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

I have extra towers and some carbon fiber pieces to make a top plate and such. It’s my daughters first Rc car so she really wants to race it. I offered to buy her something else and she didn’t want it.

I’m currently rebuilding my daughters outrage in preparation for our new vintage class. It’ll be running a 60amp esc and a 17.5t motor and a reedy round stick style LiPo. It’s going to run the stock tires and wheels until I get some jconcepts for the rc10 classic. I’m having a couple issues though. ...

It took a lot of fiddling. The most difficult part was that the fact that the Ultima case takes 8x14x4 bearings and the re-release Optima takes 10x15x4 bearings. My first thought was to have the diff halves milled down. Then I was looking around on the AVID website and found 10x15x4 flanged bearing...

Have you done anything to the truck lately or still racing it?

I have a ton of stuff that I did to mine I can help with.

I'll take it

I was thinking the same thing.

That looks sweet.

The common diff rates are 7k-10k front, 5k center, 3k-5k rear. shocks are typically 30-40

I love the color. I can't wait too have some stuff done in that color.

I love the alternate as it reminds me of the TCP chassis.
