Roman Atwood goes huge and launches a Traxxas XO-1 at 100 mph

There are a load of activities that you can carry out with a remote controlled vehicle, but when you have a machine built for speed, what is the point if you aren’t going to push the limits?

With a name like Roman Atwood, you know that everything is going to be on a grand scale and when he gets his hands on a remote control machine, the results are no different.

This time, Roman gets to play around with a Traxxas XO-1, a little rig that is capable of speeds of 100 mph and every last ounce of momentum is used in this one.

We watch as this speedy little devil is zoomed up to its limits and launched off of a ramp and into the air where it gets some pretty remarkable hang time before coming down with a crushing bang.

Now, as you might imagine, after being launched vertically at 100 mph, the rig had just a little bit of damage done. Check out the video below to see how it faired with all of that hang time.
