Not that we have tons of new members each day, but we thought we would restructure this forum a little bit and use this spot for new members to introduce themselves.
Hi guys thanks for adding me.
And thanks for all the help getting my old childhood car and truck up and going.
I got back into the hobby about 9 years ago with my son. just like my dad and I did in the late 80s.

I second the recommendation of a Slash. Pretty durable and replacement parts are inexpensive. Not trying to discourage you but this hobby is expensive and $100 won’t go far.
Hey all! Name is Brad. I live near San Francisco and have an RC10T. It started life as a RC10 but was converted to 10T right after the trucks came out. It has a fluorescent yellow tub (painted Mopar hemi orange) and nose piece, A&L Lethal Weapon and...
Good morning. My son and I were using our Wal-Mart RC 's a lot in July/August so I decided to grab my RC-10 and gear off the shelf in the basement. Much to my surprise the ancient batteries held a decent charge and I started to run it around the...

Heh, don't leave those NiCads on the charger! My dad blew up the original battery pack for my RC10 that way!
I've since upgraded to a 6 cell 7.2V NiMH and trickle charger, and it makes me feel much safer when I leave it on for a long time! :lol:...
I decided to join because I couldn't find answers to the questions I had. I rebuilt an RC10T recently, and thanks to my buddy, I now have a pile of RC10 parts to try and make into a couple of cars. When I was a kid, the RC10 was the car to...

Hi all, just picked up an RC10 off the 'bay. I've been into RC planes and helis for years, but never got much into cars. Best one I had was a Black Wolf from Radio Shack back in the 1990s. Recently a buddy of mine got me to come to the local indoor...

Outstanding!! Thanks for the info. Yeah it looks like I missed the re re boat by about 5 years.
there are quite a few different tires that can fit on the jelly bean wheels.
keep your eye on ebay as they often show up on a weekly basis.
Definitely not new to the hobby, I joined the forum to meet fellow collectors.
I have a very extensive collection of RC10s - not for profit, lol.
