I got this with my RC10 and I'm assuming it's for a road going variant or similar? Any ideas please?

That'd be my guess too, you can see where the three holes would line up on the chassis.

Yeah, they did line up which is why I suspected. I just don't know why it would have been with my Team Car. Strange.

Thank you

Most likely for Dirt Oval. Several companies made similar bumpers for mounting latemodel and street stock bodies onto the RC10. RC10 conversions were/are quite popular in DO.

I don't recognize your bumper though so I can't say if it's a manufactured product or homemade.

So the mount/bumper itself I am not sure, looks potentially custom/handmade. The hardware and the body mounts/posts are most definitely Schumacher. The pictures above are from my S.S.T touring car circa '97/'98'ish.

Excellent, thanks for all the pointers so far. Schumacher part, the plot thickens...

Looking for a lil' help from brushed motor experts...

A guy who used to race dirt oval in the 90s/early 2000s gave these to me a while back and I've never been able to figure out what they are. Both look like they have never seen a track, and while I didn't take them apart and try to count the copper I'm guessing they are 27T.

One is a Putnam, but I can't even find a picture of his brushed motors..only a handful of old threads about how strong they were.

The other one...I have no idea. Says "DR2 (something illegible) degree stock motor." It's not the picture. The label is blurred and you cannot read the number at the front.

I'm not a collector or hoarder, lol, just a guy who rebuilt a few old Losi cars from my childhood and I'd like to find out more about some of the stuff I "accidentally" accumulated during the process.

Second motor looks like a P2K. Trinity/EPIC based stock motor, 24deg. 27 turn. Real strong motors for stock class.

Obviously they are exhaust pipes ! I'm wanting to say 2 are Ron Paris pipes. I've ran them on rc10gt's. The ribbed looking pipe came on a rc10gt black pan . Any positive identification would be appreciated!

All three Paris, 1/8 stiletto, 1/10 stiletto, turbo ring.

Edit: after looking at the middle pipe again I'm not sure if those were designed for 1/8 or 1/10. It has a large exit like a 1/8 but the small size for a 1/10. I have a similar stiletto but the pipe hangar bracket is in the top.

Both look to be 27turn, 24* rebuildable stock motors..

The Green one looks to be a EPIC/Trinity Green Machine 3, and the DR2 looks to be based on an EPIC/Trinity P2K2 motor..

There were lots of different motor tuners back in the brushed motor days.. Some better known than others..

that first F1 car has tamiya parts on it. So my guess is a tamiya model. the second one looks schumacher-ish but can't help other than that.

Can't remember any cantilever suspension from Schum... can't remember a Schum F1 either ;)

Cantilever means exotica to me... this plus the tamiya damper, I'd bet on some kind of japanese origin. There's always been a variety of original japanese onroad designers and manufacturers, think Tech Racing, ABC, Kawada and the likes.

first one is defo Tamiya for sure!
