RC10Talk - The Net's Largest Vintage R/C Community

Hey guys! Just wanted to share a few pics. I got this XX from Kijiji, it looks like the previous owner was a racer. It came with a ton of spares, almost enough for another build :)....including a Hydradrive and a NIP A-8040 body (for my next build). Currently I have a double slipper setup because I'...

That's so it can double as a colander!

LOL, I could definitely use that to drain cooked pasta.

Yup, good stuff. Works on shock shafts too. Good one! Didn't even think of that! Always good to see these tips pop up, I have a RC RaceCar from 91 with this as a "Trick Tip". Perhaps we should have a "Trick Tip" section :?: Any tips that would help someone with a restoration wou...

I'm sure many of you know this method of cleaning hinge pins, but it is new to me, and hopefully it might help a few people during their restorations and rebuilds.

Very nice, thank you both for the replies!

Hey guys, I'm currently tearing down an XX-CR, and I realized that I haven't seen the rear bulkhead that I have, anywhere. I also have a purple aluminum front tiebar that is Fantom, so I think the bulkhead might possibly be by Fantom too. Anyone know what I have here? Is it rare? http://i.imgur.com/...

Hey guys thanks for the welcome! 8rad - Nice I didn't even think there would be local people on here! Also, I know nothing about the car or who had it originally, so I don't know about the shocks...sorry man. integra22t - Sweet! I would love to race in the future, I should check the Kingston track o...

I wanted to use my first post here to say hello to everyone and say that I hope I can be an active contributing member! I love Team Associated and fell in love with the older RC10's when ...
