With the amount of these that are being purchased, there will be a flood of build threads coming. We don't want the new car to bury the o.g. new builds, replicas, restorations, etc., that already take place in our buggy forum. So the best thing to...
I got my first associated car ever, the RC10 worlds in mid February. I was hooked after a friend of mine Foong, let me drive his, and I was instantly hooked, it was so easy to drive, unlike another buddy's TLR 22. So I bought it , but did not have...

Our friend Alcyon said he'd go kick modern 2wd butts - I assume he meant at the track.

I think you are right Paul. I'm looking forward to hearing how Alcyon does at the races. I'm not going to hijack his thread. If I want to discuss setting...
What 7.4V 2s battery is everyone running with a brushless/lipo setup that fit in a standard RC10 classic rear bulkhead?
Are people just running shorty packs with foam spacer?
I am struggling finding a pack that meets the standard dimensions. I...
Last post
I also run a shorty in my gold pan, but run the one linked below in my worlds rere... which should fit the same as the classic. They fit the bulkhead and battery cup perfectly and have plenty of punch for a 50C (as much as my other 90C packs).
I got my Re-Re in the mail yesterday and I am super excited. I am going to build it and shelf it next to my Cadillac. Anyway, I was looking over the chassis and it seems a bit... off. I have a few pictures. Should there be the ridges and...

I find it very hard to believe that the re-re is of a lesser grade than the original. Should all be top notch stuff :wink:
I've read enough reports to make me feel that there were some substantial quality control issues. How about the top shaft...
Ok, so finally received mine since it was shipped to Mo (old address) instead of NY. Was excited like a little school girl when the box came in. One minor issue, the air pack shipping things failed and the box got a dent in it. No damage to the car...

Ok, so this car was raped for Re Re parts for my American Sprint Car. It's slowly starting to come back together though.
I'll try to fix the earlier pics later. But it's changed so much...first I was going to do a stock, then slightly...
I got my worlds today so I figured it would be a good time to figure out wtf Associated did. I have three scenarios all played out
-stock worlds case and idler
-6565 case with worlds idler and extra bearings

I'm in the middle of building a worlds car too. Mine seemed to have a bad top shaft. I put one in from an old T4 transmission I had laying around and viola! Smooth operation.
Overall, I'm a little disappointed at the quality of the materials...
For some reason I was content to watch everyone else build theirs when these first got into our greedy little paws, but didn't feel the motivation to start mine! I also waited for a few of the hop up parts I wanted for it and the painted body and...

Great work!, came together nicely, paint is awesome!
I'm looking for opinions on which tranny would work best for my re-re World's car this spring. My local track isn't huge and somewhat technical, but I've heard the owner will be making it larger this season. It's a fiarly high-traction track with...

Hi,
I wish someone had told me, about the 8.5 turn brushless limit. :roll:
well, if you had read the manual, it is there in print. This was just a recommendation, if you choose to exceed it then fine! Its not a rule. The gears are not meant to...
I broke down and bought the Worlds kit. I was going to go with the mono shock up front that I got from Jeff (Thanks Again! :D ) but after mocking it up, realized the front tube supports were going to be in the way and not having them on their just...

Finally after over a month of waiting AE sent me replacement parts! :D
They actually sent me two top shafts too. Not sure why but I will take it.
Case part # 6565-001
Idler shaft and gear part # 6570-001
Top Shaft B4/T4 part # 9601
Does anyone know for fact if this is gonna happen?? Will it be molded in white or black? Thanks for any info.

Yes, but as I showed in my video the idler is most of the problem :wink:
FYI, there is a guy that is making a replacement Idled gear for the new China stealth transmissions. The gears are aluminum and worked great in the tranny. It's a lot...
HI!... Just picked up this Team Associated RC10 World's car (re/re).
Last post
Looks good but i would switch out the front axles to the 6220 rc10 axles with those wheels since they are a different offset than the kit front wheels.
Is AE doing any more re re's of the cars or 10T?
I see Tower has discontinued the stealth tranny and no longer has the Worlds car on the site.
I was hoping for a re re graphite and 10T.
Any one in the know?

I would buy 2 sets of rear DS arms if they re-re'd them. :P
thanks for accepting me in the forum. I write from Milano, Italy. I would liked to ask your help:
I bought the RC10 classic re-release. Can you please suggest me the list of components ( Motor, esc, servo, batteries) that you think that...
Finally got around to it, as I just couldn't pass on one at $199 shipped from AE.
Decided to leave the chassis stock for now, see how it does. Opted for one of Atomik Racing's HD1207TG servos, as I've found this product line to be excellent...
A good friend of mine who's into off-road racing convinced me to get a car together for a local track on October 11th. Since I've had my World's Re-re collecting dust since I bought the kit, I decided to give it a shot. I've never raced off-road...

Thats it. The stock worlds case has a different part number (6564)
6565 is old moulding USA case
6564 is new improved China case
Now that the anodized parts for my ReRe projects are in, it's time to get building!
I think I have most of the parts on hand to complete this one except for the new Lunsford Worlds Retro turnbuckles I just ordered and maybe a few other little bits...

what rear shock tower is that I like the wing mounts?
The rear tower is just a short World's 3mm tower from RC Carbon Works. The wing mounts are from the B5M kit (91531).

Looks good! ...?...
Hey all, this is first post territory, so go easy on me!
I've recently bought an original RC10 (at this stage don't know what stamp it is, will find out when it arrives) and I want to do the shell as per the box art, as those ads in the 80's really...

Excellent, thanks for that Scr8p!
Incidentally, is the pro-line body (available from the AE website) accurate to the original? I know that the classic had different webbing, but considering I'll be cutting that away, its not an issue for me.
It all started with the thread that Cedric did on his replica of Brian Kinwalds 1993 WC car.
I've read that thread over and over again and it's such a beautifu car.
Now with the rere of the world's car I immediately put down a pre-order and waited...
Once the shock bottom cap is tightened the shaft is so misaligned it won't move! :evil:
Anyone else run into this?
Hard to get a good photo, but

Simple, just remove the shock shaft and orings, run a drill bit thru it, wobbling side to side to clearance it, then reassemble. That's how the (eBay) pros do it :lol: Lmao!
That's probably one of the first shock bodies I have seen misbuilt....
Just picked up a World's Car in the recent discounts. Decided to go with a FT blue screw kit for it. I did end up needing a new top shaft as the one that came with the kit was just not smooth. Here are a few pics of the build so far.

The problem also might be a bad transmission case. I sent my transmission to AE for the same reason and they concluded that the case was the issue. It has been replaced and the transmission is on it's way back.

B44 axles are still too long for use with stock arms and B4 rear hubs, you need a Yokomo Bmax2 rear bone to make a hybrid cva. You'll still need a custom works spacer and B44 front low profile nuts.
