First test, Taking it easy as I'm not sure how strong the arms will be

Needs to go up on the spring rate, pleased though!

Well took the old old girl out again to Maritime, took a few clips of it running and it went viral after a share from rc car action, I'm up to 61k views!

Great for PR for vintage/my club

So some further work on my RC10, gone to AE BB shocks and used a 5mm taller fibre lyte front tower

Looking forward to testing the car tonight at my local club

The B5 wing mod is a good one, I have it on my car. Waiting for someone to copy my B5 wing mod on the *front* of my car, hehe. It does work too.

I'd never be able to get that white chassis dirty though.....looks way to pretty.

Some running footage on the big bores, needs a stiffer front Spring but a marked improvement over the kit team shocks

Bit of slow mo (apex missed by a mile!)

Still enjoying racing my RC10 on Astro, was practicing a few weeks back and busted a front arm, it was a printed arm and has held up pretty well but decided to go for the RPM front arms so I can confident of the strength and push the car hard on track

Looks good mate, question why the ball stud on the outside/front of caster block instead of inside? Didn't you notice any affects to handling travel etc? If you go back to std length arms on the rear you will get better handling an shock position with the RC10 rear hub and re re worlds/B3 rear wheels over the B4 ones... Just something to think about :wink:
