Now that looks like a fun layout! I love crazy technical tracks like that.

[@AdamDrake]

Yes, it's a lot of fun!

[@dondagy9109]

I know this is an older post, but i just looked this place up, as my girlfriend is a travelling nurse, we are set to come to palm springs in april, i just put together a couple new cars. Hoping to come see you guys, and hopefully some of that majic will rub off lol im 45, ive been in, and keep track of rc since i was about 12. So ive been seeing you for a long long time, through all the manufacturer changes, and industry changes and shrink and growth.

[@RcOffroad9513]

Great driving Adam! I am headed out to my local track, to practice with my nitro buggy for the first time! It's a losi 3.0 with Reds wr7. I've had it finished for a month and a half, but the track been closed or wet... its dry and open now... later!

[@AdamDrake]

Have a great time!

[@JB6seven1]

i already watched this, i just came back here to listen to that top end!!!

[@AdamDrake]

Haha, that's awesome! Thanks. :)

[@davidhunter8343]

Nice run Adam! Sounds and looks great 👍, got her purring like a kitten! Can't wait to see more! Now I just have to finish my mbx8 and get mine going.

[@AdamDrake]

Thank you!

I'm a Reds man, have been for a few years now but that new AD II freaking screams. Sounds amazing and performs awesome. With your break in method I may have to make a switch. 🔥🔥🔥

Very nice! Please feel free to let me know if you have any questions. Thanks! [e-mail]

Outstanding as always Adam! Any tips that you can provide for nitro buggy in regards to the rear being loose and hard to control when going and coming out of a turn. I run the TLR 8ight X.

Ciao adam ti posso chiedere ché rapporti usavi qui perché la sento cortissima

[@marcowerner8739]

That engine revs so freaking high. What engine is that and who modded it? It is too lean on the high speed needle? It just revs so freaking high!!! Sounds great but I want my engine to rev that high too but also last for a while ;).

[@AdamDrake]

Yes, it's the OS Speed B21AD2 engine that was broken-in using my break-in service. It's not modified. I have them available if you like. Please feel free to email me at [e-mail]

[@marcowerner8739]

@@AdamDrake not modified?? I will order and have you break it in for me. Please look out for my email. Goodness gracious that engine is a beats!

You got that right!

[@claydrummer05]

Adam, how do you get it so lean without damaging the engine? That little os is screaming! Are these engine just capable of more Rpms? I feel like I would pop my motor if I tried to get it to go like that 😅

[@AdamDrake]

To me, this is a good race tune and not hard on the engine when using a good fuel like Flash Point 30%.

[@LukesVintageRC]

Legendary driver as you tell👍

[@AdamDrake]

Thank you very much!

[@sn47som]

So whos modding your engines?? or is it 40 % nitro? anyway engine sounds great!! is it your signature OS engine?

[@AdamDrake]

No modification to the engine. It's the OS Speed B21AD2 with Flash Point 30% fuel.

[@KruseNStuff]

Awesome! Subbed up!

[@AdamDrake]

Thank you!

[@pitman909]

How fast are these lil cars always wanted one ikw they are very expensive tho

[@AdamDrake]

We gear the vehicles to have a good balance of acceleration and top-speed for the off-road tracks. The top speed with this gearing is about 40mph.

Awesome skills though Dude, Wowsers and how the heck do you land all that so smoothly even! But Where's "any" Turn-Related-Racing-Lines in this track? too much of "all one thing": Yuk!
