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.
I play guitar and bash RC cars, older and newer, for fun.
Brand new to this forum, will be lurking and toe dip posting for a while.

Hi Doc and welcome aboard! :D I hail from a tiny burg near Springfield Il. Been in Al since '96 (I came here for the Waffle House :wink: ). We have a lot of members from Il; I reckon RC was very popular in the Mid-west bitd.
I consider myself fairly new to the hobby, buying what are pretty much my first hobby grade RC's at the ripe age of 44. I drooled over the Tamiyas and Team Associated buggies that friends had as a kid, but my...

Thanks! I'm originally from Thun in Switzerland, but I've spent the 3 last years in Russia for professionnal reasons.
Hello folks,
Nice to be here, just getting back into RC, I haven't touched it since I was about 14 / 15. I used to race in England back in the day , I was on a real shoestring budget back then so had a Mardave Meteor and then upgraded to the Mardave...

It's crazy to think there is so much space there and just no tracks... :shock:
Hi everybody ,
I've been in the hobby off and on since the late 80's and collected vintage R/Cs whenever I could find them . I thought you guys might appreciate the collection . I'll try to knock the dust off and snap a few pics .

Welcome to the forum! How are Archie, Jughead and the gang doing these days? :mrgreen:
I'm getting back in after 23 or so years away from the hobby. I've got a new YZ-2 to race with but as I get back in, I'm stoked to see the passion for the cars that I raced back in the late 80's and early 90's. I'm certainly happy that I...

Welcome to the forum. If you love rc10's, you're at the right place. :D

Welcome to the forum, looking forward to some pics of your new acquisition.
So I got my first and only rc car way back in the early 90’s. It was/is an rc10 championship edition, ‘B’ stamp car. Ran great then but really just wasn’t into working on the car. So it sat in a Rubbermaid tub...

Thanks for the replies guys. Yes this motor is in good shape. I didn’t really run the car much even when I got it back in 90. Prob will retire this & upgrade.

I'll look into such products, I may just leave it as is. Just like my 1968 Iverson Rodarunner Bicycle. Its only original once!
Also, if anyone has any clue what edition this is, that would be wonderful in helping me decide on what to do with it.

I'm usually there on Thursdays from about 8 to midnight or so. Its a great indoor clay track, tons of traction, and the regulars are really friendly. Typically I've got some kind of RC10 with me for R&D.

I have an old RC10GT that I've been working on converting to electric. I bought it new in 2002 or so. Nitro just became too much of a hassle/annoyance for me, and with today's brushless systems it seemed like a no-brainer. It's a work...
