Here's my son's runner. Not much to say really. Stealth conversion, Castle 4600 brushless, FlySky receiver, White LED lights up front and Reds out back (not pictured). These are the only pics I have - its currently being rebuilt with a few newer pieces. But I thought these would be good enough to enter!

Here is my entry.

It's the ARRC10 Mutant. Rebuilt to be an endurance racer. With a double "shorty setup" it has 30min+ runtime.

The front is pretty much stock, apart from the shocktower protector. In the rear it has XXX-cr rear arms and MF2 hubs to accommodate the B4 style rear wheels

Well, I guess I'll throw my DS in and see if she floats

Here are few pics of my B3.

Here is my submission. This is my RC10 Classic / Worlds hybrid build.

I'll toss my ReRC10 in

I'll enter this month with a one-off: a FIBRE-LYTE Carbon Works Prototype RC10 equipped with a carbon molded double deck wing that I obtained right through the factory. It was in rough shape when I got it and restored it with 99% of original parts. The bodyshell is original as well and the only good picture I have of it mounted is with Yokomo rims I once tried to fit just to see how they looked. The car is obviously staying with the original HPI shoes.

Sweet...Don did the anodizing for the Barney Optima too. I remember when he first showed me teaser pics of that pan, when he was testing the process to do multi-colored anodizing on a single piece of aluminum. I love how the body paint matches the ano colors precisely!

Alright, poll is up.

Good Luck!

I've been wanting to do a masking with my local shop but haven't found a good enough project. It's not hard to do, but it's very hard to do correctly! Mad props to Don on that one!

Toughest choice yet for me. What a line-up!
