The sound never gets old, and hearing it on a moving chassis outside is just fricken amazing

Johnny, you should mill out some 1 piece rotors for that blower and open up the ports so it actually flows air.

I have dreamed of seeing a V8 RC car since I was like six thank you for making this I couldn’t stop smiling

[blueexnetic]

The effort and determination of this guy is insane. Every time I see one of your video's in my for you page I don't even hesitate to click on them. I am proud to be one of your 1.87M subscribers!

You need to ensure the fuel tank remains pressurised by feeding exhaust pressure into it. this way, fuel is always forced into the engine.

It stalls sideways because the wheels have stopped turning ! It’s lost its forward momentum, at low rpm you have practically no torque available from the motor, it’s not a diesel engine & you have a huge flat spot in the power.

That is becoming some serious automotive design, i mean that colling and exhaust, you grow my man!

That rc has 4 more cylinders than my Subaru 💀

I'm just impressed with how well it starts, I've seen lots of others struggle with these.

Φίλε Έλληνας είσαι σε βλέπω τόσο καιρό και δεν με πήγε ο νους ότι είναι Έλληνας. Μπράβο ρε φίλε συγχαρητήρια, τέλεια βιντεάκια

I’ve been watching since you got the V8 and I’m stoked to see it driving and skidding around bro, well done 🙏

A heavier flywheel may help with the shutoff problem.

Best v8 rc ive seen running an driving so far on YouTube....❤

My guess is rotor shaft flex and the tolerances of the supercharger synchro gears:
-That tri-lobe rotor looks to be a 3D ratio, with 3 segments I doubt it has the rigidity to stay straight under boost.
-The synchro gears would need to have insanely tight tolerances and sub tenth backlash to maintain the lobe seal with such small gears/rotors. Even operating with a wet seal design.

-If you do decide to make your own rotors, may I suggest a helical tri-lobe.

I will like to shrink myself so I could drive it. Dispite the repairs it needs I still find it perfect and awesome. Great work Johnny.

U could cut a two slots into the metal, to maintain balance of the clutch and into the friction material, and use two dowel pins plus a lil glue to keep it from delaminating!! Just a thought!! Keep it up, love the Vidz!!!!

[thegarynator]

This thing is so dang cool! Thanks for sticking with it and continuing to share!

[triynizzles]

I would love to see new rotors for the supercharger!! There's so many videos out there with little superchargers and turbochargers for micro engines like this and none of them ever work. it's so sad I want to see one that works. you can do it!!

[waynewilliams]

Just get the four- stroke sound is amazing. Phenomenal piece of engineering all around!!

[DAVE]

I bet youre so happy to see it coming together. I know your viewers are. Way cooler than normal RC cars nitro or battery. Well done.
