RC10 bell crank bushings

I managed to crack the steering bell crank with a high speed cart wheel on my vintage team car. I talked to associated and the design has obviously updated the design in the last 25 years. I emailed and they said i could uae the new design with no issues. So I ordered them (part 6254) and set out to...

Re: Another Vintage Team Car back in action

Got the rears all mounted and glued up and decided to take the rc10 for a spin. I went in and manually adjusted some settings with the sw3 since I didn't have reverse. I put in a little punch control since I figured the anaconda tires will hook up on the street, and added some timing for good measur...

Re: Another Vintage Team Car back in action

That won't bother me :) Looks nice. I will have to run mine wingless to see how it looks too :) Can these wheels be dyed? My tires are here but still waiting on wheels. Ordered the fronts and rears from different places.. I still need to get some ball cups and what not from associated. I will have t...

Re: Another Vintage Team Car back in action

Well, i was able to cobble something together to get the my rig running from the lhs, but I think I will still order the correct parts from associated. Out of curiosity, i downloaded a speedometer app to see what the the ole team car could muster with the new motor and esc combo. I was a little nerv...

Re: Another Vintage Team Car back in action

Well, I broke something today. The rear slid sideways into a small curb/Ledge and the screw that the ball cup attaches too (above the rear arm), broke. The ball end detached and part of the of the bolt remained in ghe rear shock tower/bulkhead. I am shocked the aged plastics did not break. Looks lim...

Re: Another Vintage Team Car back in action

Well, the gorilla glue was a success. It definitely has plenty of power. Possibly a little too much...so maybe just enough :) It still wants to throw the ass around when I give it full throttle, even going straight on the street. I need some better tires that will be ok on the street. Any recommenda...

Re: Another Vintage Team Car back in action

Well, this thing definitely rips with the new motor and esc! I put the new spur and losi 22p pinion in it and it moves really well. Lots of power. It is spinning the tires off of the wheels, so I will have to take care of that. It will also do donuts from power from a stop with the front wheels stra...

Re: Another Vintage Team Car back in action

The only rpm arms I saw on their site said that they would not fit the Team Car. Looks like the b lack ones are back in stock at associated though. Maybe I will pick those up and a 2.2 f/r kit from them too. My sw3/5700kv combo came in yesterday. I should have it rolling this evening. I am curious t...

Re: Another Vintage Team Car back in action

So, I ordered a 5700/sw3 combo, new 81t sput (just in case) and a 22t losi 48p pinion. They should be here on Wednesday. What should I do for arms? I have crack in one of the oem front arms. I would like for the arms to match. What are my options? If i am switching arms, is there a way I could moder...
