This car keeps surprising me all the time.... I'm also very interested in the shock towers. Did you get enough demand for it yet? Maybe you should start a new post on that topic as it is now kinda diluted in this thread... How much do you think they would end up being? I'm very interested...
Just found this thread & read through all of it..... what an awesome car!! Great inspiration for my Worlds car build - to even come close to this level of preparation & i'd be happy
I see siebenelch hasn't visited this site in quite a while - I wonder how he & the RC10 are doing now??
P.S; does anyone know; for reducing bump steer do you only fit the 4mm spacers on the outboard steering arms only?
Realized that after I hit send. It's Sten Hallock, and I was just thinking about wrenching (glueing?) in your garage bitd. PM sent to avoid hijacking this thread.
I have no idea, what is happened to Keil. He sold the company to Graupner and they let it die.
And I have no idea to get RC10 parts here in Germany. It´s so hard to get parts. Sometimes at Ebay, if you´re lucky. I try to get some parts from tower hobbies.
Here are the new shock-stays for the RC10 for fitting the B4-shocks perfectly.
I improved the shock-positions and made some extra-holes more inward, than the RC10T shock-stay allowes.
I hope, I get this parts before the Indoor race in 2 weeks. If they work, there should be no problem to make some more for you guys, if you want.
I will make them in fibre-glass and Carbon. I think fibre-glass is better, because it´s more flexible, than Carbon and will not break so easily.

Hi Michael,
Are you still interested in producing the shock towers? I really like what you have done here and would love to purchase some on carbon!

Answer,
Yes, this is correct. the qouted spacer is all you need on the outter control arm.

A tale of a true hero!
I'm fortunate to have one daughter from a previously relationship, and she means the world to me.
Her laughter makes me wanna be the best father to her, and her very existense makes everything else meaningless.
Sorry to bump...
Picked up this B2 about 6-7 months ago and well I can never leave anything alone so now it's outfitted with carbon fiber! Have to find an era correct motor and receiver for it.
Don't know why these came out dark..oh well

The way I was explained it, the B2 was designed to do ONE thing - win the 95' worlds at the Yatabe, in the hands of a very limited, selected few elite drivers.... and so it did :)

I watched the F1 car doing a demo at the USGP at Indy 4 or 5 years ago and it was unbelievable. Back then you could put one together for under $2500 but now days I think more like $5000 to 7500, unbelievable detail. They had a track laid out in the...
our '04 stratus was starting to nickle and dime us, and the trans was a few miles away from needing a rebuild. so, we figured it was time to unload it while it could still get to the dealership under it's own power. :lol:

Good points about the auto-stick...does an auto-stick EXIST that really lets you shift in a performance manner like a standard? The computer overrides anything you'd want it to do that's outside of what it considers safe . :? My Torrent has that too...
Long time lurker, first time posting. Anyway here's my ride. It started off as a completely red dyed car. Been slowly converting it to a more traditional looking one. Not sure if I got the pics correctly posted, but here we go. Pc110009.jpg rc10.jpg

Thanks for the compliments guys. How's the baby MOmo?
I think that color combo on the car really sets it off. If you have the time, I'd say go for it.
So far I've put about 3 hours in de-anodizing and another 4-5 in sanding because of the deep...
I bought this rc10 today and wanted to see what people think. The one question I had was if the slipper nut is tightened all the way down, and it still slips, what’s the problem? Any help is great.

Ah, of course! I'd bet someone used the wrong grease. Ball diff's require a special grease which is actually not an ordinary lubricant. I think maybe this happens often.
Anyway, it's good to learn that you've gotten the problem sorted out.
