Default Purge force

Ah yes, what ever happened to these. I saved up for months to get one when I was 14 for my Ultima Pro. First run on the track, torque metal adjustment knob inside came off and shorted it out. Felt like smashing it to pieces!!!

When Noel thought he was ready to start marketing those speedies, we tested them out for a few months. He ended up selling two models and both of them were great. The blue cased one was the top of the line model, and both speedies were the first to be able to be turned off by holding on full brake for more then 5 secs. Noel was bought out by either Tekin or Novak and moved overseas with them for further development and when he left he was not allowed to make another speedie again for a lot of years. Last I heard, he was back up north and woring on a speed control for a full sized electric powered vehicle.

I doubt I still have any, but I'm sure I may have a original instruction leaflet for the Force, will let you know

Hey Mate, had a dig around and found the original manual for a Purge Force, the top of the range model. Found in the Tekin TSC-410k box with the tekin speedy. I had forgotten about a 410 S that I also have, thats in a Losi XX Team car
I could be persuaded to swap the manual for a set of CAT 3000 rims if you got some. If not, let us know what you may want to swap for it. Cars I have in the restore stage at moment are a couple of Mid Pros, a Ultima, the original ladder chassie one, first model released or even some modern stuff that suitable for a Team Assoc FT T4 or BJ4WE
