[I finally got around to splitting the inredible amount of thread drift on zapping FK-style motors from Rick "The Retro game has changed..." thread. As is the norm when threads are split, the discussion will seem to start out of nowhere and may seem a little disjointed at times. - Cheater]
Yes, Ray, then they take them to get them zapped on a cobalt magnet zapper because they don't impound them at the raceway.
But that's the choice they made for a hand-out motor system. Heck, if you get more than one good one you can give/sell one of yours to someone else. I sure wish we had that system here... not.
If you think you can make an FK motor go faster by zapping it, please DO!!!
And buying five motors for a hand-out race?? Wow, I just got to the cost of one PD!! Of course, what are the odds the ONE PD I bought is a missile or a dog??? Hmmmm, maybe I'll have to buy another one!! Then I'm out the cost of ten FKs!!
But - that's racing isn't it!!
