Two years ago, we posted an entry on Nic Case and his 2009 speed record.
Today, Case continues his quest to build and drive the world's fastest RC car, with help from Team Associated and many others. Case recently ran a few test runs in Bakersfield, CA.
Some of the specs: electric power; ten pound car, with ten horsepower (1:1 HP/weight ratio!!??); three-inch diameter foam tires, spinning at 28,000 rpm; and like full-sized F1, an aesthetic that blends a bit of aircraft tech to keep the car planted into the tarmac.
There is no doubt, with assistance from the resources at Team Associated, including Cliff Lett and Curtis Husting, that Case will achieve the 200 mph target soon.
Godspeed!
