Motor upgrades for flux? Also question on wheel wideners

[Finnster]

Ext chassis, 1521, and even SavXL wideners, 40 series. I have a SavXL, and I have not had a bearing failure in over a yr of use. I just pulled them all out for cleaning & oil, and the OEM ones were still super smooth.
Basically that exactly what I got. :) Be careful as the weight does add up. Mine is a pork-u-pine, but it fookin rocks. Makes my Revo look actually 1/10th scale.

It is a long but interesting tale. Aye, just a year ago:

Dear Jane,
I do not have any money so am sending you this drawing I did of a spider instead.
I value the drawing at $233.95 so trust that this settles the matter.

Dear Jane,
Are you sure this drawing of a spider is the one I sent you? This spider only has seven legs and I do not feel I would have made such an elementary mistake when I drew it.

Regards, Finn.

Dear Finn,
Yes it is the same drawing. I copied and pasted it from the email you sent me on the 8th.
David your account is still overdue by the amount of $233.95.
Please make this payment as soon as possible.

Yours sincerely, Jane Gilles

Hello, I am back and have read through your emails and accept that despite missing a leg, that drawing of a spider may indeed be the one I sent you. I realise with hindsight that it is possible you rejected the drawing of a spider due to this obvious limb ommission but did not point it out in an effort to avoid hurting my feelings. As such, I am sending you a revised drawing with the correct number of legs as full payment for any amount outstanding. I trust this will bring the matter to a conclusion.

Regards, Finn.

I understand and will definitely make a payment this week if I remember. As you have not accepted my second drawing as payment, please return the drawing to me as soon as possible. It was silly of me to assume I could provide you with something of completely no value whatsoever, waste your time and then attach such a large amount to it.

Regards, Finn.

LMFAO

Have you considered kershawdesigns gear ?

[Slowkrawl]

HAHAHAHAAH, holy shit that story made me laugh.

[lincpimp]

Good one Finn! I really like that. Thanks for the laugh!

So I am guessing that due to Freezy calling your drawing skilz out he did indeed think the tiny novak motor he linked to would be a good upgrade for the flux... Hmm, I think it has more to do with him than the cold weather...

[rabosi]

Funny bit Finnster.

[Gee]

That is great Finn! I want to pull that one on some creditors of my own.

Don't be too tempremental freeze. We all get razzed by one another once in a while. It keeps us from asking the same stupid questions and stops us from making the same stupid response, more then once. lol Sorry, I had to raz you also. I suppose you were lucky to be here when it happened. I could only imagine what kind of flame job some of those more ruthless sites would have put on you. So pick up your balls and come back out and play.

[Bondonutz]

Finnster,
I've also noticed your spider has a 1 segmented body whereas all spiders have a two segmented body.
So my question is; Does your spider have his face on his ass or is it the other end ?

BTW, great story screwing with the creditor.

[blueb8llz]

that was pretty funny finn. i didnt even bother reading it at first, then i read on page 2 of this thread and saw the comments on it, so i decided to read it.

im surprised the creditor was so patient and even responded back the way she did.
