I had a similar experience with RPM parts that were left soaking for a while, except mine turned green. They were in laundry detergent and some bleach and they turned sort of a glow-in-the-dark green. I thought they were ruined, but I built the car anyway. Eventually, they lost most of the green tint and came out looking pretty good.

I bleached a set of team car rear hubs once, and they turned bright yellow! and after about 2 months of sitting they came back--the gear cover is only a touch darker than the new parts and
it should lighten up after a month or so. And the servo mounts are AE 7336's from an early B2-and
I have one more set left for another build :wink:


I did not know the early B2 came with white servo mounts, I thought only the servo arms were white. This is great info!

so why the rpm tranny? isnt that the gear ratio for the rc10t to except new faster brushless motors?

probably because it says RPM on it. :wink:

not to mention, a rc10b4 buggy has a 2.60 trans. so, it's not like a 2.65 in a buggy is way off base.

Really nice build Reg. Glad the RPM Parts cleaned up nice! Did you end up using the small spring isolators? I didn't know if those were an RPM deal or not, I've never seen that style before, but they were on the shocks so I sent them.

59burst hooked me up with a Yoke kit with the same isolators and lower spring retainers that were similar to the RPM kit (that I can't seem to find) so I didn't use them, but they are correct for the
quick clips to have that--

Nice build! Where did you get the idea for the slimmer chassis? Was there a manufacturer who made these?

When did they make the worlds chassis? Was it after the worlds car came out?

It was the last chassis right before the B2
