Ha yeah it amazing how well the bushes stop it in its tracks without damage. Many thanks indeed for your great comments 😁👍

Hey Pete, stop calling me Shirley!!! 🤣🤣 Hell man, I feel your pain on that car park, looked like a right pig to keep in line on that rough and loose surface, but good on you for not giving up! I called that last run at 52 before the meter kicked in, not a bad guess and many congrats for beating your PB. It's definitely not easy getting these cars to go fast on the roads we have available, the car park we use up here ain't much better than where you are running... Rob and I even took a broom last time to try and get some gravel off our runway! Anyway, great stuff, mate, have a smashing weekend, you deserve that beer! 😎👌👍

Hiya mate. Ooh I've just watched your vid too and to be honest I'm not really sure what I can do that you haven't tried already. With the brushless I guess I could put the maximum gearing on but I still don't think I could get it much quicker in the areas I know. I did notice that the car park you use looked a bit rough too. I have an idea which I will pitch to Fil that next year he does DT-02 & DT-03 buggies or truggies but you must do the speed test off road. Most of us have some sort of sports field we can use. Anyway cheers for watching this and I'll see you shortly in the comments of yours. Best wishes mate 😁👍👍

Congrats you got it👏👏👏. Thanks for the value tips for improving the body. Tese come just at the right time

Fantastic job once again Pete man that TT-01 it's sure taking a real beating at that car park if that car could talk just imagine how much bad words it will be yelling out at you during all those crashes? 😜😜🤣🤣🤣🤣😜😜

Haha yeah imagine the drivers face as he heads for the grass bank at a scale speed of 500mph 🤣 Surprising how effectively a bramble bush will stop an RC at speed. Many thanks indeed for watching and your great comments 😁👍👍

Excellent job, Pete. That car is fast, just can't seem to hook up on that loose surface. I liked your approach, full-tilt into the grassy bank, worked perfect! Thanks for your contributions to the BL category. I'm sure the brushed boys will welcome your next entry with open arms (and possibly a few friendly jabs, too!). Cheers!

Hiya Fil. Yeah I don't think I could get it too much quicker there so bowing out of the brushless contest while the car is in one piece! Not sure what I'm going to do to beat that pesky Mark in the brushed category but I'll have a go. Hey I know it's early to be thinking about next year but what about doing DT-02 & DT-03 buggies or truggies but ze extra rule is that you must do the speed run off road? So basically grass or dirt but no concrete or tarmac. It would stop us Brits from moaning about the state of our car parks, the busyness of our roads and speed bumps etc. 🤣 Just a thought but they are cheap kits to pick up and a lot of people have them already. Cheers for watching mate and I look forward to the next summary of results. Ooh I think that you have a vid that I've not seen so I'll check that out asap. 😁

Good job, Pete! Glad the hard work paid off with some extra speed at the end! Enjoy the pint. Cheers my mate!

I was watching and waiting for the penny to drop that you might as well just launch the car at the bank full speed and not try and stop 😂🤣 Good efforts Pete 🙌🏻

Hiya Craig. Yeah I came to the conclusion that the car had less damage when it just piled into the brambles rather than trying to stop and cartwheeling across the carpark. I will adopt the same tactic with the brushed event I think. Cheers for watching mate 😁👍👍

Man Pete, you gave it all you could in that parking lot. Loved you resorted to just going flat out and letting the bank at the end of the lot stop you! That is dedication to going fast, at least once!! LOL! Glad you were able to get it over the 50 mark. That parking lot is just awful to run in so congrats on pulling of the 51!!!

