Interesting little gems just popped up in a bag of stickers i received recently. It took me a little while to visualize where these actually went.....
....but they are an original row of the REEDY stickers that went on the Reedy broken-in AE Igarashi 05 stock motors, and they came from an ex-Reedy sponsored driver.
There are 9 in total. Super-oldies and quite an unusual find. There must be plenty of these motors with ropey or missing Reedy stickers. Not sure whether these belong in the Electronics section but hey-ho, nice to have.
CAT SWB&XL, Meteor (x3), RC10 custom, RC10 Graphite, Goldpan, 870c (x2), Works 91, Samurai, Pro Radiant (x2), Mini Mustang&Maxima, Mid Turbo, TOP Hybrid , Coyote, Hot Trick Optima, Supercharge, Brimod, 'Rory Cull' Hotshot, SRB.
I´m not sure but think the Reedy version was a selected and dyno tested version of the Associated 05 motor.
Similar to the Parma Turbo Renault vs Parma Renault motor.
I ran stock truck the most in the early to mid 90's and just for kicks I was trying to remember which 24*, 27-turn, NON-rebuildable stock motors Reedy stuck their labels on and what year they came out. I think this is all of them, If you guys...
I have a fair number of my old Reedy Ultra motors, the ones which were identified by the series of coloured 'Dots' and in some cases 'Stars'. I have had a few rebuilt recently, but over the years literally all of my original motors have...
I got a nice condition JRX2 roller come through from ebay.us (postage & customs was twice what I won the car for :? ) It was fitted with this Reedy 'ES' stock motor. I've never seen this motor before & wondered what sort of era it comes from - the...

Well The slam method is what we used BITD when the hand out motors went south. :shock: :roll:
When Reedy stock motors were sold, was it an option to have the caps, and plug soldered on, or was it just hit or miss when the pack was bought.
Here are two examples of the same motor, same part number, but one is soldered, while the other is not....

That's interesting, I don't remember them being soldered up but then there was also that associated motor you got from me with the blue plug. Hard to say with Associated!
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve looked at this motor and never realized that the word Super is an additional decal on top of the can sticker. Why is this? I’ve seen plenty of Mr. Outlaw motors without it. Is there a difference?...

While doing the brushed motor guide, I frequently encountered confusing and conflicting info like this. :? Nevertheless, I've added these motors with the specs contained here.
Hello,
Can you guys please post a few pics of motor repro stickers? And add info on where you got them from?
I'd like to get some but still unconvinced..
Thanks!

I'm trying to figure out a motor combo to run in a Clodbuster at next year's vintage nationals. All the classes require 27T motors. I don't know of any adjustable timing or zero degree 27T motors. I was thinking of trying a pair of Sport Tuned...

I asked him and he just said that he wired one for reverse rotation and didn't do anything about the timing.
Thanks for the tip Temple, I gotta keep an eye out for those motors.
