Was bored so figured I'd see what my WheelyKing could take lmao
I put a 20turn pushed by a 4200mAh 6cell w/stock esc.

Was much faster than stock but still a little boring.
I like going fast and I think the WK might have been a bad choice for me.
So I figured lets really see what it can handle.

Figuring on all this power lowering it would be a good idea so the integy shocks went on it.
Was a very good idea lol

On to the bad news
the transmission is weak (hardened aluminum tranny gears on the way)
Shafts are made of a soft plastic compound and dont hold up puting in t-maxx shafts)

I heard the diffs were weak but upgradable but I'll worry about that at a later point when they **** out.
I'll estimate the speed at 35mph+ easy
Hard for me to get a good vid since I have to drive and film at the same time lol
