  • @gummel82 NOOO!!!

  • @astrialkil Partly to reduce inertia as other people told you, but aluminium is also much easier to machine so they can do it faster, their cutting tools last longer, and everything ends up costing less. Also, aluminium is cheaper than good quality stainless steel - though it's not as strong. Titanium is more expensive than st. steel but then it's also stronger (and lighter).

  • JUST beautiful

  • @gummel82 No. Top fuel uses a completely different setup.

  • i have no idea how this works :)

  • But will it blend? Answer is no, this will fucking BLEND a Blendtech blender though

  • beautiful

  • The question is will it burn?

  • @gummel82 works similar..but they have 7 clutch's, not 3

  • How much?
