I’ve been getting lots of comments on where I’m running these. Unfortunately it’s private land, and not open to the public. Even though I work there, it’s taken me about 2yrs to sort out.... otherwise I’d organise a group run 👍🏻. But look on the bright side... you are getting some nice content 😎🤟
@James Clark there are recent yellow center lines on the taxiway. Also when pilots plan their routes, they still use these as emergency landing sites. 😉
Moving closer, congrats on a new PB, Phil. Lovin the video's. Your chanel just keeps getting better. Your doing a great job entertaining us. Keep up the great content, and professional approach. Thanks for sharing. Keep em coming. John
That was some great runs dude, shame about crashing out, so close now ! Can’t wait to see you get it over 100 But pretty sweet getting to 88mph, Heavy!!! 🤩 is there something wrong with the earths gravitational pull 😂
Can an rc car be happy ?of course it can! ..... ohh big crash big crash ! Love these videos mate keep up the good work wish you'd hit higher speed but hey ho hope you hit 100 soon
I know this video is pretty old, but watching this video inspired my to build my own. I'm trying to fit a 1/10 brushless motor in the 124018. Wish me luck.
awesome speed run, you are close to the 100 now, seems a week for speed crashes, my strada took on a curb and lost, and a friend rolled his Banzai speed runner, he is at 80 so far, not bad for a drift car lol
@@TomleyRC you could upgrade to 4s but I can only get 1-2 runs in (up and back) before the motor gets too hot (not burning out but hot enough!) I think 3s and gearing up is a better way, I'm personally trying to see what I can do with stock gearing 😀 keep up the good work Tom
@@MatthewSimm I’m really hoping to push it past 100 in 3s. I always feel more Volts is the easy option. I like to do it a little more technical. Hence it’s still running a nice sleek body without anything sticking out of it 😎
Well done buddy it's getting close to that magic ton , mine should be similar in performance but, I can go to 4s if needed I'm may change the motor speed passion 3.5 t
I am actually like super surprised that the lipo battery didnt burst into flames from scraping on the ground and being exposed like that. Im genuinely surprised and its a good thing it didn't!
@Tomley RC my 3.5T rocket motor literally blew up on 3s, heat skyrocketed on the second run, motor blew oil over the inside of the car I can only imagine a bearing went on it, I'll take it apart at the weekend. Mine tumbled at 97mph on 2s and was okay so you were unlucky on the crash, that said if it tumbles it seems to bend at least one driveshaft
@@TomleyRC yeah she was mate took it well tho tbh... I geared up to much then back of the car crouched to much and she took off. Will limit shocks and go again next week I think. Really struggling on a road tho!
Your hair has hit the headlines. If your not using (justformen) then I'm going to start Goldie locks. That's some GARNIER hair for sure "swanky." Epic PB 92mph congratulations! your not done you little fibber 😂
Hey Phil nice video. Pity you managed to trash it. I know you have told me before but I lost the info. What GPS/Tracker do you use please. Sorry for asking you twice. I used to work at MoD Boscombe Down. Never thought to ask them if I could use a taxi way. The main runway was totally out of the question. Cheers.
Pretty damn fast little beast. Looks like you've got some problems with your downforce. To put it short and quick: Think about lowering the front and try some softer springs at the back. Maybe this could solve the problem?
Hey Tomley I'm new to RC will I be ok not greasing the diffs I honestly wouldn't know how to get it all back again. I have a brand new 144001 not been used yet.
Deffo would recommend you grease the diffs, just leave the relevant screws in relevant holes and it will be easier to put back together, check all screws are tight, check shocks are not leaking and have some fun, great little cars with tons of potential and relatively cheap upgrades
Man mine 124019 is cursed everytime i hit 68mph i finds nearest curb and smashes the shit to pieces..lol 3 times now last pass made 1 run and it found a 🚚 wheel
Nice video dude 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻 That crash sucks! I crashed mine at around 100 last time I was out 😖 how do you find out the speed records? Is there a website to check out?
As you said about that foam on the floor.. don't you think it would benefit for more Stability on high speed... Just like old F1 cars with that "ground effect" skirts on the floor...

