New RC10 Owner in KY

Hi everyone. Like many kids growing up in the 80s, I dreamed of owning the "ultimate" race buggy, an RC10. I've messed around with modern RC cars with my kids, but they don't have the same feel of the vintage cars. By chance, I met a guy with an impressive RC collection recently. Seeing so...

Possible Zebra RC10 CE... help requested

Hi all, I'm new to the vintage RC10 platform. My time as a kid was with Tamiya Grasshoppers, Hornets and Frogs. I always wanted a RC10 but the prices were way over our budget. I was recently re-introduced to the vintage RC world which re-ignited my desire to own the unattainable from my childhood. I...

Cool RC10 Progression Example... imo

I don't have permission to all the forums yet. If this is posted in the wrong place please move it or just delete. I'm beginning to learn about the different progressions the original RC10 undertook during its production. I was lucky enough to view an incredible collection of RC10s over the weekend,...

Re: Cool RC10 Progression Example... imo

I've seen/had the gray hard anodized shocks with black aluminum and black plastic caps, and gold shocks with gold aluminum and black plastic caps, but hadn't personally come across the gold with black aluminum caps. From the RC10 sticky, it seems the Zebra CE kits came with black aluminum caps on g...

Kyosho Javelin Arrives in KY

I'm so pumped to add another childhood dream machine to the RC garage. I couldn't believe I found this buggy close to me. I thought it may be a rere, but after seeing it in person, I knew it was an original. The cage and frame needs some attention but the Option House add-ons give it the period corr...

Re: Original Procat?

Nice Procat! Some did this chassis mod to the Procat and XLS saddle pack to lower the COG. This was of course not a theme as long as one drove the stick pack chassis. Looks like a mix of parts with transmission plates from XL/XLS, older screws etc. Procat rear wishbone bracket. The one way shafts (...

EXO Designs Ultima "Mid" Build

Hey all! I'm usually an all vintage guy. But I'm stepping outside my box to build an EXO Designs Ultima Mid. I guess you could also call it an Optima Mid 2wd conversation. Anyway, I have a set of aluminum wheels for an Ultima and I wanted to do something unique to showcase them. This kit caught my e...

Re: EXO Designs Ultima "Mid" Build

I'm curious as well. Could the front up-kick be a different angle? I'm also curious if Exo plans to re-stock this kit? I purchased the last one they had on the shelf. Here's a few pics of what's included.
