I also just got some of those Traxxas Bandit rear tires, rather aggressive compared to what everyone else offers.
So I'm growing weary of having an older, larger laptop at home in place of a desktop and traveling with a netbook that is starting to feel slower with each trip, not to mention having files in both places and not being able to keep track of...
Falling down a rabbit hole on fleabay one evening while looking for a Hydra Drive for my RC10 Worlds project runner I stumbled across the wreckage you see below which I was hoping someone might be able to help me ID. Of all the years in the hobby...

Baller status :mrgreen: love it. Well if thing turns out as good as I hope, I may have to start hopping it up.
Speaking of baller, although the chassis didn’t sayyy Graphite...at least it looks Graphite lol
I'm fairly new to restoring vintage RCs. I have an early RC10T that's a reasonably clean runner, an RC10GT I converted to electric, and a handful of other, less vintage stuff. I just picked up what I thought was an RC10 B2, but it turned out to be a...

That first video was awesome. Great editing and choice of music. Very professional looking.
And the suicide run across the street and the tire magically appearing was priceless.
I play guitar and bash RC cars, older and newer, for fun.
Brand new to this forum, will be lurking and toe dip posting for a while.

Hi Doc and welcome aboard! :D I hail from a tiny burg near Springfield Il. Been in Al since '96 (I came here for the Waffle House :wink: ). We have a lot of members from Il; I reckon RC was very popular in the Mid-west bitd.
I posted my intro already - but I thought I would post here w my Kyosho stuff. I don't know where the Progress came from - but it is fairly complete and looks like it would be easy to get rolling again. Parts look pretty hard to come by...

Nice project car. As you said, they were fairly advanced technology back in the day. They didn't sell well, though. The 4WD & steering added a lot to the weight and the cars couldn't compete on the track. Compared to the Optima series at the time,...
I'm Trevor from Halifax, NS. Like a lot of the rest of you, I dug out my old RCs after 20 years of being jammed in a box somewhere. I have 2 RC10 gold pans, a busted up Turbo Raider and a Kyosho Progress.
Hi everyone, I guess I always knew it would come full circle, back to RC to me. I had an RC10 as a kid and started my RC addiction with a Hornet. The RC10 ended up so modified that it was barely recognizeable and I sadly sold it in highschool.
Now...

Bumping my own thread here. :P
I think I got pretty close (thanks to Jim at Winning Edge Design) to a reincarnation of my childhood RC10 with color scheme and Bud's bi-level wing. I don't think I'll go down the path of removing the aluminum...
