Not positive, but I'm guessing it was no label handouts from one of the Columbus Ohio races. Either the ’91 Roar Truck Nats or one of the Winter Champs races. Or maybe a Bud’s Racing Products, had a bunch of them since he was the local hero, and sponsored a lot of the local series and trophy races, including the truck nats.
Still have a bunch of them, including lots of other brands, both Epic and Yokomo based if I remember correctly. Probably have 40 or 50 of them with various labels up to about ’95. Never payed much attention to the brands since I rebuilt them all immediately anyway, just cared about which base since they needed different gearing.
Boy do I like brushless, no more new motor for each car every big race or every couple weeks.

i have a few buds motors from a race at coopers in VA, i remember the hotel that night. every 5 mins you would hear a thud on the concrete walkway, and a door slam. every one there popped those damn things open and turned em.
had alot of CAM motors, cause a buddy was sponsered.

Honest!
Well, except for maybe gently squeezing the tabs down a little, just to be sure…..
