The goal is 70 mph. It’s amazing how fast it goes.
The Traxxas 1/10 scale Mercedes-Benz G63AMG 6×6 RC vehicle is a cool scale model off-roader right out of the box. Although it isn’t intended to go fast on the streets, a Harley Designs YouTube video shows that it is possible to do this after putting in a lot of effort. Harley Designs participated in the Monthly Mayhem Challenge, with the goal of driving the G63 AMG6x6 RC car 65 miles an hour (114.6 km per hour). That he has already accomplished. The goal now is to hit 70 mph (112.7 km/h). Additional upgrades include a larger motor. The underbody is flattened by pieces of carbon fiber and titanium fasteners. A diffuser is located at the rear. A big front splitter is also added by him. The rig now rides on belted wheels.
A long section of asphalt has been poured by the host, which appears to be intended for housing development. The G63 AMG 6×6 RCC car appears quite unstable during the tests. At speeds of over 62 mph (99.8 km/h), even the smallest steering input can cause the machine to become unstable. The driver then moves to another location with a longer straight section. The RC car almost crashes during its first run due to a crest on the road. The GPS indicates a maximum speed of 70 mph.
You can move further down the road without worrying about hitting the jump at high speed. The speed limit for the first attempt is 72 mph (115.9 km/h). Another 72-mph attempt will be made. After some maintenance, the final attempt yields a top speed at 73 mph (11.5 kph). The modified RC car can easily reach speeds of 70 mph, but the owner wants to go faster. He suggests that adjusting the gearing could be a way of increasing the maximum speed.
