Thanks!
Tamiya Hornet rear tires (new from Tower Hobbies) and some out of package front tires from my
LHS.

So my brother works at our LHS on the weekends. A guy came in a few months ago with a box of old RC10 parts asking if my brother wanted to buy them. My brother said no (wife would be pissed) and to try Craigslist. Month later, the guy comes back. No luck on Craigslist and want to give all the stuff ...

Hay Chris,
I made the ROAR stickers. I have some sheet of very very thin double sided tape. I went online, found a good ROAR sticker image, scales it correctly, printed it out, stuck it to the sheet, coverd it with packing tape and then cut it out. Peel and stick!

Thanks Chris,

Have a great weekend.

Much thanks Mad Racer!

Hay dldiaz, Yes, a "Blue Collar RC10" I like that! Thanks! Yes, you are correct, old school 6 cell. My brother said the same thing. Just waiting on some dollars to upgrade the electronics and battery. Still in control with my old Futaba Attack but looking to get a newer remote too. Still a...

Thanks uniquenamehere! Trans brace and shock uprights all made form aluminum sheet. In a nutshell, I just took my carbon trans brace off, traced it onto the aluminum and cut/filed it to shape (same with the shock uprights) The key is to make sure all the mounting holes are correct. Once I have a rou...

Long time lurker first time poster. I got this originally back in 1992 in Santa Barbara. Ran it on the street for a few years ten shelved it as college became a priority. Pulled it out a few years ago, tuned it up and the fun began all over. Broke a couple parts and then realized that they are reall...