Hiya Addam. Oh yeah stopping this thing in time was probably not an option and the bushes on the bank seemed to stop it better than I could! Yes I was just trying to get over the 50mph mark just as a personal goal. There must be one of yours that I've not seen so I will search it out now. Many thanks for watching mate 😁👍👍

Oh bollocks!!! 🤣 😂 Great run Pete, you broke the 50 mph barrier! Loving your ABS braking...... (At Bank Stopping ) 😉 Not guna lie, I'm a little apprehensive about our 3s run on a narrow road now after seeing this! Looking forward to seeing you unleash the Wylie magic in the brushed category next..... I'm guessing you saw Mark calling you out in his latest video? Be careful, him and Rob have a secret army of squirrels working for them! 🤣 🐿️ Have you had that MG Metro back up in that car park fella?...... there's some serious skid marks on that surface!!! A well deserved IPA I would say, in fact make it two bud! 🤣 👍 👍 👍

Hey yeah the driving at full tilt into the bank did seem like a good strategy in the end. I'm very interested to see how you guys get on with 3s. Really you do need a bit of space to do it. Oh the Wylie magic is usually just to put a brushless motor and lipo in everything and I really have no idea about brushed and NiMH. Mark might well be safe on this but I have to give it a try. Oh yes the boy racers had been out in their full sized cars in the car park but it wasn't me as I'm far too sensible these days 😇 Cheers for your great feedback as ever and I look forward to your next attempt 😁👍

That's a great run Pete. It's difficult to find the space and 51 for TT02 is a great achievement 👍

Hi there Pete, 51mph is very respectable indeed and having a brambles bank to use as a run off area is a neat idea. Good luck in the brushed class. Enjoy your IPA, well deserved. Oh, nice new GPS from SkyRC, neat that it has the recorder in the box and you access this using the app. Unfortunately, I could only squeak to the traditional XOSS gps bicycle speedometer. 😊😂😊 got my Absima AT to 33mph 😂😂😂 and had some fun with the Absima at the local skateboard track. 😊😊best wishes to you all 😊😊

Hiya John. Yeah the method of running the car into the bank ended up being a good plan. I know others are doing much higher speeds and I'm sure I could do better with a nice clear flat surface. Oh yeah I broke the other speed meter on that last attempt so I had to sneakily buy the new one 😂 33mph is not to be sniffed at for a truggy. Did you video the skateboard park footage? Our local skateboard park is always full of surly youths smoking dope. Cheers for your great feedback as ever mate. Best wishes to you 😁

@@PeteWylieRC hi Pete, yeah, I managed to video the skate park using my new fancy fantangled Akaso V50 action camera (what am I like, getting all technical 🤣😂). The Absima Truggy really impressed me, for the cost of the item (£84, plus some extra bearings) okay, had to get the ESC, motor and servo, radio, but the kit was really enjoyable to build and it ain’t half bad 🤣😂🤣I went to the skate park early morning, so, no youths in the way 😊😉😊take care and best wishes.

Ha ha, yeah, it's the law you need to say which button you press, so true! I have that GPS app controlled device also and I quite like it, only issue is my phone is really old and slow, so it lags a lot... Apart from the rough surface asphalt, looks like a nice area, plety space for some good speed! And of course an amazing result, that is fast!

Ha yeah it does amuse me that just about everyone announces the buttons they are pressing on the speed app, 'stop....read' etc. 😂 Yeah the one advantage of a fairly crap summer in Britain is that the beach car park is often quiet. The surface is rough as hell but plenty of space as you say. I'm sure I could have squeezed another few mph out of this but thought I'd quit while it was in one piece. I've done some test runs on brushed and Mark has nothing to worry about so far. Oh yes an IPA is always deserved after the hard work of RC'ing.

I just hit 56 mph with my little truck and I think that was it's last run. It's an ok quality chassis and drivetrain, just not designed very well. I'm thinking of swapping over to the TT02 chassis, but it seems just as unstable at higher speed. Maybe it's the tires?

@PeteWylieRC

Hey that's a good speed you got. I think that the TT-01 is a more planted road car and the steering has less slop but the TT-02 has more possibility of raising the ride height for rally driving. Also I think that the TT--02 is easier to work on. People were certainly getting great speeds out of both of these during the speed contest. Many thanks for watching and your comments 😁👍👍
