RC10Talk - The Net's Largest Vintage R/C Community

Thanks Dave. Yes, those are the scans I'm talking about.
I found 5 old used 25deg blocks, hopefully parts can deal some racing action.

CustomWorks #3241 rear hub is working nicely with two shims between spacer and bearing.

Yep...

Looking good, can't wait to hear a track report

YES, track report PLEASE!

OK, here it goes. With normal track conditions car felt rather good. Too bad that lasted only two practise rounds on Friday. I made the bestlap of vintage class in the first heat I ever drove that car. During the weekend we got more and more rain and my car just understeered more and more. With the struggle agains constantly changing track conditions in Modified class also, I just didn't have time to do anything for the RC10. I know now I should have used 4wd JC's DD fronts (or similar) to get bite on that muddy track.

Looks really good Niki, nice clean driving too. The track also looks amazing. The front didn't look like it had much bite but super smooth.

Are you going to continue to develop this car?

Thanks. Track is great (2011 IFMAR Worlds site) but I hated the muddy top surface created by weather. I don't know if they had done something to the track, but seemed like it never going to get dry/normal. Car was understeering and I just had to wait in the corners. Friday was better but there is no video coverage of that day.

At the moment this car will be my vintage runner. First thing I'm going to do is add more power!

Any update on the durability of this project and these parts?
