Ghetto quickturns - 09-30-2005, 12:16 PM

I'm ordering more bearings to make additional Ghetto Quickturns for my Revo. Does anyone else want one? I'll order more bearings if anyone else wants one.

Cool. Order me up one. I'll give the quickturn mod a try .

What else would I need? I'm assuming a spare driveshaft?

Yeah, the ones I make will work with the ext. chassis. I'll get 2 bearings for each of you. It's good to have a spare cuz OWBs all go out sooner or later. It's a good thing I had a spare in Dallas cuz I needed it.

I'm going to be making up an extended one for myself also. I've got a Vantage Extended CF chassis coming soon.

Obsessive, I'll be one of the very first, if not the first, to have the Vantage CF extended chassis because of my friendship with Bruce at www.rushrc.com who is the largest seller of Vantage stuff.

Also, I drove their chassis in the US Monster Truck Nationals and wore their hat for the photos. I also ran a TNT Modded TZ www.tntmods.com and am sponsored by them now also.

Vantage is still having minor issues with the finish on the chassis', it's not shiny enough, but they are basically ready for distribution.


No problem Gabe, the bearings will be here by Weds. Do you want me to make you up an extended Ghetto Quickturn? John? I'll do the first one for you guys and then give you the second bearing to make your own. Ok?

Rocco, I get a free vantage CF extended Revo chassis and I get my motor mods at %50 plus extras t-shirts and stickers/banners etc.

A ghetto quickturn is a homemade Quickturn just like the RD Racing Products unit that costs $80. But mine costs $13 and 20 mins. work.

Wondering if Traxxas likes that nomenclature?
