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

I have more RC10L rollers than I need, so the one with the extra holes in the chassis is becoming a street runner. Need to work out a battery hold down (not tape or Velcro strap) and a longer bumper to the front edge of body.

The tires and wheels arent really right for it, but the best non-new stuff I had in my box. Got a few parts to source or...

Update time...

I was held up on a few parts for this for a little bit. Now that it's pretty much all here it was time to get it closer to completion. Gonna be racing it next month.

Unfortunately, it could be any number of specs. Manufacturers routinely used the same cans and labels for their motors with the only difference being the winds. The only way to find out for sure is to take it apart to inspect the armature. CAM took the confusion further by not even using part number...

A nice Composite Craft chassis RC10 showed up. The only real bummer is that 4 extra holes got added for a JRX2 battery cup. I guess I'll get some practice filling holes.

Finally got this car completely done...the 💎 One outlined the windows....I got a working scr pack put in from Thumbs!... a proper machined slipper eliminator recommended by scr8p (nice piece) and a almost new Quaterflash stock motor to represent Thumbs glory days of rc 20230429_150815.jpg 20230429_1...

I thought for sure I posted this car when I first built it but I can't find the thread. Anyway, I decided to change up a few things to make it more like a proper speed run car of the period. These are the parts I added: - Tecnacraft Aero-Trac & diff hub - HPI front arm brace, pro rear upper plat...

Turning out to be a real slow cooked dish. Nice to not rush through the build and enjoy the adventure - after all there is no hurry with this one.
