How do you class the motors ?

Are there any good websites out there.

I think id love to do this a few nights in the winter months to come :thumbsup

The track you run on does it have a dead spot after the finish line or does the controller have the power to let off the trigger ?

My brother and I used to race these for a few years at JJ speedway back in my young days (13 ish :rolf )

Heres a fewI found on ebay, they seems simple but im clueless to the spec's

When I used to build motors I would just throw shit together, if it smokes and doesnt move well then I did somthing else till it moved LOL

you can pick up a roller used for about $25 to 200 depends on how fancy.
and about your motor question the #s are for how fast ex. 16d,s16d,12,15,20,27,and the fastest open and the bigger # the smaller and lighter the motor.and motors range from $15 to 250 stop up to lucky bobs on 59th and forest home will bring some for sale thanks matt:)
