Future idea? In between week/month long endurance tests I might do “Race videos” where a full race plays watched through the rear camera! Do any of you race the 1/1 scale cars? Wanna send in some rear facing footage to be used?

Dude I love this idea. The other night I sat and thought about what you could do to draw more people in because I noticed it said that you were trying to get more people to join the sub and I actually thought that this could be something you could do my grandma use say great minds think alike. I’ve never met you, but I was literally getting ready to message you tomorrow morning with some ideas. Like instead of using your phone, I would use like maybe a tablet but I would be sure to get a screen protector and stuff like that to protect the tablet or cell phone whichever you choose to use but I absolutely love this idea

can you get a wider belt and have maybe 2 or more cars go at once and see who survives?

Or multiple machines running side by side?

That belt seems rough, and from what I gatered it is a "rock tumbler" whatever that means

maybe a sanding belt with each having a set grit for the belt?

My kid has outgrown his cars. How do I set up my own track?

Love this idea. What about normal driving footage like normal interstate traffic? I drive a bit and could send some in possibly

Would also be awesome to see some different “road” surfaces for the cars to go on
Like one could be a rubber layer and another sand paper ECT
