- The best of my Traxxas Ford Fiesta ST! This video will also be used as a promotional video for selling this car. I have found myself in the situation that all my cars are to big or not suited for our local track, and I am selling this to build a car that can be used on the track.
The Suspension is modified with/by
* Using the inner holes on the A-arms
*150CST/CPS oil in the shocks (stock pistons)
*Custom Bump Stops made from 3mm inner diameter nitro fuel tubing.
*Traxxas Sway Bars
Upgrades:
*Velineon 3s power system
*VXL 3s driveline
Music:
Spark

Wow! Your video is awesome. I also filmed a Fiesta rally video and it was really hard because it was my first time.👍
Thank you :) Nice video yourself! Looked like a fun place to drive the rally!
Awesome Video again!! That suspension setup definitely looks like it's working really well.
Thank you :) Yeah, it's really fun to just drive it somewhat slowly over bumps and stuff just to see the suspension working :D
Take out those little pieces of plastic on the springs to make the suspension softer, it will look much better as well as it will plant itself in corners more, also if you make some cuts in the reae of the body it will let a lot more air out that gets trapped in the body slowing it down, it could even go a couple or few mph faster! I've had one for a few years and that's all I've done to it. This was an awesome video either way!
Yeah, I've already removed those, but cutting the body doesn't sound like a dumb idea, since it really parachutes in stock form.
Fun to watch, really liked the shot at 2:09
Thanks again :D Yeah, that one looked really good!
Looks very nice again! The suspension is really cool and some scenes look very realistic. Good job👍
Thanks :D Glad you like it!

Sweet vid subscribed.
Thanks :D
Great video guys, superb job on the beauty shoots, cool to watch the improvements with each video :)
The suspension is awesome on this car, shame that you're selling it :D
What car are you planning on building for the track ?
Thank you! I have started to shorten down the beauty shots abit, and I think that works really well instead of having like 30-40 seconds of beauty shots.( AKA a bit more your style 😁)
Really love the suspension, it's always fun when your rc's look realistic. I have already bough a used rolling chassis, and I am going to build it up to a brushless racer/basher. It doesn't matter what car it is, all that matters is that it's the PINK EDITION! My plan is to get a racing buggy when i turn 18, because then I can actually drive to the track whenever I want, this is just a sort of in-between step. And besides the car in question is actually the first RC I ever planned on buying, so it's about time I actually bough it, seeing as that was probably like 6-7 years ago.
Fun fact, with this information you could probably narrow it down to 2 cars that use the the same platform if you really wanted :D
@@VinnesRC Yeah usually I don't make them that long I think. When I have a new release I make a longer one to showcase everything but otherwise just so that it fits the music well and isn't too long :D (although the last one was quite long haha).
Is it an official pink edition or are you going to paint it like that ?
And are we talking about one or two cars haha.
Just on top of my head I don't know which car (there are a lot of race truggies/buggies out there). But I will keep guessing haha :D
@@VinnesRC Is it the Bandit haha ? :D
@@KiTrisExtremeRc You're on the right platform at least xD it's the Rustler. A car which is absolutely not a racer. Which is exactly why I'm going to make it a racer. That makes sense right 🤣 My neighbor was interested in selling his, so I thought, challenge accepted!
@@VinnesRC Haha that will be interesting for sure. Definitely have to push some weight forward and have some grippy front tires otherwise you will just understeer straight off the track :D
Awesome vid....very cool car I love the look...
Thanks :)
Awsome, ser veldig ekte ut😁👌
Thank you! :D
It's a video of an incredible rally driving!👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you :D
This is an amazing video, really well done!
Thank you :D
great video!!👍👍
Thank you :)
Dang that’s fire 🔥
Thanks :D
Very nice video, good job ;-)
Thank you :D
Nice content liked and subscribed 👍
Thank you :D
I upgraded the motor esc diff shocks and driveline, what a difference the motor made for drivability and drifting
It does doesn't it? Completely different car after a few mods!
@@VinnesRC yea man it's how it should have been when the box said race ready.
Do you have any recommendations for the upgraded drive train and motor? And also links to the suspension setup?
As for what is done to the car in question, is to fit it with the drivetrain from a Slash 4x4 VXL, so different slipper clutch, center driveshaft and spur gear, you can't get the slash driveshaft for front and rear, since they are to wide, so I have the stock ones on this car. As for motor and ESC, the important thing is the ESC, this one has a VXL3s traxxas esc, but if you are buying new anyway I would go with a hobbywing 3-4s capable brushless ESC. The motor is not nearly as important, since it doesn't catch fire if it is low quality, but you atleast can't go wrong with a hobbywing motor, so I would probably get a Hobbywing motor/esc combo pack if you find one. The suspension is actually a really cheap mod, all i have done is: Mounted the dampers to the inner mounting holes on the A-arms front and rear, Change the shock oil to one with a viscosity of around 100 CST and i bought some nitro fuel tube with an inner diameter of 3mm and cut them into I think it was 2-3cm lengths for the rear, and 1-2cm in the front, when you buy it it comes in such quantities that you can experiment with different lengths to make the car handle to your liking. When cut up, you unscrew the dampers, remove the spring and lower spring retainer, then you can screw off the lower shock mount, slide the fuel tube on, and replace everything. Note that the fuel tube should end up in between the lower shock retainer and the damper housing, so the lower spring retainer goes "under" the fuel tube, not above it. And lastly some traxxas sway bars for the slash 4x4.
@@VinnesRC awesome thanks man!! Im gonna do some research
@@VinnesRC I'm excited to play with mine! I just picked it up today
would you recommend a rally car
That's actually a really good question. If you are interested in a Rally car and are going to use it for rallying I think you're going to enjoy it. Don't get one if you are going to do anything more than mild bashing with it. I actually bought this one to resell it because it was really cheap, but ended up keeping it for a while because I really liked it. It's not for everyone, but if you think it looks fun, give it a go! If you're not sure, maybe buy a used one, so you can sell it without a big loss if you don't like it.
@@VinnesRC thanks for the advice
Bro the clips feel glued like they clip on hard so how did you remove them
They shouldn't be to difficult to remove, you do really just have to pull them. It can get harder if it is very cold, because they become stiffer in cold temperatures, so if that is the case, try heating it up a bit? I really don't know anything else that would cause it.
@@VinnesRC ya you were right and I just had to pull em out a different way
What shocks did you put on it?
Stock shocks with 100 cst oil and custom bump stops.
