I am looking for a Dr. Rockets 54/2800 case with closures but also interested in any Dr. Rockets or monster motor cases and matching closures.
 
I'm not sure they made a 2800 case before they quit production.....I could be wrong though..
 
I have a Dr. Rockets 54/2560, and a Monster Motors 54/2560. That was the largest each made - from the Dr. Rockets website:

Okay thanks for the info. Wasn't aware they didn't make that size. Still interested in other Dr. Rockets and Monster motor cases. I like having an abundance of colors 😊.
