Talking When will Black Knight win with an RDX

Can anyone suggest a place (Sydney) that can print motor stickers. Must be the proper ones usually found on stock motors that are heat proof.

Maxspeed Design do some awesome work. Although they are in USA, shipping is only about US$15 and they do a lot of work for major companies/drivers.

I thought at first that the stickers were a good indication on the cans. I am just starting to find out now that they really say diddly squat. If you notice, the rpm is at 5v, not 7.2. The moment you change brushes and/or springs, the figures would change. Also, more higher cap batteries, the figures change again. Might be OK for straight from the box, but thats it.

Yeah I suppopse it can be product. . However I have maintained that battery matching is nothing special. It is all about doing a job and having the right price.

Considering the winner of the State title was supplied a motor direct from the USA supplier, a motor with specs the general punter will never see. (This info was supplied by the importer) Maybe that is why you qualified so well also.

Anyhow, off topic. Thanks Molky for the information. They have a great website.

If i could get my hands on the stock motors Mr Tomic preps for himself i'd kick his a$$. I hoping Dan will hook me up with some mid digit motors, with cool stickers to match my bling.

Thermal trans stickers would be cool, when combined with a heatsink.

And everyone thanks you for it for selling 1.225+ packs for $80.00 . Its like everyone has suddenly become sponsored/supported driver with Ferals

Im also trying to do the same with Deadset motors. All motors are the same, Its in the prep with the right equipment and the right price.

I admit we haven't won any States or National, but if anyone here can give me any motor that can win me a state or national then I will be happy to shut up shop.

Many a brush hood tool has been lost in 'tuning' those motors.
