are your back wheels really lifting off the ground? i smell photoshop :spin::lol:

 

they can actually lift. they tighten the wheelie bar or anti roll bar in the case of fwd soo much that there is little weight on the rear wheels.

during the burnout the front tires grow in diameter. that can lift some more. and then the water pit can be the dip to have the tires right off the ground.

 

but having the wheelie bars down so far make the care very dangerous to drive since the wheelie wheel is typically plastic it doesnt hold traction very well!

Now that's thinking out of the boxer!:lol:

fyi all 05 + legacy's have built in code reader

ive thought about getting into those r/c cars. ive heard they can be crazy.

 

vicioussquirrel that looks like a LeMons rally cross :lol:

 

where are all the legacy racecars? i thought this was a racecar forum

 

the way my r/c sits right now i have a little over $500 in it. it will do close to 60mph and it can take a hell of a beating. i have hit one of the giant orange road cones doing close to full speed and it bounced and kept going. i have the 3.3 traxxas motor in it. a quart of nitro fuel cost about $11 though :eek:

Nope, the car has a wheelie bar that helps keep the front tires planted.

 

Now that you mention it, they do say that with a correct set up, as the slicks grow the back tires could lift off the track.

 

But they were talking about that happening at the top end when the wheel speed is high and the slicks grow.

 

I have more burnout pictures, I'll look closer to if any of them look that way.

 

None of the photo's are photo chopped, for one thing, I have no idea how to do that.

Not a real Racecar but it's pretty damn fast.

Now get a brushless motor and a LI-PO battery. Then it will be fast.

If you woke up today, you have another chance to do it right.

Before my '05 LGT daily driver, I had a '91 Mitsu Galant VR4, modded to 350WHP & 345 WTorque. I often took it to the road racing tracks to scare the EVO & STi boys.

 

Next, I got this fully prepped track car (but streetable) '88 944 Turbo Porsche which runs with $100K GT3 Porsches.

 

My LGT is slowly becoming a stealth demon!
