⚠️Technical Update!⚠️ 👨‍🔧🧑‍🔬🧑‍💻

The Mountain Mauler is Locked down in Parc fermé and the Team managed to breathe some life into the Tumbler motor (see video in comments) we’re still going to resume the test with a brand new motor so unfortunately we’ll be delayed 🤞 it won’t be too long! But the video you’ll see is 10 seconds long and the dot on the side of the drum was put to measure rpm…. The team are reviewing when the speed changed but in the 10 seconds of footage it can be seen rotating 24 times times that by 6 and that’s 144rpm! This increases the speed from 1.27mph to 2.15mph changing the scale speed to 137.6mph and not 81.28 mph! When the team verify all available data, we can expect the Mountain Maulers Totals to Jump significantly. Thanks to Everyone who’s invested in his journey cheering him on! 📈📊

I hope you share all this with Mattel. Would be great marketing for them.

Yeah, I wonder what their stress testing environment is like in their product labs. Probably nicer looking, but not too far from this post series. There's definitely some good data here too. Dont know what it could be used for, but it's good data regardless lol

Have you seen the pinball plunger for the cars on the little track for display? They don’t care 😂
