couldn't be found. I would suggest replacing the \'s with /'s.
: I've built my Championship sprint wheel prototype using skateboard wheel bearings. Dead cheap and works great!

: : hello. I have been thinking on a spinner hack for a month now and all seemed ok but today I say something and I realized I have been looking in all the wrong places. "radio controll race cars" not the budget ones at wal mart. I am talking the $$$ ones. MY brother and My brother in law have these. the price scared me away from the toys (i mean thay cost as much as my work truck)Today my brother in law broke his axcel. I thought game play was over. nope he pulled out his tool kit a boom it hit me. the frigin axel and barings in this thing is perfect for what I want. thay gave me the old axcel and a catalog. Tower hobbies, the price is cheep for the bearings. These things are even up to military standards on noise and precision tolerance. I see prices from $6.00 to 50.00 big diff. but I am thinking a $6.00 one will be fine and a wheel and rim might look cool to. I plan on trying this and will keep you posted. Has anyone tried this? I have a web page to try out still its is listed below. fare worning I have not been there yet myself.
