[@Panster7]

The speed and the precision they have are incredible

[@christianlewis7055]

I always wonder how the media coverage of RC racing can be made more engaging. I think if the radios could also send telemetry to the media team for display on screen, that might be fun to watch. I think even better would be having really great zoomed in camera work that follows the cars well. Also occasional slow motion shots like in other full-scale motorsport.

[@gnaheiat]

it's a good idea, but imagine how difficult it will be to implement

[@vladtepes97]

i'd like to see some of these races on slightly narrower tracks.

[@ryanwellington7493]

I think a fpv camera to show a first person view from the cars would also go quite far in adding depth to the races. Would be cool if the racers could use a sim rig and vr headset to simulate being in the car but that's definitely pushing it lol.

[@sbrunner69]

F1 starts soon.

[@williamoleary9330]

These drivers are so super talented. This was so much fun to watch. Congratulations to the Champion!

[@orangespeedway]

Glued to the ground! Great racing!

[@tiagodaniel3191]

Grande bruno coelho a representar o nosso 🇵🇹🇵🇹

[@adrsprints]

It would be nice to have moving texts that would indicate who are driving the cars.

[@domino2278]

Nice!!

[@valex6172]

do you make an A finals video from the Spec touring too?

[@robinm6100]

they are so fast, you must have eyes of an eagle to race lol

[@AkibaMomoro]

It's more concentration than anything from my personal experience. It's so easy for new RC racers to let their concentration break by simple things like accidently looking at another car or away from your own for more than anything that isn't seeing the upcoming turn.

[@SEDARTA_RECORDS]

I wouldn't be surprised if the top 5 cars racing here are fitted with prototype components.

[@sky_fpv7529]

What is this race series called exactly what rc cars class is this

[@NRD.Entertainment]

What chassis are being used for these races?

[@MetalMathiasTP]

which motors are they running? 13.5t or 17.5 turns? Anyone who knows?

[@jaylestingi5418]

On a track like this these are 4.5 turn motors with full size 6000 mAH cells instead of shorties Obviously boost and turbo added Ronald saw 116 kmh which is like 73 mph These are the best electric TC drivers in the world--they don't run stock (13.5/17.5)!!

[@sppf1999]

now we have 10000mah batteries but why racing times are only limited to 4 min still? just curious. can it be a 8 minutes in future

[@Mr_BUSINESS_24_7]

Seems like they all share similar control over their cars.. ... some cars are just somewhere between more powerful and significantly faster.

[@michaelchristensen5421]

Why do they start so far apart? Looks like about 12-15' between the cars. This makes for a boring race. Start them 3' apart and that would make it interesting.

[@benashlin8845]

This is mod. They are going over 100kph on the straight. If there is any contact, both cars are toast.

[@michaelchristensen5421]

@@benashlin8845 I know it is mod, they do not start this fast on the initial tone. They should bring them in a bit closer as this is way to far apart. No action at all. Seems like the only way you pass is if someone messes up, otherwise you finish where you qualified.

[@troycarter4742]

These guys have so much control over the cars it's amazing. That's really the big reason it doesn't look exciting here, becaue they have all in control at an unbelievable level. Full respect to them.

[@jaylestingi5418]

@@michaelchristensen5421Passing is almost impossible with 4.5 turn mod motors on a big track, Everyone is maxed out speed wise already. If you actually raced modified TC, you would know you couldn't start 3 feet apart and not get contact. ANY contact at these speeds and your $800 chassis is tweaked and done. This isn't like racing 17.5 blinky on an 80' x 60' foot CRC carpet track. But then, if you actually raced, you'd already know that

[@michaelchristensen5421]

@@jaylestingi5418 never raced on pavement, let alone modified pavement.

[@meudrone4k369]

Chique 👀

[@bibhabbag1]

what are these rc cars?

[@contraststriker8198]

E-Touring cars

[@roblapouple7552]

Whats top speed these cars

[@comradenumber6928]

Probably 150 if they are set up the right way but they would basically fly up in the air and crash if they go over 80 most likely.

[@meudrone4k369]

Show corrida 🏎 💨

[@rccarloverluxembourg718]

So apparently the organisation of this worlds was a total desaster.

[@JarrettDorough]

So fast it looks fake

[@ryanwellington7493]

Acceleration is easy when the car only weighs a few lbs.

[@mr33spitnbarz28]

Snooze fest

[@jamesclark3610]

Don't watch then , go to sleep !

[@jaylestingi5418]

Why are you here again?

[@hib6076]

So boring

[@UltraLord5850]

Your Life?

[@jamesclark3610]

then, bye bye,..see ya !

[@ryanwellington7493]

Why are you watching then? More entertaining than f1, no full scale car can accelerate and manoeuvre like these. If there were fpv cameras and telemetry it would be more interesting.

[@hib6076]

@@UltraLord5850 wow. "Ultra Lord" really got me there 😫

[@hib6076]

@ryanwellington7493 no way are you getting defensive over RC cars lmao I really pity you
