Grom I had to get another one.

[Badmofreaker]

I figured since I totally modified my speed grom and never played around with it stock ,I had to get one. My speed grom broke good yesterday, won't be fixed for a week, have to order some parts and a motor, but it's the price you pay for going fast,so far 91 mph.

Ladies and gentlemen, on the right you’ll see a Typhon Grom. On the left you’ll see a motor with four wheels.
Hahaha loving it

I gotta ask....what exactly does Grom even mean and why exactly did the scale size trend reverse back to smaller? Seriously, everytime I hear or see Grom I picture Orcs approaching Helms Deep with the mother of all battering rams..........

We need an Arrma Nazgûl.

Already a drone called iflight nazgul would be better with a land vehicle tho, for that name imo.

When you go big ,for me it's hard to go small. I love 1/7 and larger if I want to play with something small I can always use my son's hot wheel cars

See, I always understood the concept when applied to crawlers. I'm almost always carrying mine out after a mishap. Doesn't sound like much but you try carrying an overweight scx10.iii for an hour or more... lol

Lol. I did. Backpack with drawcords that get wrapped around the axles by all 4 tires. But again, walk an hour or more with a backpack that was heavy enough to begin with but now you added 20 pounds. After doing that I understand why many women downsize the puppies when they get older

Yeah one hour carrying a heavy Rc even in a back pack can put a toll on ya. I say rent a mule or a donkey and throw that heavy Rc on it's back

I don't take videos of all my runs,I just do it for my enjoyment, but look on the speed run thread and you will see an 84 mph run not kph video that was done over a week ago,the next day I hit 87 mph,last Thursday 91 mph.

Yeah, those little motors are awesome, I crashed yesterday because pin broke in center shaft and went between pinion and spur gears causing it to bend the motor shaft,too much power, lol, new combo will be here Wednesday then back in business, hopefully hit 100 next weekend

do the diffs hold up to brushless power? if so I would get a grom don't understand why they don't come brushless anyway. or at leased do a brushless version.
