I got invited to do this afew years ago with a pan car. Me and my Dad recieved a AE pan car, put an airplane brushless in it( this was before brushless) numerous cells and we went through so many tyres to try and make it grip on the cycle dome in Manchester. We had a lazer to count the average on the lap and it took a while to get it up to speed. I had a problem with the car falling down on the steep banks of the corners. The first lap I managed to get it completly airborn off the lazers cover, go up turn 1, half into the crowd and the other half ended up in turn 3. I eventualy got it up to 79mph which felt bludy fast. I did take my Traxxas at the time which got about 50mph on brushed. Would love to have a go at the insane speed run which I think is now about 130.
