What is the 46 racing spinner and is it a different from the standard G21 46?

What is the 46 racing spinner and is it a different from the standard G21 46?
I haven't heard of that before, presumably they mean a spinner with a backplate combined with a thrust washer (replacing the stock thrust washer). But the G21/46 and "racing" don't seem to go together. I would guess the G21/29 thrust washer would fit a 46.
Where did you see a reference to this?

Yes, when I think of racing and Super Tigres with spinners, I think of the G15, with its spinner, or the G21/29 with its spinner. Other racing displacements are .40 and .65, like the X40, G40, G65, but no spinners.

I have a couple of G21 29s and that was the only one of the G-21 series that I remember coming with a spinner

The ' Racing ' spinners were avaliable seperately , as an ' accesory '.

Theres the .15 size , 21 series size . ( maybe a few 40 RV's came with them std. ) and the 60 size with bobbin backplate/ driver -
which should fit the 46 too , maybe . I assume the shaft is the same diameter there.
There were also two or three std. Super Tigre domed ' Stunt ' spinners . but METRIC sized . 50 & I think 60 mm dia .
Some of Compostellas Tango's had those .
Been a few of all N I P on R C groups , over the years , and E Bay .

Think theyre 1 3/8 & ' Go On ' the 46 shaft , but may leave it a bit short . :(
Mayaswell put the full Two Pages on , as its a bit histronic , being the FIRST ABC & inventor & all .

Though somebodys lost 2 mph somewhere , maybe they found it later .

I saw a G21 46 on eBay where it had stated it had a racing spinner. Then there was no spinner pictured. I know what a spinner is but wondered if he was referring to something else. Anyway, thank you all for your inputs.
