This speed test was done with a Tamiya speed tester. The test car sports AWD, Carbon Fiber Drive Shaft, RS open bearings, Lithium Power, 4 FET Stack, and the new Nuke 130SM Super Modified Motor. http://video.atomicmods.com/Speed_Te...e_130SM_LG.wmv |

How about putting a screw in and not noticing it went through 3 wires? That took sometime to solder back on. I tried to get back into it a few days ago but I finally just said fawk it and went slot car racing.

Took a look at my xmod, and found it's tires to be about 1" in diameter. A liitle math later, I realized that 90mph with 1" tires means a tire RPM of 30,000. That is a helluva secondary driveline that can handle 30,000 RPM.  |

spinning your wheels on a KMA dyno wanna-be is a whole different thing then running down an actual course. I still have seen no proof of a fast xmod | |

There is now way in hell that a xmod will do 60 mph...the only way that will happen is if you throw it off a cliff or out of a car doing 60. Your starting to sound like Krawlin with his 30bps walmart paintball gun. There MIGHT be a hand full that can do 60 but there pretty much worthless at those speeds...cool but worthless

I simply can't imagine an xmod having the mass to provide enough traction to spin tires at that speed and keep itself on the ground. Still call bull****.

There is a vid of one on youtube doing 99 km/h (60mph) on a test stand, but as accurately stated by Harley, a Tamiya stationary stand is WORTHLESS in comparison to true ground speed. The stands don't begin to replicate ground resistance, and are pretty much just a fancy way of showing tire RPM in a low resistance scenario. A photo-tach could do the same thing.

I am not saying I haven't wanted to buy one before, I am just saying I don't believe the speed claims. Xmodification did a pretty cool blazer that made we want one again. |
