I was at Pier Park yesterday, but knew that I would put the Traxxas in its bag and head there again this morning. Of course I put on shorts and sandals for the first time in 2014 as well.
The two NiMH were attached in series so I had quite a good go at it today. I don't feel as though I forgot how to steer it over the winter. At least there are only a few new scrapes from today's outing. It goes like a bat out of hell. I have never used the adapter to run the batteries in parallel. I guess it can top 60 miles per hour when running lithium cells.
Unfortunately I could not hold my phone and the controller, so all I could manage was this 8 second clip accelerating from one end of the asphalt section of the old pier.