Really fun video that - I laughed out loud several times. 😁 Impressive speed too, nice one. 👍
Wow that car is fast! I love it.
Nice combo , so fast congratulations buddy🚀!!
Great dude!! Amazing sneaks on the road killer!! Yeaah!!
Dude, you are so close!! You got this!
Pretty fantastic runs, dude! Congrats!!! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Man, I just love the sound when it passes.
That's bloody awesome. 88mph crash!
92mph PB is great. Keep pushing
Cheers dude. 100mph soon!
@@TomleyRC not far away now
How ampere for esc n what model? Motor? N baterry.. coz i now want to modified my buggy .

Thanks John, really appreciate the support
Wow, that was fast!!! Sorry for the crash but there might be even more in it. Looked amazing, I love it 😍
Thanks for watching Kimberly. Rebuild and go again... that's one of the best parts :)
I must have some grade A sh!t luck I clipped a concrete pillar at low speed and broke my control arm. Pretty impressive your car survived that crash!!
Wow Brilliant !
Total Respect to you Phil for your fantastic build & results,
& guess what ? I’m now going to order the 124019 & have some fun 😃
Awesome! It’s addictive once you see how fast they go on just a basic set up!
Looks like the car took that crash well. Quite impressive at that speed!
Yeah, not to bad considering how fast it was going!
What a great video, impressive speed run. Doesn't look like much damage considering the speed.
awesome! Seems super stable.
Ouch! Man that 92 looked blistering!
Crazy when it zips past your feet!
Congratulations on the 90mph 👍✊🏻
Thanks mate
That’s an awesome PB 💪🏻😎
Thanks dude
Congrats on the PB! I hope you're not quitting on this car :)
No not quitting. I'm done with phase 1... moving to phase 2
Wow it still amazes me how strong these wltoys cars are. Just had a nasty hit with a pole. Luckily no seriousdamage! 😅 Great vid
Oh no!! That's rough bro! That thing rips! I took my 144001 out today and had a bit of crash myself! But all part of the game 🖖🤓🇨🇦
Cheers!
Looking good, getting close.
Yes...nearly!
That location is awesome i would love to run my Hobao Hyper GTs on there when its done and ready
Did you have to dispose of the lipo? I have the gens ace beaching too and they have aluminium renforcement plates on either side.
That's Fast like. Think you're going to get the ton
Awsome test runs ...92 mph...thats crazy
Very fast, i like it
Hey Phil, long time no comment. Congrats on that personal best. That’s one wicked WPL brother, incredible passes man
WPL? U probably mean WLToys.
@@kravenkrawlhobby5438 No. There is a difference between WPL and WLToys. WLToys is a completely different company. Look it up online.
@@kravenkrawlhobby5438 hey jo. I didn't mean to be unkind to you. But I didn't find any sources in the internet that prove what you wrote.
@@kravenkrawlhobby5438 SRY. I never said that.
@@kravenkrawlhobby5438 WPL isnt wltoys
Looks like an ideal location 😉 I've got a runway near me but it's really overgrown
Great run buddy! Great video! 👍🍻
Very nice ❗❗❗❗
The sky is so blue,its mad what rc cars can do now.😃
It was a nice day! For a change!
ohhhhh nicee!! god job bro!!😃😃+1
That was some great runs dude, shame about crashing out, so close now ! Can’t wait to see you get it over 100
But pretty sweet getting to 88mph, Heavy!!! 🤩 is there something wrong with the earths gravitational pull 😂
Good speed test
Let's revive this and get over 100MPH. You can do it, Phil.
I’ve been tinkering with my 124019 for about a month now waiting for this awful snow to go away so I can finally give it some proper runs!
Its ok PENFOLD your hair is fine lol
what type of motor mount/plate did you use to fit that motor and gears?
Can an rc car be happy ?of course it can! ..... ohh big crash big crash ! Love these videos mate keep up the good work wish you'd hit higher speed but hey ho hope you hit 100 soon
haha...cheers dude
Part two pleAse, wanna make the full build at once:)
I know this video is pretty old, but watching this video inspired my to build my own. I'm trying to fit a 1/10 brushless motor in the 124018. Wish me luck.
Nice 👍😊👍~~~😊🤩😁
Was the bottom foam inspired by the Lotus John Player ground affects in F1?
Need to do a 200mph car tom. That would be awesome buddy
Very nice! Oops, one run too many!
He’ll done 👍👍👍
wow cool video👍👍
where did you buy that clear case cover?
88mph MARTY!
That thing on 3s is faster than my traxxas maxx on 6s! Great video.
oh btw, for all of u that think i have the stock esc, i put a hobbywing max 8. The stock esc is only rated for 4s.
LARRY!!
@@rcnoob6231 i dont know if we will ever find Larry. maybe he is dead. lol
@Sparsh i know. and when i was at 70 mph, the front lifted up, and it crashed into a mailbox post.
@Sparsh chassis, front bulkhead, both front arms, the c hubs, the axles, the servo, and the center drive shaft.
awesome speed run, you are close to the 100 now, seems a week for speed crashes, my strada took on a curb and lost, and a friend rolled his Banzai speed runner, he is at 80 so far, not bad for a drift car lol
Lots of 'ouch' this week!
Hey Tomley !
Would you have some tips to reduce the play in the front drive assembly ?
I find it way too wobbly on mine :(
I just hit 100mph I think I'm running the same motor but a 4.5t on 4s!!
Awesome! 100 is possible on 3s, but not with the current ESC/Lipo combo
@@TomleyRC you could upgrade to 4s but I can only get 1-2 runs in (up and back) before the motor gets too hot (not burning out but hot enough!) I think 3s and gearing up is a better way, I'm personally trying to see what I can do with stock gearing 😀 keep up the good work Tom

