This year's speed running season wasn't to be due to persistent inclement weather...I'll spare you the details cuz seriously, who cares? AMIRITE? :-) I was perusing my archived videos and happened upon this (almost) forgotten prototype testing gem. For anyone who has ever wondered what it would look like when an Arrma Infraction approaches warp speed with an Insta360 GO 2 riding shotgun on the lip of an FC100 body....wonder no longer. This...is what it would ACTUALLY look like. No CGI or trick cinematography. This is the business end of a first gen. Dilithium powered Warp Core propulsion system. Preliminary tests were, though close, all sub-warp up to this point. Speeds north of warp 1 are slated for the summer of 2024, God willing. Thanks for watching :-)

I'm fairly fastidious about bearing maintenance on my vehicles and I wanted to see if the juice is worth the squeeze. I realize this test isn't scientific as the amount of the initial impulse isn't quantified. What I can say is that it was just a moderately firm spin. This wasn't some ridiculous rip, just a "normal" pull. The bearings being tested are the ceramic hybrid that came with my Joe Diaz spool, which I purchased in March of 2021. So they've seen two years of speed running (to be fair, winters aren't nearly as active for obvious reasons). I think they did alright and demonstrate that, for one, Joe Diaz delivers his spools with high quality bearings and I don't think I'm leaning too far out the window when I say that regular maintenance has kept them in good working order.
