I put a set of these in the 45t variety in my new XR10 and love them. The 2 page detailed how to that came with them was awesome as well.

I will be buying some 45T....Sooner the better on these items...Would like to
receive them before my XR kit arrives. Love the TorqueMaster's

JohnRobHolmes · 08-19-2010, 04:58 AM

The plan is to finish them up right as the XR's get into the US. We had planned to have them sooner, but some very large international orders (from germany of course) snatched up our 45t's in bulk!

Grizzly4x4 · 08-19-2010, 09:27 AM

I will be getting an XR10 so I'll be needing a set John.

Will these be zero timed or timed for front and rear use?

Reflection · 08-19-2010, 10:18 AM

I've been running a 20t hand wound in my rock racer for a while now. Kickass little motor. I'll be ordering another this weekend when I get home for a scaler. My Bergs getting a bit weak, may just pick up a couple for it as well.

JohnRobHolmes · 08-19-2010, 10:37 AM

I can advance the timing for you if you please. It will be an option on my site, with front and rear motor indication. Otherwise motors are generally set at zero timing so that there isn't a 50/50 chance of retarded (destructive) timing.

i run a 19t handwound in my no class tlt truck and it's a blast to drive..

my berg needs a refreash for the new season coming. i'm down for a pair of 35t.

Wild Snapper · 09-01-2010, 07:24 AM

Nice, please put me down for 1 set of 45's.
Will they be listed on your site or will you contact us when they are set and ready to go? Thanks

JohnRobHolmes · 09-01-2010, 07:29 AM

I will put them up on the site when they are ready. Just a few more days here.

RIG_RIDER · 09-03-2010, 07:32 PM

Your site still shows them as out of stock, and it's been a couple of days.....

Let folks know when they are in stock so we can buy them, you do like money............right?

JohnRobHolmes · 09-03-2010, 08:44 PM

I like money, but I don't like preselling products. Even if it is just a few days out. If I have to scoot to nationals before the motors are complete it could be two weeks before shipment, worst case scenario.

RIG_RIDER · 09-03-2010, 10:17 PM

Thanks for the update.

Wild Snapper · 09-07-2010, 07:48 AM

Any new updates? Before nationals? 2 weeks? Just curious. I know perfection takes time

.

JohnRobHolmes · 09-07-2010, 07:52 AM

I'm leaving tomorrow, so not before nationals I am afraid.

losikid · 09-11-2010, 04:42 PM

strawb · 09-12-2010, 05:49 AM

its out of stock in your shop store?

and i cant seem to find the option to send you PM's ....

anyways kindly do shoot me a PM on how i can get a hold of these

cheers

JohnRobHolmes · 09-13-2010, 03:45 AM

Just got the 45t done and ready to go, 35t motors will be done in a few days. After a bit more nap (couldn't sleep well last night) I will put them up on the site today. The first lot is actually pretty tight, only a few stragglers messing up the variance between them all.

JohnRobHolmes · 09-13-2010, 08:16 AM

Got em on the site! So that people are not confused by 100 motor options on my site, I simply rolled this into the current TorqueMaster Pro product. They are after all, just the same motor with a bit more work involved. Just select the "Pair" in the Wind dropdown, and enter your vehicle type if you want them timed. Super easy!
