The fastest R/C car in the world leaves your car in the dust

99.99% of us will never have the opportunity to participate in a speed race at El Mirage or Bonneville. Most of us won't even have the opportunity to ride in a car with a top speed of 200 miles per hour, like a Ferrari Enzo or a Bugatti Veyron, let alone drive one. If you come from humble beginnings but still want the thrill of driving a vehicle at 200 miles per hour, there is still hope.

Nic Case solves this problem with a little orange bullet. Nic holds the official Guinness World Record for the fastest battery-powered RC car called the "R/C Bullet", reaching an impressive 188 mph, breaking his previous record of 171.96 mph. The car was built from the ground up by Nic himself and features a unique drive system and body designed in a wind tunnel to achieve high downforce and low drag.

The technical and design challenges Nic faced are very similar to those of life-size land speed cars. Power, weight and drag are all factors that influence the speed potential of this battery-powered dynamo. Conditions must be perfect, including air temperature, humidity and wind. High winds can disqualify speed records, which is why record certifiers often make multiple passes, sometimes in both directions, around the track to eliminate all outside influences. Check out the video of Nic's 188 mph run.... but don't blink.
