Default Jared Tebo's FT GT ??

Hey guys just curious how is Jared using the quick change wheels on his FT GT. Could a person adapt the losi ones on to it or is someone machining him a set. Is anyone going to make a set for the GT.

I have seen tebo's gt in person. If people knew how many parts that arent available to the public that he has on there, there wouldnt be as many people thinking that the gt can hang with the xxx-nt ad2 in races.

NO ONE CAN. Losi has a patent on that and it would be damn near impossible to make a quick change assembly with out it resembling Losi's.

Losi isn't the only people to make them the have been on touring cars for years and years so associted can make them if they want.

I think Associated may have had quick change parts on 1/8 scale onroad years ago, at least as aftermarket parts.

They can be adapted to the GT if you really want it. I don't want it, so I'm not gonna bother. and if that's the only thing you think there is to be liked about the AD2, you're sorely mistaken.
bent, AE's 1/8 onroads predated the quick change wheels.
evader, again, not on TC's, but yes on 1/8 onroads.
rushdude, how can losi patent something that's been used for many years in 1/8 onroad?

anyhow, where ARE these pics of Tebo's GT?
I'm startin to hope AE doesn't rehash the GT again soon, because that means i need ANOTHER ST, lol.

T bird there are 1/8th and 1/10 on roads that have them and you are right there is more to be liked on the ad2 then the axles it is a sweet truck.

From what I have heard they got a patent on it since they were the only company who tried. I guess ae never attempted to get a patent. I will call someone I know who works at horizon to see how they did it. I am not sure if they did get a patent, I know they were trying too.
