Well, I just wanted to see how fast it would go. I did not get a chance to do any quarter mile times, because I broke it. After I fix it this weekend I will do some quarter mile times. I am going to make a light set up to get accurate timing. As for timing by hand, it can be off by a tenth, that is why I try to average about a dozen runs to allow for errors. The motor is the stock wired motor from the Motorworks car (white endbell 3.2?). I am also running taller tires which will increase top speed. I have an even taller set, but it will require chassis mod to fit them. I did time one standing 20 ft. (not scale 1/4 mile) at 1.71. Now, where was that thread on timing light (lap counter).
