Sweet showing of what those mini baja cars are capable of! Looks real fun to drive. I'm assuming this is a college team? Where do you go?

that looks sweet, and wicked shots. But I wouldn've chosen a different song and had some of the actual audio of the car itself playing.

It was windy as hell out, and they are regulated to a 10hp briggs and stratton so it sounds like a glorified lawn mower, but through gearing and optimization we get going a little under 35mph

i saw one kind of like this at another college, but it must've been a different division or something, because it had a pretty nice bike engine and they were claiming that it could go well over 100mph. sick video tho
