Video: Rocket car at the 2008 R/C Speed Challenge U.S. round
This was pretty cool to watch. Its a rocket car that travels along a wire laid down on the track. The engine is ignited and the wire guides the car. The designer has claimed almost 200 mph with this car on previous runs. He had some issues with the guide wire during this run. This was exiting to see.
Video: Derek's streamliner
Derek's car is a modified Tamiya TAO5. Max speed from these runs is about 85 mph, I believe.
Video: Nic Case's 155 mph pass
Nic Case made 2 passes at the 2008 R/C Speed Challenge. The first pass was at 155 mph and the second was 161 mph. This is video of the first pass. Thanks to Derek for the video. More video and information on the results will be posted soon.
