As long as a brushed motors are far less expensive than brushless, there will be amarket for them and classes using them.

Right now there are two springs and one brush compound with a serrated face. It is a good racing compouind, not a throw away. We will have these parts at the race.

I am looking forward to trying out these motors Rick. The 766 is a great compound brush as well!

Any truth to the rumor I read about Associated closing the doors? If so that is nice to know now that I am fully vested in their products.

Rick- Really too bad about the Stockstar approval delay. We were looking forward to running a Reedy stocker again at the Carpet Nats. Just have to wait a little longer I guess.
