This is a great reminder of how crucial weight (or lack their of) was back in the day. It's no wonder that everyone in the world was cutting their cars to shreds! Every ounce mattered immensely!

I kinda miss it.

I love this build, that is a great car. I have seem to grow quite fond of 1/12 in the last few years.

So, this is one i am building to run... in fact it is going to be a back-up car for another unusual RC10 I am building for the UK Revival meeting over the summer. It therefore has a spattering of used and older parts, but will also have some nice...

Such a fun build to watch. When I was a kid, I was obsessed with weight reduction. I bought a red Blackfoot chassis for my Frog and proceeded to swiss cheese it. First curb I hit ended it's short life. Lesson learned early. That gold pan you have...

I actually cross-checked mine against a complete RC10 nose piece i have here and the angle is pretty much spot on. Considering how good Jamie was i bet he barely crashed with that car... although the whopping bumper added leverage i suppose!

Since I was switching out the outdrives in my RC10T4 FT from the regular units to the lightweight outdrives, I decided to weigh the three different AE outdrive options that were for the various versions of the B4, T4, SC10 and GT2.
