Very nice build!

Testing the waters to see how much excitement there is, I can't wait to have a "NEW" RC10T! :wink: :wink:

Cool build!

Although I wish they still made those black honeycomb motor plates instead of just the blue ones!?! And offered the nose tubes and bellcranks!

The media the 10t that won the Reedy Race received...... I could see that truck being used to test the waters. And I guess now that this build is being seen by the public it could be used in the same way. But it wasn't really created for that.

I met Jason at the 2015 Vonats. A few weeks after the race he messaged me on FB asking if I would be interested in doing a build with him for the "Garage" on the Jconcepts website. I said sure. He gave me a call a few days later and we were throwing out ideas for some kind of vintage style race buggy. The call ended with a lot of ideas, but no real plan.

A few days go by and for some reason Cliff's Moo truck kinda pops in my head. So I thought... what about an modernized version of Cliff's Moo truck? Figuring the truck would be done in 2016, it would be a cool build to do for the 25th anniversary of the 10T. I pitched the idea to Jason and he was instantly on board. The barely used 10T donor truck showed up at my door a week or so later, and away we went. :)

Digging this truck build. I've started building my own Team Moo truck after digging out my RC10T I got 25 years ago as a kid.

So my understanding reading the article, is that the bellcranks were custom made since the RC10T has longer bellcrank parts. Any chance of those being put into production by Jconcepts?

I think if they were going to be made available it would have happened already. But, you never know.
