hi, i dont understand why you let guys run the earth magnets on a tee jet chassis to get tracktion and not allow magnatraction chassis that are made to do that, in less its the tee jet bodies you are wanting to run, then i see , but the magnatracktion bodies look good and there are some good bodies to pick from too. thanks

That's a fair question, and deserves a good answer. Magnatraction cars gain more than traction from those oversized magnets. That is the reason the armature is actually detuned from the early AFX's. (which used the mean green.) A Magna Traction built to Gasser specs would be at an advantage over a T Jet Type even if the T jet uses traction magnets, in the opinion of most racing organizations.
It is likely that Magnatractions will run in NTRA at some time, (especially with the advent of AW X tractions)
Magnatractions run in separate classes in most racing bodies.
I think for Moderate level classes Magnatracs need to be kept separate from conventional t jet types.
Hope that makes sense and maybe even satisfies you.

hi, thanksfor the info, but i still be live that if you are useing stock magnets the is not much difference between the two, by letting t jets get traction and magnatraction use stock set up and both use hot arms to stock the teejet would still come out on top the earth magnets are like hot magnets, we ues them in 1/24 scale motors from life like chassis for drag motors, but some people just like the x tracs for the all round eaze of building, need more xtrac racing . thanks

I did some rewiring on my slotcarinc.com track today to get it ready for some test and tune for the gasser race coming up. I made wiring to hook up 2 12 volt batterys to the track. I tryed a few stock t jets to see what they would do  . they took out the center island of the starting line. Im glad Rapid Richard was not standing there behind the tree ;D. I cant wait to get Tylers and my gasser cars on the track. They are still in the shop getting the final work done on the motors and heading to the chassie dyno ;D Just a note to the Florida Mafia group, the track is ready for some testing ;D look out Ohio  Swamper |