Hi. Where did you get the body shell?
eBay. ‘Phat Bodies’
buen video!! +1👀😎
Thumbs up for the hair 👍😂
Well done buddy it's getting close to that magic ton , mine should be similar in performance but, I can go to 4s if needed I'm may change the motor speed passion 3.5 t
3.5T on 4s will be mental haha
There's a technical term , shit or bust haha
Nice Nice, 100 mph soon I hope:)
Love this build its amazing. Did you replace the servo or is it original?
Matthew in Australia stock gearing little over 100 not much over
😀
What is the speedometer thing you have?
Hello, what kind of body chassi are you using? is the same scale? Love your project
I have the rocket pro v3 motor and I'm having trouble soldering it. Did you have trouble or have any pointers? Thanks
Maybe you should try to put a front splitter on it to reduce drag and lift generated by the front tires.
Yes, that's the plan
Where u got body shell?
I am actually like super surprised that the lipo battery didnt burst into flames from scraping on the ground and being exposed like that. Im genuinely surprised and its a good thing it didn't!
Tomley, id look at the rocket 160a esc
Yeah, maybe
Good on ya... ;)
Where did you test it looks like a army base?
Military Airfield
Hi what model spoiler you use ?

They are pretty tough! The 4.5T was getting really hot, but I was only doing 2 passes before stopping for a bit to cool it down
Well done for the pb mate. Your only 2mph behind me 🙈 best get mine rebuilt after last weeks curb 😂. Well done again pal 👍
Awesome... wasn't sure who had the record haha. Seems we both need to rebuild... just seen yours was a big hit to the curb! ouch!

What kind of a GPS are you using on your phone to record your speed ?????
Your hair has hit the headlines. If your not using (justformen) then I'm going to start Goldie locks. That's some GARNIER hair for sure "swanky."

I've been trying to get mine over 100 but have issues with the center drive shaft. it vibrates like crazy and is soaking up a ton of power
where abouts do you do your speed runs. looks like a runway
Gotta fix the hair, pimpin' ain't easy.
haha
did you modify steering at all? gyro? i guess at over 80 you hit a pebble and the car can go air born.. held up pretty good...
What did u with the chassis? It looks like u cut a big pice of plastic nad put it under the car
I prefer to focus on acceleration than speed
Ur hair is always ok!!

Easy to do if you have a rough road and a few obstacles like curbs! They are like magnets!
Crazy I just crashed mine the other day in an icy ditch at 68mph lol. It did not fair too well, rebuild under way.
Is that 117mph record for this specific model number or is it for the whole WL toys lineup?
That ESC is rated to 4000KV max on 3S lol. I have 2 of those. They are great, just the fan is a bit noisy.
Dude , try to drive east ! Тhis is the direction in which the earth rotates, so the gravity may be slightly higher :D
