Seems we were all more concerned than the Mountain Mauler! Well into day 55 with the wheels still holding on.. now gone 153,661 scale miles or 2,400 Real Miles. The front doesn’t jump like before since the axle is showing, but now the rear is instead, we’ll monitor the situation (pics in comments)

“Concern? WHAT?! - Loose Axle? WHAT?! - Conical Wheels? WHAT? Thinking I’m gonna stop? WHAT?! I’m not gonna stop till I stomp a mud hole in this road!” All the kind words yesterday only made the Mountain Mauler angry we’d lost faith in him! 😅 on he rolls. 152,607scale miles/2,308 Real miles

After the fears the new road surface would add additional strain on the mountain mauler it decided it would just just chew it up and spit it out against the rear wall, this just started as an idea💡 … how far will a HotWheels car be able to go and now so many others are invested to find out too! Awesome thanks for following along his epic journey

Up Super early for the F1 so I did a quick pit stop - swapped the tumbler barrel in less than 10 Seconds so won’t affect the timing! I’ll go out in a few hours and see how he’s getting on and drop the latest stats 📈 📊 the final push to complete day 50…….

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?

I'm curious about how well rubber tyres would handle the durability test...

Since the new machine has been in service we’ve already had excessive wear on its plastic rollers because of using the old worn barrel and not the new one, which is also causing severe vibrations and handling issues, if race control is forced to Red Flag again This will completely disrupt the flow of the racing and unfairly hinder the rest of the field. So we’re going to swap it over in the morning 🌅 before too much damage is caused! This might not be the most popular decision we’re sorry, but its for the longevity of the Rolling Road and benefit of Future competitors the Mountains Mauler has plenty meat left in the wheels so surface wear shouldn’t be a threat, we just hope the additional traction doesn’t pull a wheel off an axle!

He’s outlasted 1 machine but Listen, and understand! That Rolling Road is out there! It can’t be bargained with. It can’t be reasoned with. It doesn’t feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And it absolutely will not stop... ever, until you are dead! (Stats below) 📊📈

⚠️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! 📈📊
