I guess I will leave this page up a little while longer, but really this must be considered ancient history! In 2003 when these "records" were set, over 60 was unheard of. With the wide availability of affordable brushless solutions, there are likely hundreds of Pede / Rustler owners who have "broken the barrier" by now. So here are some "hall of famers" but by no means the extent of those who are "in the club"
| Max Speed: |
63.5mph |
|
First
60+ run was 61.3mph with 12 GP3300 cells in stickpacks.
I now use a Lehner
5300, which is definitely faster, but I have not tried to
max it out.
