Hi fellow RC lovers. My formative years were spent building and racing RC cars. My first hobby grade car was a Tamiya Hornet which I bought essentially the day it came to the local hobby shop in early 1985 or so. I had my eye on a Grasshopper and the shop owner steered me in the direction of the Hor...

Also thanks to the powers that be for this fantastic resource. I made a donation because you all are awesome

Pretty awesome, I always loved those cars, never saw one run but I am sure it was a sight to see. Keep up the good work!

haha no more or less so than most people I guess. Although I have jumped off that bridge and do know a few of the locals who were cast members. Man, people really love their Jaws that's for sure..

Whoa almost 10 years after this thread started and these words are still annoying. haha

I'm sorry if there is some crossover for the people on Facebook here, I literally joined FB so I could get on the RC groups (after many years of avoiding it). I've been working on getting the parts together to rebuild the RC10 I raced in the late '80s on the old school dirt RC tracks of the Northeas...

After getting through the sanding process, it was time for finishing. I much rather would have done the sanding on a machine but I currently have no shop as I am working on relocating my family to a warmer climate :) PXL_20220503_143933980.jpg PXL_20220503_143944893.jpg PXL_20220503_144001464 small....

Question for our more knowledgeable members.. I have been trying to find some new gold aluminum screws 8-32 for my RC10 builds and they seem hard to find. I've made millions of custom screws and hardware over my career, and I'm thinking of just having some made. Does anyone definitively know the all...

What a cool car, that chassis is awesome!

WOW! Somehow I missed this in all of my forum browsing. What an insane and awesome build, I love it!

Bravo man, bravo.

What an awesome build, it looks great. This is one of the kits on my bucket list for sure. Nice work, I'm jealous

I couldn't have been more than 12 years old the last time I did this build. Just need to find some CRP dynamite 2.0 rear tires and get some refinished shocks and hardware from Dave G and I'm good to go.

Making progress. I made the decision to do a little bit of RC assembly each morning before I go to work as opposed to trying to do it when I'm spent after a day of designing, talking, and being a dad. So far the results are promising. Got the transmission rebuilt today. It doesn't spin quite as smoo...

Another awesome one, Adam. And the template, how cool is that!
