Walt's Hobby pics from back in the day

Post by falkin8er » Tue Nov 30, 2021 9:19 am

Hi all, this may be a long shot, but I used to race my RC10 B2 at Walt's Hobby in Syracuse, NY back in the 1990's and had a ton of fun as a kid. I no longer live in the area, and I understand the clay track has been replaced by a carpet track, but I was wondering if anyone happened to have any pictures from the track & cars from that era for the sake of nostalgia. Thanks!

Here's a scanned photograph of me (in the striped bell bottoms!) with my best buddy, James, with our Cox Sand Blaster's.

Nice pic :!:

And we have a thread for old RC pics that I think your Sand Blasters would fit into :wink:

I didn't see that thread! Is there a way to move this post there?

Yesterday I went to an old hobby shop south of me and asked if they had any old school RC10 parts squirreled away somewhere. The guy led me to the back room where over the work bench on a peg board were a bunch of parts. Heres what I got:

If you got the felt gaskets, tower, spacers, and rear arms at or below retail cost then you did pretty good.
