You need to reduce drag. The antenna could be incorporated into the vertical stabilizers, making one less drag surface. Also, the body mounts and clips could be inverted so the towers and clips are upside down and behind the wheels, making four fewer drag surfaces. Finally, airplanes have cowls on their wheels for a reason. Extend the skirt of the body to encompass the rear wheels and taper it towards the rear (you could, with sufficient planning, cowl the steering wheels, but probably won't). Those changes will give you a total of seven drag reductions. Best of luck!
Absolutely. Every little thing. Painting B-17’s in World War II made them faster because it filled in gaps at the rivets & seams. They just didn’t paint them so they could get them off the production line faster, which is what really mattered at the time.
Im also thinking about the aesthetic of the body. The fake cockpit and all those louvers and such. Perhaps a completely featureless and streamlined body would do wonders.
Raz Have you thought about bringing 2 ladders and a board to stand up high that way you can get a longer run and see the car better? I see all the guys going for the record either standing on a ladder or the bed of a big truck to get a height advantage so they can get a longer run-up. When we race the driver's stands are up real high so we can see the corners of the track. You should try it. Might be that extra edge you need to break 200+ mph.
Aircraft style running lights so you know which way it's pointed may help as well. A buddy used to paint his high speed planes in odd blocks of colors so he could tell the planes orientation at distance. Not pretty, but he found it effective.
@@donaldrieger381 trying to keep weight down might be the issue. However, putting high-vis reflective tape (different reflective frequencies for front and back) and shining high-output lights down the track would serve the the same purpose adding only a few grams to the build.
just a thought Raz, you said its always the front right tyre blowing out, thats the same side the servo is on, maybe try a dual servo setup on steering to better balance steering at high speed. everything is equally balanced front to back of the car except the steering servo!
Back in 1998 when i was into rc Cars, a car that could reach between 40 to 50 miles, was the absolute King.. 😂😂😂 can't Imagine how far this game goes... Keep it up!! Might be so hard to see/control at this crazy speeds!!
We were doing 80mph+ in 1989 w/ pan cars (RC10L). This was matched NiCd cells, 10 turn brushed motors (Twister for me) & Novak T1x speed control. I still have the whole setup. Pan cars are very squirily (2WD in general) it was difficult and couldn’t go too much faster and maintain control.
Wow, he’s serious about RC cars building. Really hope that you break the record with a fat amount of mph so it becomes as close to impossible to break long time after if it is even approachable from there. Thanks for sharing this.
Love the content, I built a dual motor rc speed car several years ago and never tested it. I was going for a record and then lost interest, hope you hit the world record as you are the king of rc speed! you officially are the king of rc speed! congrats!
Nice run 👍👍clean smooth and knock'n on that door!!! Only in my dreams would my dual motor go that fast....maybe one day lol nice work , beautiful build as always and good luck🤔 202 next run....you got this!
I'm loving these carbon fiber driveshafts, saving me a lot of headaches. I have 3 sets installed so far. I've already experienced the alternatives; bent out titanium version during g a run and stock, luckily it didn't tear everything up.. I appreciate what you do!
WOW!! THANK YOU SO MUCH KEN! Dude..Actually, this is the first time i ever got a super thanks! made my day, thank you so much! Also, I'm happy you like them!
@@RazShifrin Right on man, I'm surprised others haven't (YET). As you know our time is a non-renewable resource, and you my friend have put in the time, effort & patience to make our experiences better. Thanks again brother.
@@zachdillon275 he uses a nice gyro for the steering and a device he invented called perfect pass “available on Amazon” to control how fast he accelerates.
I bought two of your monster servos from perfect pass and omfg. No joke omfg these are the best god dam servos on the planet. If only I had these years ago. My RC’s drive so fucking straight and respond so fucking quick omg. Thank you!!!!!!!!
I love watching these vids, your attention to detail and quality of build is an artform all by itself. I have no idea if this is even possible or not, but is there a way to gather additional telemetry on your high-speed runs? I appreciate there are probably very few telemetry sensors available for RC vehicles but I feel if anyone can make it happen, Raz can! It would be really interesting to understand more about the forces exerted on a scale model at these speeds, and I for one would love to understand more about the physics involved.
Damn Raz, you're so close to the goal and I can't wait to see you smash the record. The Bashing series Li-Po's are a lot better than people think. They are the only Li-Po's I've got and I've personally never had a problem with them.
I have a little question. Why not build yourself a little stand, that you could be like 1m up, or more, when driving. You've have slightly better view on the car, and us viewers would also see a bit better as the car is approaching. Theres a reason races are also usually from a drivers stand, as it helps with seeing the car. Obviously I've never ran a speed-run, but just a thought. :) Anyway, love the videos as always.
I use Velcro straps to hold the batteries down. I haven't got close to your speeds, but I do think they would have held your batteries in place for that wreck and I'm pretty sure they're lighter weight. My cut outs to allow them are through the chassis so my straps are outside, but I don't think it's necessary
This is amazing. Had no idea RC cars could go anywhere near this fast. For something this precise and risky I'd want to hire one of those big streetsweepers and wash the road clean first.
You can hear it bottoming out on the ground. Might be beneficial to raise the ride height 1/2 a millimeter on the front and 3/4 of a millimeter in the rear. The rake angle will help maintain the current level of downforce and stability and should stop the bottoming out.
That’s one stunning build. It looks like a factory kit! So so close, a bit more fettling, better batteries and I think you’ll get it. Then you’ll have to go for it officially right? With Guinness there to record it.
With builds that expensive, you really should get two guys hanging out the back of the car with leaf blowers and make a couple passes to clear the road off every now and then.
Food for thought.....have a buddy down where you think the pass will end, really really helps with spotting as well as retrieving cars on their way to charcoal briquette status.
Congrats Raz. That was an amazing first pass. Thank you for blazing the trail on speed runs, and passing along some of the tips on what is working for you. I just received my first shipment of Scorched parts. I'm getting very excited about this new journey into a new (to me) segment of RC.
Great video Raz, shows the journey (not an easy one!) First pass with such a high speed, good things are on the horizon so great job sticking with it 👏👏👏👏👏
I bought my monster servo as a birthday present for myself. Got to put it in my kraton this week. My wife and kids bought me the 3s infraction blx, it was a great b- day. I'm hoping perfect pass comes out with some carbon fiber parts for the 3s line-up
I wonder if having a squib that deploys a parachute (only if it goes inverted) would save on some parts without adding too much weight? lol, or a Co2 cartridge that deploys a beach ball around it...
The beach ball wouldn't work in practice, but you're on the right track. Accelerometers mounted near each wheel that if any detects violent shaking deploys a chute from the rear would mitigate damage and costs, for sure.
Great build as always. Sucks about the lipo shortages. Quick question tho, do you think your burn outs just before the pass might be chewing up your foams? I know you’re probably trying to heat up the packs and tires, but that’s a dangerous move IMO. Love your content and wish you the best. 🤘🏻
Going in a straight line is one thing , it might be interesting to see this beast on a track, maybe a 1:5 track or a go cart track so it could unleash itself a little :D
I'm not a RC guy at all, but enjoyed the video. Just looking from a lay persons POV, the shell of the car looks like the weak point. The thin clear plastic shell at 200mph must be flexing all over the place. Added to the that, is there really a need for the "cockpit" atheistic to be on the outer shell? That must be 5 mph in drag alone. I would have thought a low as possible, carbon body, flat all the way, would yield the best results. I look forward to your next videos!

