Are you going to sell them, Harry? Do we need to pre-order?

No sir. This has been a long term test program involving a few of us for the new program at SCC.

Any names of the motors you feel are "hokey", then I am to blame.

I pray that's a ff50 slimline that spins 14000 and makes 150cm of torque

Well it's impossible to make motors for every "spec" out there. These are not FF Slimlines.

We have great slimlines with The Minnow and MT SL-1.

Looking forward to hearing the details on these! The FK-180 type definitely looks interesting!
Wonder if this might make for an alternate for the Land Speed & Drag 2017 proxy?
"Small block" ---> Pirahna
"Big Block" ---> "Mystery" motor

That FK -180/NC5/Baby King type is a milder option. It is close to the Baby King and will be a decent low cost alternative. I was a fan of the Baby King but not the pricetag.

Harry - that is even better news! I am a fan of the Baby King as well - but like you, not a big fan of the price - so that is great news! :D

No sir. That is a new motor as well, but it's a basic replacement for Scalextric. The motor shaft is splined on the Gator just as the Scalextric, so you can use the stock plastic pinions.
