@UncleBobsRC I'm saving my free time for the MF01x runs. I would have loved to jump in, but there just wasn't enough time. I'm certainly spectating / scouting possible contenders.
@@Paul__FC That motor in that chassis is gotta be like the door open on a UH-1H and the pilot rolls to the left and all ya see is ground (been there, done that)... That too is a "by the seat of your pants" moment!!!!
Hey Bob, well what did you know, while watching the Holiday Buggy running, I said to myself, about 25-26mph as a guess 😊😊and there it is! I was spot on! 😂😊😂best wishes to you and the family 😊😊
@@UncleBobsRC oh yes and stick some bearing oil on the bearings or even team-zx1 micro oil, makes the friction less, perfect for bearing, I reckon +2 / +3mph on the 26mph and depending on the battery, perhaps hitting the magical 30mph. Let me know how you get on 😎🖐️😉
Strange, both the TZ & BZ are spec'd with the same RPM..... I wonder if adding bearings to the motor will yield a higher top speed... That's the next video....
@@UncleBobsRC I now wonder if my speedrun strip was too short. Also, it's possible it was 25.49 and so 25. Tire size can be a factor. Anyway 1 mph here and there, not to worry. If you were at 30, that would be an issue for my result 🧐🤝
@@coygtrc Hi Gabe, I'm just doing this for fun, and will be working my way back to the 380 motor the buggy came with... As for the motors, both the BZ & TZ boxes say 26,500 rpm at 7.2 volts, not sure what Tamiya used for the number but even Nicads or NiMh packs charge to over 8 volts... So, that's why I test at 7.4V to 7.5V try to be fair for all types of batteries other than A123 cells (6.6V). Lets not forget motor age, brush wear, brush material, comm wear and bushing condition, All play into speed & efficiency. As for the spot you run at, as you get faster, your going to want/need more room... Room to get up to full speed and room to slow down/stop.. As you see, the lot I'm at is almost long enough to go full throttle for about a second then I'm on the binders... and i the grass... LOL
I'm excited I have an rz motor coming in for my mf01x and it'll be my first upgrade motor. Also have bearings for my first time. Good run!
RZ is the fastest Super Stock Tamiya make now (I think)... That should be a wild ride.... I'll be waiting to see that... Gave ya a sub....

the place is really nice for rc bashing and relaxing too

@@UncleBobsRC well I Should Have said sealed.
@@madmustangrc214 That works too.....
Nice run, Bob. Get after it!
Thanks Paul.... Where's your run didn't say something about a 3.5T brushless motor?

@@JF-RC I will have a video of it.......
Not bad at all! 26mph is a very respectable speed!!!
Thanks dude!!! Next I'll put bearings in the BZ motor and try again, after that, back to the Paradox Pro stock motor...
Not bad at all. Nice run.
Thanks Trey.... How's things?
@@UncleBobsRC Conserving energy for Meredith’s revision surgery in a few months. Lots of kits and fun, just enjoying the moments.
@@All_RC_Fun Man more? Poor kid, my heart goes out to you brother and the family!!!!
26 is pretty dang good Bob!👍😊
Thanks man, next step is to put bearings in the motor and try again, after that, I'll put the Paradox Pro Stock motor back in...
Nice speed, faster than my TZ 🥵 😁

NICE👍car！what'spinion？
Hey, thanks for watching!!! The buggy is using a 17 tooth pinion on every 540 size motor I tested it with..
