    Good stuff Mr.Ford. I burnt out a NSR motor about a week ago. Shot can that came in my GT40 , being that it was done , I went into it. Dirt and dust was the killer being my set up is on the floor. I cleaned it out , but one side the contact brush was worn-out more than the other , but it ran fine . Truth be told , better than before , but I'm still getting that Predators 25k Ball B motor. Thanks for the info .

    This truer uses standard 5" self-adhesive backed sanding discs. You can cut them in half for dual grit readiness. The consumables costs are very low. The included squeeze bottle is provided to place droplets of water or isopropyl alcohol on the cloth and sandpaper. It acts as a lubricant that significantly reduces the strain on the motor and gears. It also helps keep any tire dust from dispersing. And of course it enhances cleaning and truing.
