T-Jet Racer

Hello, I am not looking to get crazy with these chassis, I just want to
re-shoe and brush them, does anyone know where to get "stock" type replacement parts at a decent price? I need to freshen up 30 chassis so it will get costly quick. These will just be for running and not racing. Thanks

American Line sells stock shoes, or the bay. Wizzard sells brushes

Although not stock, Wizzard makes good brushes and Slottech makes good pick-up shoes. Both will add some performance to your car with not much extra money involved.
Wizzard E81 T-Jet copper carbon composite brushes 1 Pair $1.75
Slottech 1440 T-Jet Pickup Shoes. Plain. Improved Material, low arcing.$2/pr

If you're gonna replace the stock dome brushes with the Wizzard E81s.
If the commentator has a groove worn in it from the stock brushes you might get some arcing on the com because the Wizzard brushes are flat.
I use the Wizzard E81 brushes on all my T-Jets and I won't even put power to one until I change the dome brushes.
I like them.

Superfist I think he's talking about stock Aurora T-Jets, which use flat brushes.
One other good choice for brushes are JB Thunderbrushes. I like the height of wiz brushes but find the faces of JB's to be flatter and less pitted.
If you want to cut costs (just runners ya say) stock shoes can clean up fairly nice and easy.

Oh No! I just had a real brain fart and I'm really embarrassed.
Yes Aurora cars do have flat brushes.
