If anyone is in eastern Washington, B&B Hobbies in Spokane still has one Worlds kit. Almost bought it for myself, but I have enough cars.
Watcha doin in Spokane? I actually love going to Spokane, plus A A Ron lives there!
I was there for work. When I travel I try to visit the local hobby shops just to see what they have. I picked up a t-shirt, tire zip stix, some tires and wheels, and glue.
Darn it, I sold one of these not long ago for like $175. Now I am moving from my Losi phase into RC10's and want it back. So are these really all gone then forever?
Yes, discontinued. You can still find them in the $250 range for a new sealed kit. Which is what they went for when they came out. So it's not as bad the classic kits.
I have finally found a source myself. Local source willing to sell to me for $250 cash for NIB. 240 if I take 3 or more. LOL. I just can't bring myself to buy more than 2 right now.
What are the thoughts on the all inclusive kits being offered by I guess team Associated. I noticed they offer a kit for $760 to include ESC, battery , motor and servo. I am hearing there is a similar kit with a mod motor being offered for $499 but...
Just wondering if there is anywhere to buy a full 'kit' of wheel bearings for the RC10? Also, I know that metal shielded bearings are not the best, but then what is the best? Rubber? Ceramic? Can you buy bearings in different ABEC ratings?
Looking...

Flanged 5/16 x 3/16 for the A stamp rims. I think unflanged on the CE rims it has been awhile.
Metal shield bearings work just fine. But you like rubber...
I just read the Model Cars RC10 review at the scan archive and apparently the first generation RC10 included adapters for Tamiya wheels. If someone here has them I would really appreciate a pic as I never seen these anywhere. I guess at some point...

Well I no longer have those parts, so can't offer you visual proof, only my word as an officer and a..... oh never mind!
When were the first Aftermarket suspension arms offered for the original RC10. In 1986 in Colorado after I was out of racing I would still visit the track occasionally.
I don't recall seeing any aftermarket commercial arms on the cars that were...

1) When did RPM come out with their wide arms?
2) When was the A&L trailing rear end kit (cox clone) first available?
3) When was the MIP kit first available for the RC10 that is shown at this link?
Want something better than the stcok servo saver in my goldpan and was wondering who (besides associated-have had 0 luck finding any) made ball bearing bellcrank steering kits for the RC10?

Standoff height is determined by placing the hex portion of the aluminum on the top or bottom
of the bellcrank, and the Putnam ones won't work on a older car because they have a fore/aft
hole system for ackerman & bump steer that will connect with...
I have the opportunity to purchase 2 NIB. Vintage Team Associated RC10 buggies. One is a Gold Pan, the other is the black pan version. Both have the Stealth transmissions inside the kits. Both appear to be in the original boxes with the original...
