    Apologies for using KM/H if you prefer MPH! The reason for doing so was to have more definition at these very slow speeds as my GPS doesn't show decimals. Here's a conversion to MPH of the final cars in each class (spoilers below)...
    Pure Lego Car - 7mph
    Rocket Car - 23.4mph
    RC motor Car - 26mph
    Thanks for watching! Will be back soon with another video (hopefully within the month) ☺

    Perhaps you could partner up with someone who is more versed in building with technic lego. For starters i could see a use in suspension to offset the bumpy roads you use, and a wider track for higher stability. And there are much better wheels available in Lego. And perhaps a gym floor would be better suited as those are typically fairly large and exceptionally flat and smooth. A indoor location would also rule out weather conditions.

    Honestly would have liked to see a bit more restrictions/rules as it does seem like you could have just stuck a lego brick to your existing rc car at that point and called it a lego car by how some of the final ones were propelled. It seemed less about optimising the lego part and more about building the most basic chassis and sticking a rocket on it.

    48 years ago, using the same rocket motors, Estes C6-5, my friend and I built a Lego rocket car. The car disassembled in rapid fashion on the first three attempts. However, we discovered using Large Lego wheels, 2" in diameter with a 1/4" wide tread, and lengthening the vehicle to about 2' long AND using a new invention called Krazy Glue. We had three successful runs. Using a stop watch and a blacktop basketball court to measure speed, Lego Landsmasher IV went an astounding 26mph.

    there's 2 improvements you can do
    first adding suspension to help the car to keep its wheels on the road (it will increase the weight, you'll need to take care about the suspension travel and lego shock absorbers aren't the best but it will absorb the roughness of the road and will improve the stability)
    two : don't forget to put a caster angle on your steering to improve stability
    the vehicle is very light so the stability is really important

Success...until front end exploded from road vibrations. 2nd car v2.1 -- taped front end together: SUCCESS! Car traveled straight down road until ejection charge in motor went off.

    When I was a kid, my brother and I used to build cars out of Legos to see if we could build one that would stay together when sent down all 11 stairs in our house. Everything was carpeted at the time so it was just a matter of them surviving going from one story down to the other.
    Legos seem to have been different then as most of the blocks were thicker than that and we didn't have any of those longer ones with holes in the sides either so I would say that they were more robust. The common problem was that the wheels just clipped onto these little plastic clips on the side of blocks made for that so the wheels would usually fall off and sometimes they'd pick the entire brick off of the car with them, plus we entirely broke a few such bricks at the little attachment point that clipped into the hub of the wheel. There had to have been loads of friction too since it was just a plastic on plastic bearing. The other thing that happened was that bricks would fall off of the outsides of our cars or whole sections would if we tried to put any hollow space inside the car.
    There were no Lego motors or any electronics whatsoever back then and this video is actually the first time I've ever heard of such a thing and now I want some! It was all push-powered stuff back then though. There were RC cars and we ruined several a Christmas/Chanukah present sending them down the stairs to see what happened, although I don't know why we didn't expect them to break even more efficiently than our Lego cars. This is obviously why we only sent a couple of them down the stairs before we realized that they'd all just immediately be destroyed. Seeing all the cool parts I could have harvested from them, I wish I still had them, although I doubt the parts really would have avoided oxidation after all these decades. All of the controllers were likely shittier back then too but I don't know since I've never owned one of these newer ones. The newest remote control thing I've ever owned was one of those cheap RC helicopters that you can fly indoors. I will say both that I suck at flying helicopters and that it was very funny to watch my cats chase and catch the helicopter.

    You need to look into some actual lego building techniques to make the things you make stronger.
    Instead of just placing beams directly on top of each other, if you place two single plates between them, the holes will line up at exactly the right distance so you can add vertical beams connected with pegs. This will make a much stronger structure.

    Hi James, big fan of the channel. Here's an idea for something that seems to be right up your street in terms of techniques. Why not try making an RC plane which has an EDF/Prop for low speed flying and a rocket for high speed flying. I know you've got something like this in the past but the new twist I thought you could put on it would be to take inspiration of some military air craft (like the F111 and the F-14) which have a variable wing geometry design commonly called swing wing. This way you can have the wings out for low speed take off and landing and then sweep them back in flight for a really highspeed rocket assisted run.

If you want to drive on raff roads, you have to add a suspension on the car. This will make it a lot more stable if you have not a plane ground. A steering Gyro ist also very helpful at high speed. You can reach 70 an more Km/h with the BL Motor you use in the Vid. Im sure.

    "the nature of LEGO bricks in holding themselves together while been propelled down a road at high speed and rattling around all over the place they don't really lend themselves to this kind of application"
    Challenge accepted! With some 'proper' LEGO design work I'm sure it would be possible ;)

    There are Lego parts you can purchase like axles and beams that are made of metals like aluminum/aluminium, they’re a lot stronger and can withstand higher RPMs for much longer

    The reason they keep falling apart is because you don't know how to build a strong, reinforced frame. Just use more bricks and flat pieces, sure it will make it heavier but at least it won't break.

    You should look up the 3 different Lego PF Motors...You switched from a single M-motor right away to several XL-motors...XL-motors have the lowest speed, but highest torgue out of all PF Motors...

    I feel like shock mounting the rocket motor on a linear compression spring would reduce issues, as it would act like a capacitor/inductor smoothing out the high jerk from the motor. Basically it would go faster/further if the motor was mounted on a spring... Maybe?

    Building the fastest “Lego” car…by trying to pair a Lego build with non-Lego propulsion? Might as well just take an unpowered Lego car and put in a carry-on bag on your next airplane trip, and claim it’s the fastest “Lego” car at 550mph!

    I played with LEGOs for such a large portion of my childhood, for some reason I threw them away in hopes to do better things.. Could be because I'm truly very ambitious.. could be because most of my stuff disappeared anyway, that I threw more away in a sense of grief.. but I miss my stuff, so cherish all good things that you have, you'd miss some stuff if it wasn't there, make better of your situation.

    I reckon the pure Lego motors car would work using 4 motors where each motor is direct to wheel, or maybe just 2 cogs per wheel to step it up…

    I think its all about the steering if have enought power. Low the ratio or decrease speed of steering for smooth control if you only want a straight run

    The rocket would work if you set it up like a slot car. Put a "T" at the bottom to keep it from coming off.
    An example idea would be two bars/cables drawn tight, over a distance. Then a car with a "keel" of sorts, and a whale tail on the bottom of the keel similar to a hydrofoil design. Then all the rockets your heart desires and hope for the best.

    I made a few lego cars that would have survived most of that. Used to battle them head-on, in my house as a kid lol, so naturally they evolved. The trick is overlapping loads of flat pieces. Don't use the chonky bricks where you don't have to, and sandwich the crap out of them with flat bits when you do. Making the cars arrow shaped seemed to help, too.
    Build like this, and the cars wont break anymore, but you will start to chip and shatter the actual lego pieces instead, because of how rigid they are. I broke a lot of lego lol.

      Suspension and some strong shapes would have helped a lot too.

    I guess making the car wider can improve stability. Rocket engine are best accelerating engines

    But isn't kp/h like double division?
    It's either kph or km/h, it?

    I can't believe how rough the roads are there! I would have skinned off my arms and legs had I fallen off of my motorcycle there but I suppose I wouldn't have slid as far as I did either. Maybe the roads are rougher on account of you guys getting so much more precipitation than we do here.

    Lego made some high powered electric motors that could hit some pretty good speeds if I recall correctly... but they are super rare and expensive...
