v8 under the hood

Bought and can't resist installing it. So far I've clearances the motor plat and tranny housing


Hoping the 56 32p gear reaches cause this is as close as it get. May need a 60 to reach . Was planning to run 14 56 gears the duratrax 56 is on the way. Got a clearance the skudplate and link mount to clear to.



1406 neuhmotor.

That is more like a blown big block!

[evan03]

Lol. Thanks. Just a 2100 kV motor

It fits now. Tranny is shimmed and skid plate clearances right to the control arm


Spur gear should be here Thursday or Friday. Also have a 65c 3cell on the way as well as a pule of 4cell 2200s already on handling

Looks like that's going to be a good time.

[ik632]

Looks like fun. Do you have upgraded gears and driveshafts yet?

[Pabust]

Your stock chassis is going to turn into a pretzel

[evan03]

I dunno. All depends on voltage I'm running

Got bored waiting on the 32p 56 spur.


ESC and motor are mounted and ESC us programmed. Planned in mounting the go pro on the new top but u can't looks to good. Now liijung at hacking the rear of the cage off

66 32p spire
Going to turn it down a fuzz to clear the yoke


Had to figure a way to spin it kinda true


Shaved a little off in this pic. Going to need a little more its so tight the yoke and spur assembly have to be assembled at the same time. I have to shave a little more because the drive line angle is just about flat. A tall wraith would already clear.

well it took alot of time but it now clears and im realy dign this motor esc combo. 2 cell crawls pretty dang slow with little to no cogging 3 cell has a hint more cog and has tons of pep on the trigger but isnt teriably fast though i cant seem to pull a full throttle run in the living room

couple more pics of how it turned out. i will say the 66 32p gear is way to big for this thing. but night be whats making it so drivable i may mess with pinion gears to come up with something like this that fits without scraficeing tooth strengh. i had to take off way more then i thought to get it to fit imbetween the yoke and shaft.





so far im prealy impressed with the turnigy track star 150. i bought the programing card wich makes it very tuneable. im running just under 100% drag brake and have punch control turned all the way up. ive got timing set at 0. ran it for about 10 minutes amazed at how well 3 cell crawls and also doing speeds passes in the living room id say the esc isnt any warmer then room temp and motor the same.

heres a quick vid this is 3 cell 2200 lipo
