After change the ratio to 10/54 (see ratio chart here) the track is a little short, the RC10 is close to be finish.

Goes really well with that rebuilt motor!
Do, or do not! There is no 'try'!
RC; Boats, Buggies, Trucks, Bash's, Racing and of course 'VINTAGE'!

I just love everything about this nicely built & finished RC10 - from the lovely job on the bodyshell, including the driver & neat window netting (i'm going to steal that idea :wink: ), the installation of the 2.4ghz RX in the older case & the signs of gentle patination on some of the parts that gives it that real vintage feel 8)

The fact that you are enjoying it to the full by running it on an old-skool style dirt track really is 'the icing on the cake'..... great job! :D

Thank you very much for all your comments.

The RC especially Vintage is a passion that grabs me to the guts. I love to drive them (with caution) because they make my eyes shining like a little kid. :)