Carbon shields RF. He may be able to keep it in the body, if range isn’t an issue.
Reduce weight

@@dwaynewilliams3077 LOL just replied more or less the same. Well, maybe if there's many with this idea, perhaps he'll consider! :D

Roof rack on any vehicle would suffice.

Kevin Talbot doesn't stand a chance to ever beat your amazing cars. The time/attention and passion that goes into these builds is fenominal.
Kevin obviously knows that.. he’s just having fun installing a ton of power and seeing what it can do. Raz has true desire and passion for this
2 different approaches, more fun.
He may not out run them, but if you want to truly see an RC bashed to its abosolute limit....theres no place like Talbots shop lol
Raz wins on just having way more class.
just a thought Raz, you said its always the front right tyre blowing out, thats the same side the servo is on, maybe try a dual servo setup on steering to better balance steering at high speed. everything is equally balanced front to back of the car except the steering servo!
Also safer lest any one servo short/spaz out.
No one deserves the record more than you Raz! Absolute works of Art 👏👊
Your a rockstar...Your so calm and mellow when you wreck a car..🤙 I freak out and curse like a sailor when I crash one of my helicopters.
198 mph, dropping to 22.x volts on basher lipos. Un...freaking...real...Raz, this car is flat out scary...💪💪💪
You and Kev must have been talk lol y'all posted so close together. Two speed run videos on Saturday morning. I love it!
They must talk they're good friends they're trying to beat the record like together so yeah I'd say they both knew they was going out geesh
Kevin mentioned in his video that Raz recommended some parts for Kev's car.
That's what I love about both of them.
The support.
I just love the passion you put into the hobby and how much you want everyone to be part of it❤️
Man, you guys are brave standing around with no barrier protection. One crash could kill someone!
It’s not brave, it’s stupid.
Laugh my ass off for people with way too much money and too much time on their hands you are so blessed I work really hard for a cheap RC car
AWQESOEM Raz! Soooo close! You will raise the bar very soon! 💪👍
Brilliant, craftsmanship Raz, we are all cheering for you, you are almost there. 207 mph next run. Go go go. John

when you consider the RC glider speed record is over 500mph it gives some vague idea of how far this might go
@@bcastromusic lol they were like 30mph cars stock out the box... you'd throw your soul into them to get them to speeds a stock bandit will do lol.

Great video, Raz. I can almost feel your tension on the speed run. You'll do it, I'm sure. Keep up the great work :)
