112 kph/69.59 mph with Tamiya TA-05

I went to test my car with my friend last week, and I had several runs.
Before the last run I got 105 kph, and I got 112 kph for the last run.

By using google calculator I got: 112 kph = 69.5935735 mph

After passing the radar I continued to push my car more, and I got 77 mph with the venom speed meter which is installed in the car.

Note that the energy of the battery in the last two runs was almost fully dissipated. I tried to discharge it completely but i was unable to discharge it since the battery has low energy and its voltage was 12 and something. So I fully charged the battery, and I got 16.8v. I hope next time I run it with a fully charged battery.

The total gear ratio was 6.21, and I'm going to reduce it to 5.175.

below are the video and pictures of my test:
