my 'non turbo' 2 speed tgx does exactly 80 km/h and trust me that's really scary... one crash at that speed and the car will be totally destroyed. so if those turbos works... with that sort of car, it'll do 100km/h easily. if anyone's interested, I can put some videos of rc cars on-line, just let me know!

Default Supercharger or supergimick?

Thats an interesting gimick. I wonder how much gain there is in hp? I suspect that it would sap more hp than it would gain. I know a standard Roots type supercharger on a car takes about 3 to 4hp off the car... so it would be interesting to see if it actually works...

Thats just insane.Man those little R/C cars are awesome.But they cost nearly the same amount as real car parts(who wants to spend 1 grand just to buy a RC car then buy parts for 230 dollars)...
But I've have to give it to them for that.
