Re: Been feeling a little Blue
Wow, the buggy is looking amazing, I like the black and blue colors. Bummer about the fiberglass not taking a good dye though, I've never tried to dye and was thinking about it, maybe I will stick to the white, lol... Nice job though, I'm loving it...
RC10talk.com is like a bad accident, I just can't stop looking at it...

Re: Been feeling a little Blue
Thank you I am glade you guys like my buggy. I got a bunch of parts in so I will hae another up date in the next few days.
Don Martin bid the blue chassis, you wont find a nicer guy to Deal with.
he said he would a whole RC10 for under 50 bucks shipped back to you. his turn around time is pretty fast. and as you can see he does great work. [email protected]

Re: Been feeling a little Blue
Well a little more work, I am unhappy with the rear tower. I have been reading up on your all's builds and scr8p said in one truck towers belong on trucks not buggys and that really made sence to me. so I have a worlds tower on the way. I am still looking for a buggy tower to fit the truck front bulkhead. the undertray fits great, as does the RPM bumper. I tried to redye the battery brace, it still wont take the dye but it turned a blueish color that doesnt look to bad I can live with it.

Re: Been feeling a little Blue
front tower - first one pictured. make sure you get it with the nose brace tube holes.

or there's always the rpm worlds tower from fibrelyte.

Looks good Rick! You ought to think about cutting that chassis protector down to match the contours of the chassis. That would be slick...

Re: Been feeling a little Blue
Well as alot of builds go I decided to go in a different direction. I cut the sides off the bulkhead, and replaced the rear tower with a Worlds tower. and put in a set of A&L chassis stifferners. I am ordering a new worlds front tower from JayDub. I cant wait to get it done. but this whole waiting for parts reallty sucks. but my RPM bumper and gear cove did come in.

Looks good to me. In fact my nipples are at DEFCON 4. (Sorry, I watched War Games again last night.)bearrickster wrote:does anybody have any suguestion on this build I dont build many RC10's. and I may have missed something thay may make it run better? or am over building anything?

All I can think of it moving the rear shocks in, but if you ordered a buggy shock tower that will take care of it.

Re: Been feeling a little Blue
Yeah, the 10t rear tower makes the rear shocks way to vertical to handle well. But that new tower is perfect
