Just wanted to say thanks to Jason for providing continuous tech support for the old but new builds I know others have chimed in too, but it seems like Jason has been quite devoted.

How long have these builds been going on now? Has to be at least 5 years or so by now.

it's been awhile. probably early '08 when i pitched the idea to paul, and he had the parts on hand to start running with it.

Didn't find by search..

When upgrading to b4 slipper, can I use #7485 ft v2 slipper hubs and #7486 slipper spring & washer instead of #9604 hubs and #9605 slipper spring?

Absolutely!

One more stupid question from newbie =)

I need body for my RC10CE, but is there a difference between ASC6121 Viper and ASC6160 Protech?
Can i just get the one that looks better? =) Or is there more bodies to fit?

What about the wings? ASC6186 is fine?

Hakase, just get which body you like better. Any wing (1/10th scale) should be find, again, pick what you like.

That body is swwweeeet!

Thanks. You know I mixed the orange with this gold metal flake I found in a bargain bin so in person it glitters. The royal blue is metalic too because thats what I had available. No way to get the camera to catch it tho. I learned a bit from your Thingy build btw.

Maybe a photo in direct sunlight will bring out some of the glitter...maybe

My buggy thingy was a fun build and is still going strong today. It's a build where I didn't worry too much about looks and focused more or the fun aspect of a RC10 that can be had without racing in mind. Your build looks just as sweet as the body btw.

Very nice paint job on that last 10! Perfectly sums up what's old is new!

here is my hat in the ring....standard recipe minus the gt front axels...have to get a set of inline blocks but is pretty much the standard recipe and handles awesome. i plan on another old is new buggy but it will be a cut down tub with b4 body. here are a few pics with 2 different bodies...let me know what you think.

Bump Steer ? Working on a WOIN project using the rc10t front suspension with klien arms , wide gt axles and proline b4 rims and stock CE c hubs and carriers.Also using the 10t servo saver. Getting alot of toe in on the dump steer . any help?

you're using the 10t steering bellcrank? so you have it set up long wheelbase?

Let me get a pic up .
