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

The goal of this project is to make a dedicated racer so I can stop breaking parts on my original Worlds Car :shock: I will be using a re-release worlds car as a donor, though admittedly few parts will be carried over. Here is the plan: -custom Single piece 1/8" 6061 aluminum plate chassis with...

I designed the chassis and had it laser cut from 1/8" thick 6061 aluminum.

Very nice!!
Was the chassis plate laser cut at your place of business or by another commercial service provider? Link?

Cut by theses guys:

My top five (but in no particular order): IRC Vulcan SE - This 1/16 scale Chinese nitro buggy was my first hobby grade RC. It was a pain in the ass back then, but I always regretted selling it. Now I regret buying another one! Original RC10 Worlds - I bought this a few years ago and raced it on car...

Meet up with Masaaki san and buy one of Masami's National Championship cars, they've been selling off a few from their collection.

Posting here for posterity, since the little thumb knob is often broken off of Novak switches: The little switch inside the translucent orange or black Novak switch housings is part number SS-12 made by a company called NKK. They are still available for little over a buck from all the typical electr...

Thanks to everyone that made it out! a little over 100 vintage entries, so roughly double what we had last year!

I actually took some photos this year: https://flic.kr/s/aHBqjBaxC9

I'll be there as well! Planning on running my B2 in 2wd, CAT 2000 in 4wd, XXT in ST, and an RC10 in Heritage.

Beautiful build, Peter! I'm surprised Pro10 isn't more popular than it is.

Here are the photos I took at the Vintage Showdown:

Wasn't sure if this was better suited for the RC10T section or the Rerelease buggy section. Here is a live build video I made yesterday: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VV12mj25PzY And here are the key takeaways/surprises from the build: 1. The Moto-Obscura bleeder shock caps do fit these re-release...

Did some testing and tuning the other day at World of RC with the RC10T Classic. I didn’t break any “real” parts, only two of the stock ballcups. Honestly if you’re going to run this truck it isn’t even worth it to take the stock ball cups out of the bag. They’re brittle, grip the turnbuckle far too...

Oops, I didn't realize there was a 10T rere forum! I posted my build tips and tricks and test results / setup sheet over on the regular old 10T forum. I think its pretty clear I intend to race my 10T Classic

Nice, that's a good idea! I just looked up the part number to order a set for myself, it's DTXC6171.
