That's fast.

**jcpede** · 02-21-2016, 05:15 PM

That's awesome that's probably the greatest feeling that you have a 160 mph slash.

**FROSTYEYE** · 02-21-2016, 05:56 PM

Wait 160 degrees Fahrenheit or Celsius? Just joking, awesome run! Look forward to your 200 mph car!

**magnum500sw** · 02-22-2016, 07:49 AM

You should show us what's under the body. So many questions . X01 tires ? Ceramic bearings ? Hope to see more vids too .

**phildogg** · 02-22-2016, 05:34 PM

Deltaplastik jaguar body. motor is secret for now 2016 looks to be a fast year and to stay competitive have to hide.. but thanks to all who like it.. amazing truck.. was my basher till one day i decided to speed run it and never looked back..

**JayDee63** · 02-22-2016, 06:35 PM

I get it. Just keep posting updates. It is a cool project nonetheless.

**El Sob** · 02-22-2016, 07:28 PM

Congratulations on your new record! That bad boy is an absolute beast! That is twice as fast as my fastest Slash 4x4!

**MiniElmo** · 02-24-2016, 10:46 AM

I was thinking the same thing.
That would be like a very bad gout pain.

Congrats! At that kind of speed how do you make steering adjustments?

Congrats Phil!!!! Write down all info after you do the rozza run! Lol

**phildogg** · 02-24-2016, 05:29 PM

I'm waiting on my replacement grp now.. thanks all .. Yes i make steering adjustment when needed but usually it tracks really straight at speed.

Milt i can give you a guaranteed setup if you want..

**Miltdoggie** · 07-21-2016, 09:21 PM

Phil, do you change tires often? Seems as if I always rip these grp tires.

**Cipher_Jones** · 07-21-2016, 11:24 PM

WOW.

**2Slashdad** · 07-22-2016, 05:37 AM

Holy cow, do you use a gyro to keep it straight? Sure would like to see under the hood there buddy!

**billy-bones** · 07-22-2016, 11:08 AM

Rock on good sir!!!!!

**tallj2000** · 07-22-2016, 11:20 AM

Did you name it the shin buster. That's awesome

**fourdub** · 07-22-2016, 06:01 PM

you broke scale speeds of sound - mach .50!

"For a 3.5” 15K RPM disk, this works out to just under 160 MPH. Since Mach 1 -- the speed of sound at standard temperature and pressure -- is roughly 760 miles per hour, that's just 0.21 Mach, well below the roughly .8 Mach threshold where transonic effects raise their ugly heads.Jan 24, 2014"

that's also random internet garble... and your tires are taller.. lol

nice run man. "woosh"

**phildogg** · 07-22-2016, 08:13 PM

Thanks guys. under the hood is a xl2 and a big cordova research motor.. I run bananna skinz foam tires. alot of people like bsr purple. I haven't ran any yet but plan to soon. :-)

**El Sob** · 07-22-2016, 08:19 PM

Man! That thing is insane! That is twice as fast as the fastest truck that I have ever built! You keep setting the bar higher and higher

**Miltdoggie** · 07-22-2016, 09:02 PM
