Tim, would love to come by OCRC and look over your set up and discuss why you have done certain things...and have you look over my re-re racer :) I see you are running 17.5, blinky I presume? If so, what are you gearing (looks like a Mach 2 Reedy) and motor timing at? I think I have it geared at 30...

Great info Tim! Don't be surprised if I end up asking a bunch of question on how to improve my airbrushing skills. I would love to learn how to do those leaves and flowers!!! haha...well, they are actually supposed to be feathers followed by scales. :shock: Maybe I need to work on my airbrushing so...

Hey Tim, Couple questions about your car. 1. Is that a gyro on top of your servo? Was that used during the demo race last weekend? 2. How does that front body post work? It does not look like the std post. 3. Who did the paint on your shell? 4. I like the mini decal of mike reedy is that available ...

:lol: don't worry, i'll drop it as soon as they become available. :mrgreen: Haha....Point taken. I have bought up the demand to the powers that be and we'll see if we can get a run of white arms done....but don't hold your breath! Thanks Tim, if you would like an outside critique of your setup, I c...

Here ya go!

Hopefully, very soon. But I am not certain.

Worst case is they are available when the kit starts shipping, but rest assured there should be plenty to be able to stock up on!

Trans brace install fail! :lol: I face palmed too when I saw this. Someone else had assembled the transmission for photos and the press release was never passed by me to review. It's always frustrating when careless mistakes are made. The release was also missing the announcement of the new molded ...

Also, I would like to mention that this transmission case is actually from the original US made mold tool. Although, the topshaft is from the B4 since most of those parts are readily available and a common upgrade for most. Therefore, it made the most sense to use that as opposed to remaking the old...

sweet photos! If Tim chimes in again, I wonder which one he ran? the worlds car with white rims. kinwald had the other one.... obviously. the other 4 are classics. Ah, I heard that the second time I watched it. When he handed his car over to someone else. I guess I'll have to watch it again. I'd fo...

Yeah, unfortunately Cav hadn't really driven his classic and Louis (his dad) did not put the e-clip on the top shaft and then topshaft shifted to one side and no longer driven. Then later BK broke a ballcup on the double-double. Everyone else running a standard classic were also running the new JCon...

Before there were black... There were gold! Reedy Race RC10 Classic Race(Well... Demo!) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uVAufx6_WEw Haha...Luckily I had spent several track days running my re-re "worlds'" car/ prototype test car. And all the tuning I had done made my car a pretty unfair a...

Hey all! Glad to hear you guys are pretty excited about the RC10 World's Car re-release! And I just wanted to answer a few of the questions: You know you guys are the pinnacle of RC10 fans and this car was made to be a runner that is raced!! While retaining the spirit of the original car. The RC10WC...

Can someone point out the differences in detail between the Mirage SS & Turbo bodies? From doing a spot of googling I honestly cannot see how they are any different. The easiest thing to note is that the Turbo Mirage has an addition little scoop side-pod on top of the left side of the body. Als...

I dont think the quality is less. In fact its better in most cases. For the most part the parts go back and forth between new and old. Here is one that does not that folks could complain about if they wanted but I have a different take on it. I bought new Nose Brace tubes for the 4 original cars I ...

LOL you crack me up comparing a hand built supercar that sells for millions to a mass produced RC car that sells for $250. Not apples to apples at all man. And yes it is a poor business decision to build a mass produced product and not meet consumer demand. It honestly is Economics 101 specific lux...
