Just got some extra 16t CrawlMasters finished up. What do you guys think? 16t CM? 35t TorqueMaster? Something a bit slower?

With the speed controls being Castle Creations products I think we're safe with either of those...I'd like to see the 16t CM's in this one for some giddy up and GO

The 16t motors have lower torque ripple, so they will be a bit easier on the ESCs than the TM version. I'll go that way!

Maybe I will put em in some really trick custom cans I have been working on. I think we just went from a $80 pair of motors to a $250 pair of motors

Well, it all depends on how much I value the machine time If I want to include programming and tooling costs it will make em a $500 pair.

The trick stuff adds up quick




I don't know why I am surprised, I have seen it here before. The generosity of this community is second to none when someone is legitimately in need.

I really wish I was in a position to give more that the humble amount I have, It makes me smile to see how many of us have chipped in, regardless the amount.

I hope things normalize for you soon Don. Contact me if there is anything I can do to help that is not monetary.

Rich, every little bit counts. I just saw your tickets get stuffed in the envelope (I recognized your name this time ) and it isn't a small deal. It is a big deal!


Many thanks to those who are donating, Don will appreciate it and we all appreciate it! Big ups to Cali, they are showing really strong in picking up tickets.

Tickets purchased! Wish I could buy more but I just can't swing it now.

I figured that If I won the auction, I would do something cool with the truck. If I do win it, I'm going to turn around and sell the truck and donate 100% of the proceeds to Don. I don't need another comp truck right now as mine is built pretty much identically to this one minus the axles.



Those motors sound pretty sick John!

I'll check ticket sales monday, I just did custom motor orders today and didn't look at fresh orders since yesterday.

I've been taking suggestions from my team on what they need for motors, and we will be rolling those suggestions into these motors.

Are you actually sending the other half of the tickets to the people that buy them?

I am still relatively new to this community in that I don't actually know most of you, that being said, this is a great all around community of people with a passion for life that I am very proud to be a member of. I purchased some tickets and my prayers have been sent. I hope to be able to buy some more tickets when I get some money, but I will do what I can as I can.

Yes, and recording the numbers here in case somebodies tickets get lost or take too long to arrive. I plan to do the drawing and wait a few days to see if the winner can figure it out. More suspense that way

That's good, I don't know if I got my tickets yet. I think I had an envelope with something in it and never opened it, now I can't find it.
